Profootballtalk.com (PFT) is a news and rumor website that focuses on the National Football League. Though much of the information on PFT is aggregated from mainstream media sources, site editor Mike Florio often writes stories based on tips he attributes to a network of sources. The main focus of the site is the Daily Rumor Mill consisting of postings of the aforementioned news items as well as editorializing by Florio. Throughout the season, weekly rankings of players at various positions for fantasy football are posted. Furthermore, the site maintains a year-round Turd Watch competition, in which teams are ranked based on the arrests of their personnel. The site was created on November 1, 2001, by Florio, who is also the site's primary editor and contributor. Florio is responsible for the multiple daily updates to the primary page of the site, the Daily Rumor Mill. In addition, content such as satirical photo-illustrations and periodic live blogs by Florio of NFL games or the draft. On June 14, 2009, it was announced that Profootballtalk.com would become an affiliate of NBC Sports, which would hold exclusive rights to PFT content although Florio would retain ownership.
