Update: HOLLIDAY A CARD 7yr/120 million, p178

[TGantz]

I have already placed an order on a Matt Holliday cardinal jersey. This is freaking awesome. Yes Yes Yes.

PaintItRed got a MLB card for x-mas, he just asked me if he could borrow a few bucks to place the order. I said no of course.

LOL

We have a new #15 in town... again. The real question is if I should get the Cardinals batting practice style jersey like my Edmonds one or if I should get a classic white or gray one? Or do I go cheap and get a T-shirt so I can wear it once or twice a week? I plan on naming my kid Matt and naming my next dog Holliday.

I still say he goes to the Yanks or Red Sox.

I'm a very happy man right now.

Nice headline pic on foxsports.com - "Working Holliday". Don't know how long it will be up, but it won't let me post the image.

I don't want to research this thread, but is this contract better than the one offered by Colorado in 2008?

Good one.

I have an inside source that says the physical may not be a sure thing. Something about not having a stomach, and having difficulty breathing in October. Stay tuned.

Rockies offer was 4 yrs/$80M without a no-trade clause, IIRC.
