It takes time to build sources. It is why JT scoop every LA based reporter on the roster moves.
As far as the internet.... If it on the net it is TRURE. Please spare me. Not a name behind with sources not going there.
I will spare you because I id not mean that. In the 90's, VHS tapes might have been available, but it might hard to get game tape on every game...Let alone tape that keys on a certain position player throughout the year. They didn't have youtube in the 90's, where today you can see whole games (or at least hi-lights) of games....These commentators should have the ability to be conversant about the team, beyond Goff and Fisher,.....and they mostly are ignorant, which is their fault.
