Cya Later Ravens Defense! CYA!!!

Well, Scott decided to go with Rex & the Jets. We also have Leonard & Ivy on the fence ready to hop over the fence to NY. Now they're saying Ray Lewis is adamant about leaving Baltimore too! Give him his damn money!! He's definitely earned it over the years! You're telling me you're gonna let the player go who's jersey is worn my 99% of the cities fans? That's sooooo dumb! I guess this is a business & you don't care about the fans who put their faith & money into this player since the franchise was brought to Baltimore. Lewis and Biscotti need to compromise to keep the fans happy. In terms of the other players, Scott can leave hes in the same position as Ray old, on his way out (sort of) but Lewis is still playing a lot better than Scott (at least last season). Ivy can leave we need a cornerback & I seen Ivy do nothing. McCalister leaving was a bigger deal. Lastly if they're going to pour money on anyone give it to Leonhard. I think he's worth more than any of these players. Lewis should get money but I would try to give a little more to Leonhard to keep him here. He's probably going to go to Ryan though because the only reason he came to Baltimore & played as much as he did.

Got the Franchise BOY!

Yup, we like him, Suggs: THE TURTLE (I call him the turtle cause he looks like a snapping turtle)!!!! He snatches the ball from the QBs & gets those sacks! Ravens officially put the franchise title on Suggs & he was well worth it. It was a question whether he would return since he would be a free agent in a week, but in a recent interview he said he WOULD take the hometown discount Biscotti mentioned earlier to Ray Lewis. I think we need Suggs more than Lewis or Scott. After this season you can see Suggs progressing, where as Lewis & Scott are starting to show their ages. We would love to keep all of them but if they think they're worth more to another team that will pay then let them go. We have a new QB, new head coach, & its a new team ready for a new year.

McAlister gets cut

Chis McAlister hardly played at all this year with an injured knee that put him on the IR list early in the season. But even with the injured knee there were rumors that he had recovered & there were other reasons (maybe Harbaugh related) that he wasn't on the field. McAlister has been a great asset to the team & the first of the defense roster casualties. The only person from the last season that had played cornerback as well as McAlister was either Samari Rolle or Jim Leonhard (although he was technically a safety). Corey Ivy & Fabian Washington were constantly being beat by WRs last season & their coverage was sub par at best. These guys need to step up their game if were going to keep our Defense reputation or else we need to look for someone in the draft.

No more Island Pro Bowl

Several Ravens have enjoyed going to Hawaii after the season has ended to participate in the Pro Bowl. Players such as Ed Reed, Terrell Suggs, Ray Lewis & (Finally an offensive player) Le'Ron McLain all went to the Pro Bowl this year only to receive the news that the Bowl will no longer be held in Hawaii. According to Fox Sports the League has decided to move the game back to the Dolphins Stadium in 2010. Not only that, but they're also moving the date to weekend between the conference championships the Super Bowl. The date change doesn't really make any sense to me. The players already don't play their hardest because its the end of the season & no one wants to get injured. How are they going to have the players that are going to the Superbowl play the weekend before? This is obviously the work of some fat cat bosses to try to get more rating/ affiliates bullshit. No one will watch (still) & I bet the players that are going to the Superbowl either don't show up or if they do don't play, because why take that risk?!?!? Dumb descision.

Fumblerooskie Fun at the Probowl


Even after the football season is over Harbaugh is still having some offense fun at the Pro Bowl yesterday. The AFC took the lead Le'Ron McClain running the ball in with this Fumblerooskie play. It was pretty hilarious to see, but it definitely worked. I wanna see more plays like this in the NFL & more importantly in the Ravens playbook. I say whatever works & wildcat plays are more fun than trying to run the ball up the middle & getting nothing every time.

Superbowl Sobe Spot

So "Sobe" had a superbowl ad with those stupid dancing lizards again & they had a bunch of guys including Ray Lewis doing the ballet "Swan Lake". I understand Ray's career is winding down so he needs to get some endorsements quick, but Sobe?!? Lizzards?!?! Also, it was broadcasted in 3D,which I thought was a fad then went out of style in the 80's (All you cretive directors trying to jump on the 80's style wagon STOP IT!). The commercial looks dumb without the glasses & I'm pretty sure 99% of viewers that didn't have the glasses/ even knew they were supposed to get them (or where). Now my problems with Sobe. First off has anyone tasted that drink it tastes like the worst kool aid flavor without enough powder & no sugar. It's pretty much one of the worst "sports" drinks I've ever had. Now the poblems with Ray... YOU ARE DOING ballet! & WTF with that hat who are you Neyo or Michael Jackson? NO! Take that off!! That's fine, I'm done my complaints (for now). I guess when you're one of the most feared linebacker in the NFL you don't have to worry about looking like a wuss, you can do whatever you want. Either way Ray Ray will get paid & that's all the really matters, well that & the fact he needs to stay with the Ravens til retirement. Stay in Baltimore, NOWWW!!!!

Steelers Win Superbowl.....again

Well, Steelers won the superbowl, again. They are now the only team to win , the most in franchise history. It's getting really annoying/ boring! There were a lot of rediculous plays that went down. 1. Right before the the half Steelers Line backer James Harrison intercepted Warner pass to run back a 100yd touchdown. All they needed to do is get him out of bounds at any point & they could have avoided being down +7. There was no time on the clock left & the Steelers wouldn't be able to get their special teams on the field for a Fiel Goal. But no, had to let him run all the way to the other end zone. The only other amazing thing was that the Cardinals didn't throw to Larry Fitzgerald almost the whole first half. He was one of the best recievers this season. All Warner had to do is put the ball clost to him & its basically +10yds at least. But nooo could't get the offense going til the second half. Overall it was a heartbreaking experience to see Arizona continue not winning superbowls & Steelers getting another Superbowl. I think I speak for most everyone in the country when I say Pittsburgh is the worst city & now the Steelers continue to be the single worst of all time.

Rex Ryan leaves us

Our defensive coordinator Rex Ryan had been in talks with the Jets to become their new head coach & only an hour after our loss he accepted the position. He's been such a great asset to our team keeping Baltimore one of the best defenses in the league for the time he's been with us. It's sad he has to leave & I will miss his defensive coordinating. Hopefully the Greg Mattison the newly named coordinator will be able to live up to Ryan's legacy. Mattison has a college defensive coordinator & has had 18 students become NFL players. We'll see if he the next Harbaugh when it comes to coaching though.
