Freddie Mitchell Tries Out For Ravens

Pro Football Talk with the story of the day:

A league source tells PFT that the Baltimore Ravens have worked out free agent wide receiver Freddie Mitchell.

We first heard about the Mitchell workout when a reader tipped us off that Mitchell had mentioned it on his MySpace page.

Ahh, welcome back to the NFL, Fred-Ex. Or, rather, welcome back to NFL tryouts, I guess. Good luck!

Hovercrafts From Philly To Baltimore! Umm, Yay?

We may never have flying cars or hoverboards, but we’re at least going to get something futuristic-sounding: The Mid-Atlantic Hovercraft Organization.

John Anderson of Mount Holly, a partner in the organization, is in talks with government officials. He plans to have stops on the Delaware River in Pennsylvania (Bristol, Bensalem, Philadelphia) and several more in New Jersey. The hovercraft would travel from Pennsylvania and Jersey to Baltimore.

A hovercraft journey to Baltimore (from Bristol) would take roughly two hours, carry 110 passengers and cost $45. Now if somebody could only figure out a reason to go to Baltimore.

Would you take an airboat to Baltimore? [The Intelligencer]
