The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ...In his first exercise video posted since the one in which he announced his new nickname, Brown has a message for the masses. “I’m gonna announce my new team in like a little bit, all right?” Brown says.

Diehards Line:Before he makes that proclamation, someone else in the background points out that Brown is already wearing his “black and gray,” which obviously would put the Raiders in play. Meanwhile, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that the Steelers are close to a deal to move Brown to an unnamed team. ... Stay tuned. We'll see if Brown's prediction holds up sooon enough, although last night's deal with Buffalo falling through is worth remembering at this point (nothing is done until it's done).
