Beat me to it.

2 mill off the books is good. I hope Wright either stops getting concussed or retires. _________________

Mike Wright needs to retire for his own health. _________________

He changed his profile to | Quote: | | Former OL for the New England Patriots, and the Penn State Nittany Lions... Now gainfully unemployed/full-time tweeter/part-time nude model. |
Only tweet today:

Sad about Mike Wright. He was my 2nd fav pats player behind Vrabel. I hope he retires.
As for Rich, good riddance. |

| Can't say I'm too surprised by either move. Would have liked to have seen Wright resume his career, but it's probably best if he retires. Ohrnberger was just garbage; even torn-groin Ellis Hobbs, who was essentially traded straight up for him, would have been better. |

Ohrnberger never made sense to me. One of my least favorite Belichick picks. No clue what they ever saw in him. |

Come on, when you have a chance to draft a woefully undersized offensive lineman from Penn St. that tells corny jokes and is roughly as strong as the evidence supporting Jerry Sandusky's innocence, you have to pounce... |

Well, at least now Ohrnberger will have time to devote to his comedy career. _________________

I loved Ellis Hobbs. Damn shame an injury ended his career prematurely  _________________
