Let me just say that through the IP addresses she posts from, I have good reason to believe that she's legit.
And I think the fact she's mentioned at least twice that Bruce can back her up adds credibility as well. It's not her fault if nobody actually takes her up on it and asks Bruce.
What does credibilty mean? That she actually works for the trib or that she has inside information that she can only hint at while sounding important?

 

I can believe the former and I question the latter.

I suppose. I kind of stopped caring about credibility on this board once I realized it's just a MB and not in and of itself a source of truth. If I can't check the real sources, then I'll just do what comes naturally, take it with a grain of salt. No one on here knows who anyone is anyway, outside of Bruce who is probably more brave than any of us to let it be known his actual identity.

 

If I'm not going to reveal who I am, then I don't feel like I should demand anyone else do so. And I'm not going to reveal who I really am. That's just my 2 cents.

I agree. The entire point of this (it really is pointless however) is that normally people don't make acusations about having inside information and then say "trust me" and get to get away with it. No one is asking the person to reveal who they are. However at the same time I don't think it's proper to float inuendo either.

 

I guess it's the principle of the matter and it's gotten way out of control. Anyway, whatever.

I think when the Cubs are playing well people need something to be pissy about.

 

Look, I also get why folks might be skeptical, but what they forget is that admins can see IP addresses and snuff people out if they choose.

 

In any case - its just a message bd.

Mine is this great radio station. Oddly enough, the broadcast range exactly matches the diameter of my cranium. :-s

hey guys im mgl. that's what some of you think, at least.

 

I don't know if somebody else mentioned that or if it was just me, but I was half joking on that due to your similar styles/knowledge.

 

You're not nearly the jagoff mgl is.

what the hell is an mgl

 

thank you.

 

that is just one of many things in this thread that have baffled me. cubinny's bizarre tirade is still #1, though.

I once asked her if she worked for the Tribune company, and she took offense to that.

 

It's okay. I wouldn't wanna work for the Tribune either.

How about we get back on topic rather than make you the focus of attention?

Why is this still going on?

 

Everybody can decide for themselves who is and who is not a legitimate "insider", and what alleged "inside information" is and is not credible.

 

So believe what you choose to believe, and ignore the rest (and let everyone else here do the same). It should be no skin off of anyone else's back either way.

mgl created uzr and works for the cardinals
And I thought mgl was an abbreviation for muggle (had to throw in a Harry Potter reference with the release of Book 7 tomorros). :D
