If you read what he posted it is quite clear. Of course it isn't confirmed, where does he imply it is?
I read what the title of the thread says. There is NO breaking news here at all. Its misleading and implying that something really is happening. My guess is that if a Mod hadnt started it the thread would already be locked.
You must have missed the large, red RUMOR tag.
In response to your last point, when threads like this show up we try to find some basis for them (a link) and, if it exists, we label it as a rumor. If no link, we may lock it.
The next time you want to complain about the staff, would you please PM the mods or - if it is really critical - PM Oscar? Thank you.
Really? Because I didnt see anything about a RUMOR in the title of this thread. All I saw was.. BREAKING NEWS which would indicate that something actually happened. Again, misleading and false.
People criticize the Mods in this forum on the site every single day. Some time it isnt deserved and some time it is. We have every right to do so as long as it is not inflamatory or rude. My comment was neither. Thanks so much though for your response.
Look again and you will see the LARGE RED BOX THAT STATES "RUMOR" directly to the left of the thread title. If you missed it, that is on you, not the thread creator - mod or not. So, in a nutshell, your comment was wrong and should have been handled differently in any event. No amount of spin, justification, or after-the-fact complaining will change that. Than
LOL I do believe that RUMOR part was added later but whatever. Ridiculous rumor that had no basis whatsoever. It certainly was NEVER breaking news.
Thanks again for your feedback though.

so..
anyways...
if Gruden does come back to the Rahhydeeeees , alot of bandwagoners will jump ship. Gruden knows our team very well,(except for maybe Delanies' name)
I'm sure Gruden will still get the boot within a year or two regardless. lol

BREAKING NEWS: John Gruden and the Oakland Raiders
This is all that I see on the title of this thread. I dont think I handled anything incorrectly as it is MY opinion, based on what I see from the title of this particular thread, that this was not breaking news. Thanks again though for your comments.
Are you on mobile? Cuz the red tags dont show up on mobile

lol ok, dude. You are right. This thread is completely misleading and we've really given the creator special treatment here. How awful of the mod staff and site in general! What a fraud it is that has been perpetrated upon you!
Feel better now?
