gotta admidt this is a bit bizarre ..... I've never seena player announce his retirement on Monday and then come back 4 days later.

:woot

He told Seau that he could join a defense with Mike Vrabel, Tedy Bruschi and Richard Seymour and compete for a fourth Super Bowl title at the highest level of football.

that would have convinced me as well ;)

awesome signing

Good signing by the Pats. :nod

I was kind of bummed about that. I mean, was he just faking his retirement to get a little press attention in the first place?

i think he meant it on Monday, but Bill said something right on the phone;)

It's kinda funny to me, the Bolts are as good a team as the Pats yet they didn't want him and he is one of their own.
