You mean, like how Schilling once posted on SonsofSamHorn?

If that's happened, I don't think anybody is aware of it.

I think Simmons posted/lurked occasionally, at least on the old board. He was sportsguy33 if I remember right.

One of the other old coots might know better than I.

I am convinced there have been some media members who have (or are still) posted here secretly, or at least read the page.  I have definitely gotten the impression that Gorman has been here before.  I think Simmons did too, years ago (although I am not sure he ever participated).

I could believe it with Gorman.  He appears on podcasts with the RedsArmy guys, so at the least he's not above talking to us Internet folks.

Maybe Rondo likes to come on the board and troll haters by proposing stupid Rondo trades and seeing who says yes.

I've certainly seen media stories (including some by Simmons) mentioning facts/theories that have been discussed at length here.

We obviously don't have a monopoly on ideas, but occasionally it's something so precise or trivial that it seems like it can't be a coincidence.

I'm not criticizing, either, or whining about it. If I wrote for the Globe or ESPN Boston I'd certainly lurk here in search of story ideas, or at least to get the pulse of the fan base.

Chris Wallace said goodbye to the Celtics fans on here. Simmons posted a bit.Various members of the front office read the site, although I don't know if they have accounts.
