This seems like as good a time as any to have my first post --

This is an "absolute, complete, fabricated rumor" as I was just told by Stacey James (though I knew this already, as it has been confirmed by his teammates and agent). Tedy is fine. He's alive, he's not in the hospital.

This "story" began last night when a member of the Boston media got a phone call with this "tip" that Tedy was gravely ill/near death. The story was not aired last night, but said media member e-mailed others with the alleged news, and last night Tedy was at home when he started getting dozens of calls from people asking him if he was sick.

***Doonan24*** · 07-24-2007, 07:35 PM

Ive been sitting at work and hearing everyone coming in and talking about it. Ridiculous.

***Aqua4Ever04*** · 07-24-2007, 07:36 PM

Someone changed wikipedia that he was dead. Very sick indeed, don't shoot the messanger though.

smyoung, thanks for that info. I received this frantic phone call and couldn't believe what I was hearing. I'm in RI and there is no such rumor here, but the call I received was from Boston and now it makes sense seeing that the rumor is up there and that's where my call originated.
