West coast won out

March 1st, 2009 | NFL

I’m now hearing that TJ to that west coast team is a done deal.  Anything can happen before he puts that pen to the contract but as of right now it’s a done deal.  So look for this story to officially break soon.

Well that sucks. Hopefully Jerome and Andre are ready for action. That would be huge for this team. Anyways, good luck TJ. He would probably have a better chance winning here though..

I thought T J wanted to win…. maybe one day players will just be honest and tell us the real reason in real time… like you JT, why can’t they all be like you. I understand you have to make money, but if the difference between the potential teams is close, money wise, why don’t you go to the best team, if you are all about winning. I am so sick and tired of that cliche. TJ could have owned this city. He will regret this decision. Sometimes you get better when you get rid of guys like that… and he was one of my favorite players.

T.J. watch continues
March 1st, 2009 – 10:48 AM by Chip Scoggins

It appears that T.J. Houshmandzadeh has arrived at Winter Park. A limousine was seen pulling into the parking lot just a few minutes ago.

The Vikings will likely give him a tour of the facilities while officials discuss contract figures with his agent. We’ll keep you posted as we learn more.

For what it’s worth, an update just showed up on Wikipedia as well.

“On March 1st 2009 it was reported that T.J. signed a 3 year 29 million dollar contract with the Minnesota Vikings”

I wish TJ luck where ever he goes. I like Minnesota, but would you rather play for Carson, Hasselbeck or Sage Rosenfels? I think TJ is more worried about what his stats show than the $$ he makes and I find that leaves Minnesota losing out.

HAHA… dang!

Heck, I’d settle for $100k a year… just for one year actually and then back to my current rate.
