Well I do appreciate that therapeutic session Dudeman I really do. However your perceived ideas and ideals seemed to be based on such a personal level. Let me correct you on a couple of points. First of all football is not a game it is a business. It is based principally on a financial pyramid foundation. Teams are owned and operated and funded by corporations and banks-who in turn make their money on the fans through various advertising gimmicks and enterprises. In most cases the fans stand meekly by and accept whatever palaver is spoon fed to them.In your case that seems to be the case. Now in many cities these corporations have been shelling out the same kind of losing teams for decades. i.e the cardinals, seahawks, broncos, dolphins etc. Oh sure once in a while they are contenders but mostly they are not.I do believe that is not the case here in Baltimore and I honestly believe that for the most part the fans are getting fed up with the mediocrity. We want a winner here in Baltimore and thats what we are paying for. To summarize Dudeman your personal points about a strictly business venture are shallow and transparent and your efforts to be "helpful" are absurd. I am a business man and football is a business and my observations are based solely on The Baltimore Ravens to be the ultimate success. If you choose to sit by and accept less then thats where you will remain.

It sounds like being a fan of this team is a job to you. Why don't you just stop being so serious and just enjoy being a Ravens fan? It may be a business for the players, coaches, owners, ect., but we're fans buddy and we can just sit back and enjoy the ride. It's been a good one so far this year too.

Better get used to the "rollercoaster" because Joe will be around for awhile. You know what's hazardous to one's health? Watching a team quarterbacked by Elvis Grbac or Kyle Boller. Joe Flacco is quite a pleasure to watch if you ask me, especially taking into account our history at the QB position.

He made a bet with someone (and lost, go figure) and had to make that pro Flacco thread.

Had this drop not occurred, we may not even be having this Flacco can't beat Pitt in the playoffs discussion. Just an FYI to Flacco doubters

For the record, I definitely don't think Boldin Sucks, it's not my youtube video and I certainly wouldn't have titled it that if it was.

^ That drop and that game still piss me soooo much haha.

There is absolutely no way Flacco deserves to go to the Pro Bowl this season, his stats are lackluster at best, and he has been the definition of inconsistent all season.

Me too man, I think I should delete that video. It's too haunting of what could have been. Boldin post game interview even had the nerve to say it was a low ball, not a good pass, he couldn't own up to it.

Just for the record , I think this graph does a nice job of showing the change in the nature of the Ravens since the start of the Harbs - Flacco - Rice era :
