Maybe Herb was the one who was hoodwinked by his shorty buddies and he is in damage control of his own.
I love how Herb avoid Occam's Razor when trying to explain what is going on. He develops a conspiracy theory about a reverse-sting instead of the more obvious conclusion that MW is just full of it.
'However, since Greenberg is well connected to shorts it suggests that they are in damage limitation mode, that is a good thing.'
Occam's razor (or Ockham's razor[1]), often expressed in Latin as the lex parsimoniae, translating to law of parsimony, law of economy or law of succinctness, is a principle that generally recommends selecting the competing hypothesis that makes the fewest new assumptions, when the hypotheses are equal in other respects.[2] For instance, they must both sufficiently explain available data in the first place.
