You know when a journalist says, "a source with the team" has said... Do reporters like Mort throw some ESPN dollars the sources way to find things out like who will be the starting QB, or something like that? Or do the sources talk cause they jsut have big mouths?
I've always wondered about this. I assume local reporters have an easier time getting info out of their sports teams because the teams probably feel obligated out of good faith to provide the reporter with inside info. But ESPN is national so maybe they have to throw some dollars around. If they do throw money around, how much do you think they have to payoff these sources. Say for example, when they were trying to find out if it would be Griese or Fiedler starting.
