Quote:Charity-minded callers are getting intercepted by a phone-sex line because of a typo on Chad Ochocinco’s Cereal boxes.

The phone number is supposed to connect callers to Feed the Children, which benefits from sales of the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver’s cereal. But the box has the wrong toll-free prefix, meaning callers get a seductive-sounding woman who makes risque suggestions and then asks for a credit card number.

Cincinnati-based Kroger Co. said Thursday it was pulling all Ochocinco cereal boxes from its grocery shelves because of the error. Some local stores had them on special display after the launch about a month ago.

A message was left Thursday for Pittsburgh-based PBL Sports, which specializes in limited-edition products featuring star athletes and their favorite charities.

Ochocinco told WCPO-TV that the number was clearly a mistake and he’s sure that the maker will fix the problem.

As of Thursday morning, he hadn’t mentioned the error in any of his frequent messages on the Twitter social media site. On Wednesday, he had urged fans to go to his website to order the cereal and “Start your day with a lil suga!!!”

Quote:The 54-man roster trick has only one design flaw. In order to dump a vested veteran and bring him back the following week, the vested veteran must not sign with another team in the interim.

And that's precisely what defensive lineman Trevor Pryce has done a day after being cut by the Ravens. As first reported by Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs and confirmed by PFT, Pryce has defected to the Jets.

It's our understanding that the Ravens had an understanding with Pryce that he'd be coming back. Any such arrangement would be unenforceable at best, a violation of Article XXV, Section 1 of the CBA at worst; NFL spokesman Greg Aiello has confirmed that a team cannot promise to re-sign a player at a later date. Nevertheless, Mike Lombardi of NFL Network calls Pryce's decision to sign with the Jets "serious," and he suggests that the Ravens "won't be doing a deal anytime in the near future" with Lamont Smith and Peter Schaffer of All Pro Sports & Entertainment, the agents who represent Pryce.

Regardless of whether the Ravens are upset about Pryce going elsewhere (and it's our understanding that they aren't upset), it's the primary risk a team takes when hoping to dump a vested veteran and then pick him back up later.

And if the Ravens currently aren't upset, we'll see what happens if/when Pryce opts to take the balance of his $2 million base salary as termination pay -- while also getting paid by the Jets.

Quote:Who needs Vincent Jackson(notes) when they can have Randy Moss(notes)?

The Minnesota Vikings are working to complete a trade with the New England Patriots that would bring the veteran wide receiver back to the team he broke into the league with as an immediate star.

According to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports, the Vikings are working on a new contract for Moss, who is a free agent after this season, to close the deal.

Moss could pair up with Brett Favre(notes) in Minnesota after nearly joining forces with him in Green Bay, a terrific story that has been wonderfully chronicled previously by Andrew Brandt of the National Football Post.

The Vikings are coming out of their bye week hoping to build some momentum. Adding Moss to the mix would certainly give a punchless passing game that misses Sidney Rice(notes) a real boost. Stay tuned.
