  1. Looks like I will tuning in to NFL Network for sure just to see SSS. I love his commentary.
  2. I knew I was impressed with Orr by his play on the field. However, I didn't know much about him as a person/teammate. It is clear that Orr is just as highly regarded off the field. I am even more impressed with this Raven today, realizing that this player with talent is also a man with such grace and character. Ravens fans will certainly miss him. Good luck Zachary
  3. Orr really stood out and made some amazing plays. Before this news, I was looking forward to watching him next year as a key player on the defense. Orr made the right decision to leave the game while his body is intact but I will surely miss the impressive plays he made. Orr is off to life's next great adventure and I wish him all the best in life. Glad Orr had such a terrific final year as a starter.
  4. Hope we at least can still at least have the pleasure of listening to SSS as a commentator sometimes. His wit and blunt comments are entertaining and spot on. Wishing you well in retirement SSS. Gonna miss you on the field for the Ravens big time.
  5. Like so many others, SSS is one of my favorite Ravens of all time. His passion for the game was evident in every moment on the field. Will miss him so much.
  6. Tom has a hissy fit on the sidelines. Love it
  7. So relieved to see Torrey move around after that brutal landing. Always a special place in my heart for Torrey and wish him well.
  8. Just want to add my congrats to Joe and Dana and glad they finally got their wish for a girl to add to the family.
  9. Thanks Grapple.
  10. So true. I could tolerate a year where the Bengals don't make the post-season as well. But the best part would be that losing to the Ravens was the reason for the Bengals to be bumped from the playoffs.
  11. Well put Grapple. Perriman had been through a rough enough time before this new injury happened. My heart goes out to him big time..
  12. In my mind, the underdog role is better anyway. Playing like we have something to prove and to be a bit ticked off will hopefully only help the Ravens be more focused, hungry and physical.
  13. Considering how poor our record was last year, a middle of the pack ranking at 17 shows some confidence in the Ravens. But ranking doesn't really matter. Hope we just get better as the team gels and the season goes on.....and oh.....major detail.....our players stay healthy.
  14. I am so glad the Ravens brought in Ray Rice to talk to the rookies. Despite how terrible the elevator incident was, Ray has proven to me many times over that he has redeemed himself and worthy of my respect. The NFL should embrace the opportunity to encourage other teams to have their rookies benefit from Ray's experience. Wishing Ray Rice the best in life, always.
  15. Agree. But that won't keep Pats fans from using any opportunity to whine and moan and try to make anything in to an off the wall, not even close, parallel. Pats fans have already started this nonsense.
  16. Sheesh. If Harbaugh claims to not have known of the no helmet prohibition in rookie camp, he should have known. Regardless, there is unwanted fallout and there are consequences for an infraction of any of the rules, not to mention the damage to the reputation of the organization. Hope the consequences aren't too hefty. I also hate hearing the negativity in the media, especially opening the door for Patriots trolls.
  17. Favorable news so far. Very curious to see what Reynolds can do with the Ravens. Good luck on getting the final approval Keenan.
  18. Ozzie's 4th round draft dance made me laugh.
  19. I guess Tom Brady is having a world class hissy fit right now about his suspension being re-instated. Warms my heart.
  20. I certainly hope that the Ravens have already been able to identify some areas of needed improvement with the strength and conditioning program and that some of these changes have already been adopted. The need to revamp this program is going to be critical for the many guys rehabbing also. Active changes by the training staff to their conditioning routines are needed now, if we stand a chance to have a healthy, successful season.
  21. SSS has such a big heart. Wish there were some clips of him busting some dance moves at the Prom. Hoping he is is healing well and has a spectacular last season with us.
  22. Thank you Steve Smith for speaking up publicly about Domestic Violence in response to Greg Hardy's denials. So glad SSS is a Raven and that he always tells it like it is.
  23. I think the prohibitions during the off-season are absurdly excessive anyway. Brilliant suggestion by Bisciotti.
  24. Super gesture by Bisciotti to step up and charter a plane for players and personnel to go to Tray's funeral. Not only did the charter plane make it easier for everyone but the time shared on the plane as friends and teammates to reflect, grieve and talk was probably comforting to all.
