the case that I had, and if anybody knows me, they know Im going to stand strong by what I believe in."
Maybe so, but with the Ravens scheduled to play in Philadelphia this coming fall Id advise Owens to be on the lookout for one Ray Lewis, who might have a thing or two to say about this entire affair.','3/17/2004 12:28:08 PM','12:28:08 PM','Wednesday'4193,2004,1040 6602,22,75,'Gannons Shoulder Improving, But Future Role Unclear','In an article published Tuesday, Associated Press sports writer Janie McCauley advised readers that Rich Gannon is progressing nicely in his recovery from shoulder surgery and the Oakland Raiders are optimistic their veteran quarterback will be ready for a mandatory mini-camp late next month.
Gannon will report to team headquarters in the next few weeks so the Raiders can monitor his throwing routine.
"Were going to be smart and take it slow in terms of what we ask him to do, but Rich threw here about a month ago," new head coach Norv Turner said Tuesday. "I watched him throw. He was throwing it about 20 yards and throwing it fairly firm."
Gannon told Turner last week he threw about 45 balls a distance of nearly 40 yards.
"He said its the best hes felt since the surgery and he was very positive about where his arm is," Turner said.
The 38-year-old Gannon, knocked out of a loss to Kansas City last Oct. 20, had surgery in November to repair a torn labrum in his throwing shoulder.
Gannons role for 2004 is unclear -- and it certainly will depend on his health.
According to McCauley, the Raiders may choose to draft Mississippi quarterback Eli Manning with the second overall selection in next months draft and still keep Gannon, who has been a valuable veteran presence for a franchise that cherishes its old guys.

It should be noted that factors other than salary will come into play, too.
