WARNING: WONDERFUL RUMOR

Check out this thread in the PI's forums. I usually dismiss unsubstantiated stuff like this, but is has a ring to it. If it turns out to be a hoax, I'll delete this and go find 'SeattleSports' and duct tape him to a flagpole.

Here's some copied material, but go check out the latest for yourself:

Matt Hasselbeck has been signed, Shaun Alexander will receive the tag, and a new president has been hired from Tampa. You heard it here first. Write it down.

How close is "close to the Hawks"? Dagnabit, I'm close to the Hawks!!!

If it's the freakin' janitor, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Great question...I'm not sure of the terms or details...they'll come out later. But what I knew I wrote.

Close to the Hawks = close to the FO. Very close. As close as you can get. I am sorry I can't reveal the source, but I hope you understand.

C'mon, you've got to give us something or I'm going to spend all night trying to untie my underwear. Should we hear something tonight, or in the morning?

My guess is that you'll hear something tomorrow, not tonight.

Sports,

This is taking a huge leap of faith trusting you, but can you please tell the FO to trade SA to Miami, and I want you to make it very clear to them that Ronnie Brown would be a perfect replacement for SA.

As a matter of fact, the FO isn't against trading Shaun, but now that he's franchised the options are increased.

Dang, this is like being a sugared up six year old trying to get to sleep on Christmas Eve.

Thanks, SS! (I guess) ;-)

Do you mean the president is going to be hired from Atlanta, who works under Rich McKay who worked the same position with McKay at Tampa? Thats what I am hearing.

Immuh,

I wouldn't use that early of a pick on Brown, I still think we will nab him at 23! You would be right to use that pick on DJ

Sports,

One last question, what do think the status of Lucas will be with this team?


SeattleSports ... # 672167

I welcome the questions...if I was hearing this info, I would be questioning it, as well. However, this is a trust building issue. :-) You'll find out shortly. As for Lucas, I'm not sure, as the only info I obtained was about Hasselbeck, Alexander, and the new president. I'll try to get info on Lucas. My hypothesis is that he'll be one of the first guys they'll try to sign after the big three.
