    "Source now says Orlando has decided against pursuing tampering charges against Houston due to lack of information. NJ possibility remains. "

    Morey graduated from MIT...He knows how to keep his files hidden.

    Lulz. Sampson is a tampering pro, & (from personal experience) an @$$40l3-person. His hiring here was one of the worst news briefs I ever got post-accident.

    Okay if this isn't Morey inception I don't know what is.

    He obviously planted the idea that McHale was innocent in their minds.

    Sick play Morey, sick play.

    Now, if Orlando "not pursuing charges against Houston" only mean that they had agreed in principle to a trade for Howard...Let me dream for a moment...

    That might be true but how do you prevent this? These guys are really close and they can be riding on a Yacht and just shoot the breeze about the possibility without anybody knowing..

    Doesn't matter what you think...a GM meeting with a player under contract is tampering.

    no ****. the point of the comment was why? stupid rule is stupid rule... unless someone can point to a viable reason for why, in this instance, it isn't stupid.

    Unfortunately, Stern has been trained to defend against inception.

    It is not a stupid rule, just because you say it is. They have to be invited to talk about players. You are supposed to call the other GM. You are like saying there is no way to do a trade unless you can talk to the player. No....you call the other GM.

    dude

    I have no idea what you are getting at. Trades are between GMs...not GM to player.
