Mountain meet molehill.

I would like to see the letter rather than simply have Willis's characterization of the letter.

"Dear Mr. McGahee,
The Baltimore Ravens would like to retain your services, but your salary is too high. For less than half, we could sign a veteran RB like Ricky Williams. If you are willing to make 10% over the veteran minimum, we can hash out a deal. If not, then best of luck to you in another NFL city... respectfully, Baltimore Ravens management"

Thanks Bc, I knew you'd come through.

I believe you have summarized all of the actual facts.

Not a memory I wanted to revisit, but...

so the heels guy was a Pigsburgh fan I guess?
