I love it when the Steelers fans get mad at us because we talk bad about their team. Ummmm, hello, this is a RAVENS forum, not an NFL in general discussion. They're so stupid sometimes!!

They don't understand why we give y'all a little bit of leniency when it comes to defending our team (within reason).

I mean, they're guests in our house. When you visit guests, I'd like to think you'd be overly respectful of them and abide by the rules, and I'd hope [i]they'd[/i] expect the same of [i]their[/i] guests.

I guess some of them don't understand the concept of wiping their feet before stepping in someone's home.

[MsMarvel73]

I was gonna mention that, but I thought the custom might go over people's heads. lol.

But yes, it's simple: they don't have to kiss our butts; they just have to be respectful and know that we won't tolerate them berating our team.

New Peeve.

Writing off our chances in the playoffs before they've even begun.

Oh, and Super Bowls grow on trees (again).

...not being thrilled that we're getting to the post season AGAIN (and yes, I know the ultimate goal is the SB, but you need chances to do that and what are chances? Playoff appearances!!!)

I'm just starting to believe that only a handful of them are actually respectful. The Prophet and Warden are really the only ones on this board who were ever thoughtful. That Wallace dude is just annoying and ratedr is too. But it's all good

Pitts2000 knows what he's talking about and seems to be respectful from what I've seen

What's the deal lately with the purple jerseys? I mean are people afraid of wearing purple? What do they feel "less of a man" for wearing purple or something? Are they insecure of the sexuality? lol I dunno about them but I like the color.

Yeah black jerseys are cool and all but I feel they have their place. Prime time night games at home.

Perhaps they've seen the sticker that I saw on the back of a local Steelers fan's vehicle:

"Real men don't wear purple."

I lol'ed maliciously.



Men who wear purple are fine in my book, as are men who aren't ashamed to cry!

[Romo Ravens]

There's nothing wrong with purple. I love our jerseys. I've heard from random people that we have the best looking jerseys in the league, and I'm going to have to agree with them.

That's what I'm saying. Apparently even our own fans think differently.

[hawkprey]

My new pet peeve goes something like this.

Me: "Ravens fans aren't that stupid. We don't think that just because a team is "hungry" in the playoffs (who isn't?) means they're going to win."
Next Poster: "OMG Ravens are to hungry to lose stinky Texans SB here we come!"

You know Ravens fans are never happy. Have you read 70% of the posts in "Ravens Talk" ?

I think you need some negative Nancy's on occasion to balance out the point of views. If there were none, 1/28/01 would go insane

They keep me on my toes, that's for sure

[Perfekt]

i dont know if this one has been said but its bugs me when people hate on a player an then come back to be like yea I always liked him.... Webb is a prime example of that.


Oh yea and the Cam supporters that are really haters as well just love to kiss up every now an then.

[Purple Nurple]

You can vet me like a presidential candidate. I've loved Webb since day one. I just had a feeling. I hope he continues to shine!

I wish we were allowed to speak about religion. Its really hard to talk about all of the aspects of Tim Tebow with out religious discussion.

How so? Football and religion are two totally separate subjects. How is talking about Tebow and football difficult without bringing up religion? I dont get it. You say ALL THE ASPECTS. How many aspects is religion? One.

Just saying.

[JonM229]

Tebow is a mediocre quarterback who has moments of amazing play.

See? No religion mentioned.

[Purple Nurple]

The real irony here? Check out todays Late For Work. *facepalm*

[BirdWatcher]

No kidding. I think the Bloggers hate us mods. That thread is going to be trouble.

[Purple Nurple]

Had to throw the Alphabits thing in there, lol. That thread is gone in a couple hours Ill bet.
