We’ve reached the point of the offseason at which we’re reporting on reports that reports were improperly reported. Or something like that. My point is that the slow trickle of news has combined with a perpetual thirst to create an unintelligible echo chamber, the cacophony from which can be deafening. Lucky for you, my metaphorical earplugs make it all sound like so many wire brushes, so I’m able to distill a little salience from the mess.
Okay, so that’s a little over-the-top, though I do think there’s something to be said for kind of putting the various rumors together like pieces of a puzzle.
