I caught up with former Penn State safety Anthony Scirrotto late this afternoon. He was out on the sea crabbing, so I didn't bug him. Twenty-five crabs later, I get a call back and we had a nice chat about him getting drafted by the Kansas City Royals as well as his plans this summer trying to latch on with the Carolina Panthers.
Scirrotto signed a 3-year deal worth more than $1 million plus a signing bonus with Carolina and will compare whatever deal the Royals throw him to make sure there are no conflicts with the one from the Panthers.
Talking with Anthony, he made it clear the Royals respect his decision to pursue football and understand he won't be trading in his cleats for spikes unless the football gig doesn't pan out.
Scirrotto finished up with OTAs last Friday and has some nice vacation time until training camp in late July, hence the crabbing.
He said those crabs have reservations with the grill in the next day or so.
Lucky man.
