You're being unnecessarily negative

and you're still speaking with degrees of certainty which are merely your opinions.

Phrases like "I'm almost certain that" when you have little or no more knowledge than the rest of us is incredibly irritating.

And if you're looking to be a journalist the first thing you need to do is stick to the known facts (unless you want to be a tabloid sports hack or write opinion columns).
