the Vikings. I thought when I heard that his wife was shopping for a house in Baltimore, well, that getting out HAS to be Matt "playing" the Vikes. Now I hear he really IS going to the Ravens...

Anyone hear anything?

Ravens | Birk may sign
Wed, 04 Mar 2009 05:57:49 -0800

Jamison Hensley, of The Baltimore Sun, reports free-agent C Matt Birk (Vikings) said he is "absolutely" considering signing with the Baltimore Ravens. Birk met with the Ravens Tuesday, March 3, and is expected to meet again with the team Wednesday, March 4.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be ๐Ÿ™‚ (PS, Zero should charge for this)

ESPN reports it's done deal, Matty B. is a Raven.

Not surprised, though. It was fairly common knowledge that Chilly and Birk didn't get along all that well.. especially this past offseason when Birk didn't attend any optional training sessions (He's always trained with Mike Morris during Viking OTAs, so nothing new there).

Personally, I'm not surprised, but I am.

I guess it's time to see how that center from Notre Dame does (John Sullivan).

Good for the Pack, but I'm sure that one has to hurt. He has always struck me as a supremely classy fellow, and I know he was very active in the community up there, especially with disadvantaged kids. I don't know squat about Sullivan, but I can't imagine him being an improvement over Birk either on the field or off it.

I can understand the move, $$$/age - wise, but the casual fanbase isn't going to like that one at all. Baltimore must think he has a ton of gas left in the tank to give him the contract I just saw.

Sometimes the business aspect of this game pisses me off, even when my rival team's fans get shafted.

I hope Zigi didn't lose him because he thought it was some kind of bluff on Matt Birk's part... even us Packer fans know that Birk don't roll that way, in spite of what I said in my initial post.

It's kind of interesting because I remember seeing an article sometime during last season that said Birk had put his house up for sale on a website. He probably saw this coming.

EDIT: Apparently it's this  house. And here's  the original forum post. Kind of funny, it's dated March 12th '08.
