This guy is CLEARLY full of baloney. This bogus list that matches EXACTLY the one that was posted on Deadspin appears on the NBC web site seven minutes later, and he expects people to believe he got this from "sources." I've seen this Dienst guy on NBC a bunch of times, and I've never trusted him or these mysterious "sources" he's always referring to. This just proves to me what I've always believed: that he rips stuff from the wires and the web and pawns it off as his own. That measly retraction NBC posted is not enough. The players whose names were smeared should sue NBC for defamation of character, and Dienst should be forced to explain himself and take some real heat.
