*headdesk* Yeah that's what I meant. It's been a long day.

ESPN is reporting that Anquan Boldin's been traded to the 49ers.

 

*blinks*

wait, what?

 

DeAngelo Hall's been released.

The Raven's have traded Boldin to their Super Bowl opponent.

 

and percy harvin to the seahawks. the nfc west just gets more interesting.

 

no kidding. i'm absolutely shocked that the ravens traded boldin. what'd they get for him? and why the hell did they trade him to the 49ers of all teams?

 

they traded him for a sixth round pick.

 

This.

As to Trimaj and his second question. I guess Harbaugh would rather deal with his brother than anybody else?

 

...........

i get the feeling they just seriously insulted boldin by doing that. and they're likely to regret that. very likely, seeing as he's hardly washed up at this point.

and if it was this year's number six, i think that just makes it worse. do they seriously think they can replace boldin with a sixth round pick? or are they just that high on torrey smith?

yea. i'm glad i'm done with fantasy football.

 

He initially said he'd rather retire than be released or traded. Wonder if this changes his mind.

And ESPN is reporting that the Cards will release Beanie Wells.

 

i'd imagine it bloody well will. given how close the 49ers just were to a SB win (admittedly they have some growing still to do, but sheesh). besides, i get the feeling jim can motivate him a bit.

 

I'm pretty sure Jack forced him to make the trade so Jim would stop throwing his food across the kitchen every meal.


In other news, the Vikings are planning to cut the rest of their receivers, trade Christian Ponder to the Raiders, and snap the ball directly to Adrian Peterson on every play.

 

If they pick up Greg Jennings, I will burn Minnesota down.

 

were i jennings, i'd want to go somewhere with an actual QB.

 

David Garrard signs two year deal with Jets.

 

This calls for the Picard GIF with banned words.

 

yea, pretty much marcus.

 

Colin Kaepernick's on SportsCenter, looking, extremely casual to say the least.

 

Free agency is off and running.

The Giants released Asomaugh

Tony G tweeted he's returning the the Falcons for one more year.

Paul Kruger is going to the Browns

The Dolphins nab Mike Wallace for five years.

ESPN is reporting they're also signing Ellerbee.

 

The Bills have released Ryan Fitzpatrick just a little under two years after giving him a big contract.

 

Goodbye Wallace. Meh.

Some sports guy on twitter is saying Burress resigned with the Steelers.

 

LOL

 

Vilma and Smith have apparently restructured their contracts to remain with the Saints.
