"Areas for improvement" is used as a softer way of saying "negative traits". Occasionally that leads to incongruities. I thought this was obvious and accepted, but I guess it can work some people up. Also Scout, wanting money, makes you pay for their serious evaluations, but since you seem get worked up over imprecise language, it would probably be best if you skip it.

Who writes this BS? Women do. 

Just 2 years ago, Scout put out it's eval of Jabreel Black.  Strengths were listed as:  Body control and balance, intensity/effort and explosion.  It's obvious that a woman wrote that.

And now Scout is saying that Garnett's strengths are: Body control and balance, flexibility and "Drive blocking skills".  The arm length thing sounds a little freaky to me, but whatever.

I rest my case.

I will be willing to sign an affidavit swearing that I have never once in my life evaluated a member of the male species on the basis of his arm length.  Nor have I even noticed such a disparity among the members of said species with whom I have come in contact.

And if I recall correctly, the NFL draft gurus criticized Brandon Graham for his deficient length of arm.  There could not possibly have been a woman among them, because one look at his smile would have been sufficient to blind them to all else.

Aquaman...it is truly disappointing that you have regressed to stealing information from other sites and presenting it as your own.  Not to mention some of it is just made up.  People on this board deserve better.

no trolling or flaming going on.  everyone gets upset on any board when one of their "insiders" is accused of stealing.  fact of the matter is it happens often.  his info on armani reeves was ripped from scout and rivals.  info on garnett was largely conjecture with the exception of a facebook quote.  i don't make this stuff up or look to flame.  i've follow this board for a long time, i just didn't post.  since TomVH left, there has been a ton of stolen or made up info on this board.  Just the truth, sorry if it upsets you.

Aquaman is having documented phone interviews with these recruits. That's where a lot of his information is coming from. Are you suggesting he's making it all up!? Again you need to specify with facts and data if your going to level accusations!

Hmmm, Aquaman swims in water, water is clear, like . . . glass?

Holy shit, Aquaman is Stephen Glass!  Now this all makes sense.

When Aquaman's next report states that he spoke to Jordan Diamond during a computer hacker's convention, that will be a huge red flag.
