I still hope he pulls a Brett Farve, except for the whole going to the Jets thing. Go for 300 Moose!

If true (his agent says we should all hold our horses), Mussina ends his career a Hall of Famer in my book. It might take a few more years than the minimum, but I don't think it'll be particularly long before Mussina is inducted.

The question is: Will there be a birdie or the "NY" on his cap?

AJ Burnett just made himself another $15-20 mil.

In all seriousness, although I always rooted against him, Mike Mussina was a worthy opponent; the odd brainy power pitcher for his Oriole tenure, he remained effective when his stuff failed him, and it figures that he would retire after his only 20-win season, as any number of more foolish pitchers would push their luck. Read 'Living On The Black' if you don't yet appreciate Mussina. (Or Tom Glavine, for that matter.) Doff of the cap.

And seriously, Burnett is swimming in a vault of gold coins now. I just hope the Sox don't sign him first.

Oh, and Paul, although the question is moot, your answer is obvious. Tweet tweet.

Not sure its quite so obvious. Moose basically played half his career for each team with a slight edge for the O's. My guess is that the HOF will ask his opinion and give him the choice.

Since I'm probably the biggest Moose fan here, may I have the honor of writing that blog post when it's confirmed (or when he announced)? =)
