Love what Tom Nelson has been doing also.......

Me, too. He may be a keeper on versatility alone.

Glad to see Tyrod, Deonte, and B. Pierce all doing well.

Couple of Lions updates:

Ihedigbo was a rumored hold-out for more $, as he definitely outplayed his meager contract last year, but Lions wouldn't budge. He's in camp and grinding, becomes a FA next year.

And Haloti's taking TC off on the Non-Football Injury list.

After nothing but bad news from these joint practices, once again the Ravens lead the way and show the NFL how it's done.

Thank you, Chip Kelly and the Eagles for hosting, and keeping it clean!

Once again, time to institute the sarcasm button 

Looks like our OL is going to be very light tomorrow.  Osemele, Wagner, Reid, Clausell, and Baldwin might all miss the game.

Does this mean Urschel's back?

And he knows that, too.

didn't we just have a long discussion about that in last week's game thread?

Thanks 1/28 for once again saving the day. Great pic!

Tom Nelson!!!

Hmm. Smith is in street clothes? I wonder why, too. Maybe rest? I don't know. Haven't heard of any injuries.

they're saying he's till not 100%, just giving him a rest.

Sounds like bad advice to me!...  WOW...  so bad advice is an excuse?

Many court cases lost based on bad advice.

Obviously Yee's never read the CBA, or the contract he had Br*dy sign, sounds like a 1st class agent to me.

Oh this is hilarious. Former Jets DE IK Enemkpali has been claimed by the Bills.

Seriously? Wow, go Rex!

Way more behind this story than we know.

Boomer Esiason on NFLN putting the blame squarely on Geno, saying he finally antagonized the wrong guy, again calling his maturity into question (Bowles said it was something 6th graders could have ironed out), and saying he's not surprised at all, the only thing surprising is that Geno's still in a Jets jersey.

Wow. Really harsh words for a kid when he's down. Keep piling on, Boomer, way to go. <sarcasm> SMDH.

That is awesome! I have had terrible luck so far this year. My favorite fishing pier was condemned this year for being unsafe, but they are in the process of rebuilding it and claim it should be ready this fall. I have not checked on the progress.

yeah, it sucks to lose your favorite fishing spot. Hope they get it back up soon.

My luck's been pretty bad, too, since I moved two years ago. On the east slope of the mountains, it's mostly German browns and brook trout - they're stupid fish and pretty easy to catch. Over here on the west slope, it's mostly rainbows and cutthroats, they're just smarter fish. I still don't know how to fly-fish, yet, either. I'm just a beginner, but I plan on spending a lot more time out on the river this fall.

Just got my new Shimano reel today I ordered on eBay from Japan on August 6th. It is sweet! The shipper even put a cool origami in the shipping box.

Sweet!

I bought myself a little light-weight, fast action Shimano trout pole last year, with a Plueger on it - it's almost a kid's set-up, really, but I absolutely love it. Finally caught my first keeper on it yesterday, a 14" cutthroat. Now I'm obsessed, all I want to do is go fishing!

Suisham thinks he's done for the year. Still waiting on the MRI to confirm.

Yep. Admins will open the game thread later in the week.

That team is so deep at CB, can they just give us Corey Graham back?

Pretty please?

That's hilarious.

And, seriously, when has anybody ever seen Joe cry?

The dude has ice water in his veins.

Love that Aiken's claimed his spot. He's sure earned it the hard way.

And love love LOVE that, including Gilmore, our offensive line is intact from last year. Those guys can only get better.

The 49ers were already screwed as soon as they fired Jim Harbaugh...

agree 1000%

Football, only entertainment????  Are you kidding????  Cripe, it's everything.  I mean it's right up there with going to work everyday, and paying the mortgage.   LOLOLOL

Especially if you have to have Sunday Ticket to see our Ravens.

That payment"s  almost as much as a mortgage, LOL 

I'm a little surprised to see Taliaferro ahead of Buck Allen, but that's the Harbaugh way I guess.

Rumor has it Tali showed up to TC lean, mean and hungry. He's been working really hard, don't count him out.

Have you guys heard anything about Deandre Carter?I haven't heard his name in a while so I guess that means he's not standing out anymore.

Lots of pics of him on the home page - photos from TC.

At least the photographers are still focusing on him.

I was also looking forward to some fireworks with Joe and Perriman, but honestly, if we're going into the pre-season with Sr, Aiken, Butler and Camp as our top four, I'm pretty OK with that.

The secondary had 6 ints last year, that is pathetic. I see K Lewis getting at least 5. Webb 3, J. Smith 2, Hill 2. I believe the Ravens will be in the top 5 in takeaways this year. K Lewis's leadership will make it happen.

I was also very disappointed with the lack of turnovers in the secondary last year.

Like salamander said, those momentum shifts are HUGE when a team has a chance to come back and score, and you can shut them down.

I'm really glad the team has made that a priority this year.

For once, I actually agree with Preston today. Let's focus on cheating, not tattling.

exactly.

this is not the third grade, people.
