  1. I just noticed the ESPN article about the Ravens actually coming back to Tucker with a *lower* offer than they had previously made to him. What an insult. They appear to be clowning around with him if that's the case, and I don't blame him one bit for vowing not to resign with the Ravens after this "forced" season under the franchise tag.  Seriously, who is crunching the numbers over there and deciding that with 13 Million in cap space, Tucker still isn't worth what his body of work has shown us?

    Pay the man !!!  Geez!

    And to think I was ready to buy a couple of Tucker Ravens jerseys as soon as he signed. Good thing I held out, because he'll probably be kicking for the Steelers next season at this rate. Let's hope the front office can get it together before tomorrow's deadline.....but somehow I doubt they'll be trying very hard.

  2. "Zuttah will also challenge incumbent center Gino Gradkowski for a starting role."

     

    LOL - who are wi trying to kid here? Ozzie will never trade away draft picks for mere "challenge". The sheer fact of the trade means he's meant to start.

     

    The reason the article says that he will challenge Gino for the starting role.....and the reason -every- new Raven, whether it is a draft pick, trade or FA pickup....will have an article saying the same thing.......is because ***nobody*** on this team is just handed a starting job. You *earn* it here.

     

    Yes, it's Zuttah's job to lose, but if he walked in here and played like a total bum in the preseason, guess what? He would *not* be the starter.   *That*  is why you will see this every single time.

  3. Austin, Texas in the house. We have about 50 fans watch the game at The Tavern here in Austin every week. Personally, I try to go to about 4 games every year - 2 in Baltimore, 2 on the road. Only did 3 this year (Houston, Seattle and the Browns on Christmas Eve). I also have my plane and hotel reserved for Indy... now if we can just close that deal.

    After a year or so of sending new Austinites to the Tavern for Ravens games, I'll finally be able to go there myself. It's good to be back in town. :)
