    Re: Wallace signs

    Might want to hold off on this...Jim Wexell, the one who originally broke this news, has retracted it saying he cannot confirm it now.

    I'm going to temporarily add that to the title until it's confirmed, Truck.

    I got excited for a minute when I saw the report on the Depot. IF this is true...what do you guys think of the numbers?

    That links to an article about Tomlin extending, though. Other reporters are starting to say it's not true.

    Hey, no worries! I can't imagine how many rabid fans got fooled with that. I woke up this morning thinking we'd get him signed up today or tomorrow, so I was foaming at the mouth. :lolol:

    I saw the post from Steelers Depot and I did the quickest copy/paste I've ever done..lol It's very un-like Depot to report un-confirmed info. :(

    Apparently they were as excited as you were. And normally Wexell is a solid source...so yeah.

    Re: Wallace signs <Not Yet Confirmed>

    So sorry. I was listening to the radio here and they said that he was resigned. The Post Gazette here in the Burgh also had a link up to an article but they have pulled it down. I'm sorry for the confusion. The above link was to the Wallace story but they have somehow re routed it to the Tomlin extension.

    LOL, man I was so excited there for a few seconds. WPXI, Channel 11 news reported it as well as a radio station here and then I seen the link to the Post Gazette and Jim Wexell's twitter feed. I'm still holding out hope! :praying:

    Re: Wallace signs <Not Yet Confirmed>

    That was some lighting fast c/p'ing! :bowdown: But yeah, he's as eager as anyone to be the first to deliver the breaking news. :)

    So, from a moderating standpoint, what do you guys think should be done with this thread? Title changed and locked up? Leave it be? Delete it? (I'm not a fan of deleting)
    I appreciate opinions while I run outside for a few minutes.

    Maybe give it a little bit longer and see if it does happen...if it doesnt then I'd flat out delete this one...even though you usually dont like it...I personally would.

    5 years, 42 mill is 8 per year. Doesn't that seem a bit high?
