Worst yet (and who knows if the guy responsible posts on this board), we had a fan take a SPECULATION/ANALYSIS article from NFL.com and turn the content from that article into a fake news report on the Bleacher Report (i.e., Jared Gaither). What's worse is that this fake article gained so much traction that Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk.com had to come out and call BS on it.

Webzone members, unless you have a web link, photo, or a concrete radio reference for your inside information, do not try to be Adam Schefter. You are not him. Resist the temptation. Be yourself.

Go Niners.

Yeah that's pretty fun but for real getting Jared Gaither would be friggin badass.

See this guy? This is Adam Schefter. He is a television analyst and NFL insider for ESPN. He also did similar work with the NFL Network and NFL.com before moving to ESPN last year. For the greater sports media and NFL fans in general, Schefter is the guy to look to for the latest and most accurate information regarding potential roster changes in the NFL.

Members of the Webzone, I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you, sitting at your computer, reading this post, ARE NOT ADAM SCHEFTER.

Somewhat randomly, there's been a recent surge of individuals on this board who would like to think they are, indeed, Adam Schefter... or maybe Chris Mortensen or John Clayton, but that's neither here nor there.

The fact is that recently, we've had Webzone members post information as "rumors" without web links. We've also had Webzone members re-post information broken by REAL reporters and try to take credit for it as their own "scoop."

Though I will never claim to, there are indeed some people who have some inside connections. Before I left another website for the zone, members would post new Niner news 1st often. There were several times that normal posters like you or I posted new Niner signings before anyone else, proven cause many times it was several minutes before beat writers or national media types. News that they said in advance they were working on.

In other words, just because YOU don't know anyone on the in, doesn't mean nobody does. Plus this is a fan site, stop being the fun police.

Have fun, but c'mon, its simple, dont post "news" without any links or evidence to back it up. Starting rumors isnt fun. Also the reason why most news outlets delay their scoops is probably to check the sources for credibility. I trust Adam Shefter's sources much more that random innanet forum fans.

technically the Jared Gaither did have a link
I am Adam Schefter.
My source, who happens to be a league insider, informed me that they're all full of s**t and that this would continue to happen as long as the Internet is around.

Good day
Well of course man, everyone on the zone is Schefter, and they all know more about football than everyone in our Front Office...

So when I was a kid my family and I were vacationing in Miami. We went to the beach one day and I feel asleep. Well, with my fair skin I usually need SPF 50 or more. But on this day I forgot to put it on. Needless to say I went home so sunburned I could barely touch my skin. That day I was thankful that my grandparents grew fresh aloe in their front yard, I can tell you.
