If you're following everyone who posts anything about sports at any given time then I suppose that would work as "a single site" that is better at breaking news. I'm not sure I'd rely on that as an overall breaking news site as much as I would CP just because I wouldn't be following every potential source. JMO.

Yup. And if I don't follow someone who posts something sports related that's interesting, someone will likely post it here within a couple minutes.

If you follow sports fans, which most people here probably do, and a few news guys that break stories, you're going to see it pretty fast. It just gets retweeted by other people even if you miss the original tweet at the time.
All the ESPN, FOX sports, and Yahoo guys get it on twitter first before anywhere else these days. Because it's a matter of minutes before it's all over the place, so they just tweet it out to be first.

You can die in a fire for not making it a public poll.

The poll is ****ed up. Learn English!

Is there a single better site for breaking sports news than CP?
1) Yes... CP is my main source too
2) No... it's a bulletin board and not always reliable

Not quite a site but Twitter. Other than that I would say no.

Retweets...people talking about things out of nowhere...trending topics.

You don't have to follow every source of info to quickly get breaking news from a given source.

CP may be the fastest outlet to find breaking news...but it also spews a bunch of shi*t too.

ROFL

The week is proof of that...

Other than mind-melding with Peter King's secret sources, I don't think there's a better news source than ChiefsPlanet. Chiefs-wise, I mean. And, of course, anal sex-wise.

Whenever I want an update on either of those two topics, this is the place I click.

Yeah I gotcha and I can see that being the case. I don't twitter... and I bet you couldn't tell.

I was waiting for someone to point that out. That's what I get for trying to get something done at work while I should be concentrating fully on CP. Luckily the stuff after the ... should clarify what you're voting for.
