Put some weight in the source's credibility, for god's sake. If you don't know who is posting the information, then you should be assuming it's wrong until it's corroborated by somebody who you do know.

If you see Schefter, Rapoport, Jeremy Fowler, JP Finlay, John Keim, Ben Standig, or somebody like that confirming it then you can believe it. And if this unknown person on Twitter is right enough times and corroborated by other credible sources, then you can start lending some credence. Until then assume it's bullshit.

Jesus Christ guys, critical thinking much?

i just noticed the blue check mark, what does that even mean in the twittervers

Prior to the Musk Twitter takeover, blue check marks indicated that the account was a verified public personality account (i.e. celebrities, journalists, politicians, etc., etc.). However, nowadays, any yahoo can pay to have a blue check on their Twitter account.

I know that that sale of the team has been covered by the financial media. But, from the sports side, this type of breaking news will only come from the likes of Schefter, Rappaport, Fowler; or local reporters like Keim, JP, Standig, or Nicki Jhabvala.
