Elvis is reportedly turning down offers in the 3.5 to 4.0 million dollar range to retire so his family will not have to move again. In an interview on ESPN, Grbac stated that the stress of moving his kids was higher than the need for more money. That is a refreshing statement to me. I am glad to see a millionaire athlete put his family before a few bucks. I am a new Elvis fan.

He'll probably be in divorce court within a year. What wife wants her husband around all the time - especially a husband so stupid as to turn down FOUR MILLION DOLLARS!

So, I presume, then, that Elvis's family lives in baltimore and they love it so much that they refuse to move. Ever. Baltimore. Because if they don't live in Baltimore, then it makes no sense because that would show that he, like so many other athletes, can work one place and live in another.
Baltimore. Call me cynical, but I think this is a negotiating tactic and nothing more. Baltimore?
