It depends on the type of info. If Clayton, Mort or Pastabelli say they hear that x team has interest in y player, I usually lend that credence. But when the experts make predictions they are no more accurate than half the posters on this board. Now there are some I never believe. Prisco comes to mind. I never read his stuff unless it's posted here. I used to but soo much of what he writes is tripe that I never go to CBSsportsline anymore. And btw my disdain is irrespective of whether they are writing positive or negative articles about my team.
