Aliquippa made a blockbuster trade in acquiring highly talented WR Randy Moss for the 2010 FAA season. This was a key acquisition for the Rabid Ghosts who were stacked at RB and although they were primarily shopping Steven Jackson they traded Chris Johnson and a 3rd round 2011 pick to the FAA expansion Las Vegas Torpedos in exchange for Randy Moss and a 1st round pick 2011 pick. The Las Vegas franchise is not expected to make the post-season for a couple years while he gets adjusted to the FAA, whereas Aliquippa put what appears to be the proper pieces in place to make a serious run at the 2010 Fabio Cup. Randy Moss is going to be targeted early and often by Brett Favre this season starting in 2 days on MNF. Get your popcorn ready! Moss is likely to build an instant chemistry and could easily finish the season as the top WR in the league. Why did Aliquippa trade away CJ2k you ask? Because he could. Some may look at this as the stupidest trade in FAA history although it could very well be perceived as a brilliant move if the Rabid Ghosts end up hoisting the Fabio Cup in late December. The Quip franchise has been 1-2 games shy of making the playoffs the past three seasons finishing with a 6-7 record each year. This trade should put them over that hump. It has been well noted that a few FAA owners voiced their unpleasantries with this trade... they are probably just jealous as they did not have the gonads to make a strong attempt to acquire CJ2k themselves. Don't be ridiculous people, Randy Moss is a stud. This all can be revisited as the 2010 year concludes but for now fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the ride! If Aliquippa falls short of the 2010 Fabio Cup Championship Zuc would have failed yet should have no problem putting themselves in contention yet again in 2011.
