However, it's not as surprising that Andy didn't get traded, as some might want to believe.  Cam Newton was, and still is available on the free and open market, yet no team has made a move to pick him up, either.

It is important to keep ones opinion/perspective fluid, as facts and circumstances are always ever changing.  Just because fredtoast updated his opinion of a situation, does not mean that he did it for the sole purpose of claiming he was right and someone else was wrong.  At some point along the way, he realized that what he was thinking didn't match the current status of the issue of hand, and he modified his stance.  Nothing wrong with that.

That's if he changed it before it was obvious that Dalton wouldn't get traded. He probably changed it in the last couple weeks when it became obvious to everyone and his dog that Dalton wasn't getting traded, and then bragged about it as if that was his original position from the start.  

If you do change your opinion, after the fact, then you should state that you changed it recently and not brag about it.
