My favorite source to hear about as a sportswriter during the NFL free agency madness is the ubiquitous “source close to player X”. Who is it per se? The agent, perhaps wanting to scare another team into a better offer for their client? One of the players entourage just running off at the mouth? The team GM with the intention of swinging favor with the press and the fans towards the team and away from the player? Well a source close to Randy Moss claims a 3 year, 27 million dollar deal is on the table right now and Moss is contemplating signing it. The recent loss of Asante Samuel means that Pats fans will have to hope that this Moss source is well connected to Randy. I for one hope it is a strange, grudgemaster genius in a gray hoodie.
