"Hey Fitz...it's Anquan Boldin! Let's get a picture with him and maybe he will give us an autograph. He is one of my favs, the wife and kids will be shocked we met him in the flesh. We are just nobodys but he just might do it"

Boldin, "Alright, guys let's make this quick...I have better things to do than take pictures all day with fans"

Funny how Q was one of the Ravens' top 3 offensive players en route to the Lombardi and now they want to move on. "Once a Raven, always a Raven." Er, that is until "Nevermore."

Let's see if he throws a little salary tantrum with them like he did in AZ.

Update: Nevermind.

When I signed with the Ravens, I signed for four years. With me, it's all about principles. At no point, no matter how well I played, would I come back to the table and say, 'I need more money.'

Isn't this the exact opposite thing to what he said in AZ? As a Cardinal, wasn't he unhappy that his pay didn't reflect his production?

As I recollect he claimed the Cardinals had promised to re-negotiate his deal then reneged on the promise.

Nope the Cards came to him and promised a new deal. Then when they offered it it was a bunk slap in the face offer.

My bad. I thought both he and Dockett were unhappy with their current contracts and made a stink about it. I didn't recall that Q only got angry about being jerked around by the FO.

They wee both angry at the same time and about contracts but essentially for different reasons.

WTF ???

Anquan Boldin traded to 49ers for a sixth-round pick
Some ultimatum - Accept our terms or you're going to San Francisco. (But our terms will be steep - we're asking for a #6).

Think he'll deliver on his threat to retire?
