    Now hear this! Now Hear this!

    Now I am hearing something is stirring in Baltimore for Tex. Something really big..like 9 for 180 or possibly 10 for 200 mil. I have said all along that I do NOT think Tex will be coming to Baltimore. I am hoping that I am very wrong. Despite the fact that I still think he is worth about 14-16 mill a year,and think this is insane money..I would go on record right now that if I was proven wrong, I would happily post the biggest "you heard it here LAST" post youve ever seen. Apparently Tex is a guest of Peter's at the Ravens game tommorrow...and they are going to take a physical on Monday. Please...let me be wrong!!!
    This could be a huge signing for the Orioles in alot of ways...

    Firestone is a good enough source himself...

    This is definitely very good news...we gotta overpay to show other guys out there we're willing to spend...and willing to win.

    Wait, so have you changed your opinion on if Tex will sign here or not? Or do you still think he will not? Thanks for the update!

    A physical on Monday would indicate a done deal in my book, or at least an agreement to terms.

    This should leak out tomorrow one would think...

    Peter should by Mark lots of steak. That would convince me to sign.

    ok, I am leaving but before I do why does Pete and Mark taking a physical together on Monday have to do with him signing..if that's the case then I hope you are wrong.

    Really? FABULOUS NEWS Roy!!! For us O's crazies, for Pete A, AM and all of Baltimore! I agree with the $$ but I think he is worth more $$ to Baltimore than just his performance on the field...

    Finally, no problem with the "hear it here last" post - AM is very, very good!

    Not that I doubt you, Roy, but lets think this out. If hes coming to the game maybe thats Pete trying to win him over. If theres a physical being discussed, the national media would have picked up on it by now.
