The #Colts have traded Dwight Freeney to the #Patriots for a 4th round pick in 2012, and a 2nd in 2013.

Great trade by Colts, getting two high picks for Freeney, who is a 1-year guy who's playing out of position at OLB. And making 19 mill

Twitter drives me nuts. I don't go on there, and I wish Irsay didn't either. Hahaha.

That said, if Kravitz considers himself a serious journalist, shouldn't he be confirming this report prior to remarking on it? He is supposed to be a reliable source of Colts information as a beat writer, and should be getting such information from the team, not from an Adam Schefter twitter report, even if it was the real Schefter.
