I'm confused. Justice only trusts his own reporting on this, and in support of that, cites the numerous times he's been fooled? Assuming someone was willing to confide in him, why would this time be any different from the others? Couldn't the Texans (or Dunta's agent) just give him a bunch of BS? How does he think he can tell the difference?
Also, I love his research. He made one phone call to Dunta's agent, one of the very people that he claims always lie in these situations. Further, why is it when Justice relies on what someone tells him, it's "research," but when others do it, it's "stealing."
Finally, I've noticed on numerous occasions with Justice and McClain that when they get specific, technical questions; particularly about the cap, contracts, etc., they clearly have little working knowledge of the subject. Thus, rather than address the specifics, you get vague "NFL contracts are complicated documents" boilerplate responses. But, let's assume that's true and NFL contracts are that complicated, seems like there might be a market for someone; oh, I don't know, maybe a sports reporter in a major media market, to the learn those intricacies and thus, provide a useful service for his readers. Crazy, I know, but it just might work.
