Moss to Arsenal; Linguists look to the future

ATLANTA-- Two familiar rivals and trade partners struck a deal via email conversation once again today. Aikman's Arsenal receives the rights to Randy Moss ($50, 2009 salary) in exchange for the right to Brandon Marshall ($23, 2009 salary) and Tim Hightower ($6, 2009 salary).

"We feel that our team is built to win now, and that Randy Moss will elevate this team to an even higher level. The trio of Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Johnson and Randy Moss will be feared by all Gurus.", said Aikman's Arsenal owner Michael Hegarty. A statement was just released by Cunning Linguists owner, Cory Pittman, "The CL's appreciate Randy Moss and everything he has done for the franchise. We regretfully had to make this move to clear a little cap room, but are very excited about the prospects of Brandon Marshall and Tim Hightower. They will bring much needed leadership to a team that suffered through some adversity last season, and we look forward to each of them being a long tenured piece of the CL family.”



The deal is still pending awaiting league approval from Gridiron Guru owners; they will have the normal 48 hours to debate.


GGW Take: Wow, what a bold move by the Arsenal. $148 invested in 5 players, but the trio of WR will almost be a 30 point guarantee a week. Any injuries will prove detriment to another Arsenal title run. Don't sleep on the Linguists! Coach Pittman got arguably two starters and gained $21 in cap space with this deal. A great move by both teams!

Interesting deal. One has to think Randy's age will be kicking in any time now and Marshall is just addicted to doing bad things (like Latarian), so both get a weird deal out of this trade. Big winner is Hightower. I talked to him the other day and he wanted out of Camp Mikey, felt like he wasn't getting enough love. I told him, "Don't worry, Mike isn't the only person on the earth that loves Tony Romo for no reason at all."

The 2007 Brady-Moss Connection was a one-hit wonder.

Mr. Vlahos please come by the Commish's office soon. We need to discuss some tampering issues. Possible $10 fine off of $200 budget.

You can't do that. I put the fantasy in fantasy football.
