Put me on the list of people who doesn't think threads like this are good for the board. But it's also a free country, so post what you want, and we can all read what we want, I get all that.
I think you should either say what you heard, or just don't say anything at all. Just creates a lot of useless noise, whether or not you are trying to impress people that you know something (I don't think that's the case here).
What's worse, is after the news inevitably comes out, it will be viewed by many as a defense of the original post. But that's not really the point at all.
