I find it funny that so many people are getting tired of the "Ray Lewis Thing", yet just can't get enough of how great Brady is, or how remarkable Peyton's season was.

NFL.com posted an article debating if Ray Lewis coverage was overdone and if they were all sick of it. This. Coming from people who post Tom Brady's vacation pictures like they're a Superbowl highlight reel.

Awesome.

He's a Steeler with dementia .. I don't expect him to give anyone in the Purple and Black any respect .. Like he said move on, I couldn't care less what that old man thinks, He'll be singing a different tune when Big Jen retires.

Maybe Bradshaw's jealous that he never got the same attention as Ray Lewis' farewell tour?

I mean, I wouldn't fault him. Everyone wants to be recognized for their contributions when they're ready to retire -- just, everyone's not worthy of such recognition.

I normally don't double dip but this post is still on my mind... lol

The only game where it was alllll about Ray Lewis was the Colts game, because it was Baltimore's last home game for him. He did his dance twice, got all the camera time etc. But the Denver game didn't show him nearly as much love, atleast none that he didn't deserve. No dance, no intro, I dont even think he was in a commercial. So Bradshaw need's to chill a little bit.

[font=trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif][i]They could focus a camera on Ray Lewis the entire game and I would gladly watch him pace the sidelines, coach up the other players, drink Gatorade, watch him on every down of the game. And commercial breaks, put 4 or 5 Ray commercials, back-to-back-to-back-to-back (counts...1.2.3.4) -to-back...[/i][/font]

The only people who think the whole "Ray Lewis thing" is overdone are Steelers, Patriots, and maybe a few Redskins fans, and the occasional former player from any of those teams. Ray Lewis deserves whatever recognition he gets. He's the GOAT at LB. They ALREADY do the same thing with Manning/Brady, and it will get 10x worse when they go to retire.

Terry asks how many times Ray is gonna retire?
Probably a lot fewer times than you've been divorced, Bradshaw.

The day I start caring what a Steeler thinks of the greatest ever Ravens player is the day I give up following football.

I'd like to be all PC and say 'Bradshaw is a legend of the game, maybe he was misquoted' blah blah blah but the truth is Bradshaw is a Steeler and I hate the Steelers. So what Bradshaw thinks of Ray Lewis doesn't mean jack to me.

They could show Ray Lewis sewing his own jersey and fixing his shoulder pads and I'd think it was the most compelling thing on television.

why does anyone care what Bradshaw thinks? Why does anyone expect people outside of Baltimore to have the same love/respect for Raven players as we have? Everyone who doesnt feel as you do isnt a jerk,hick or whatever

Basically, he was asked about Ray's retirement and if he thinks it's still providing motivation for the team. He responded by saying he'll be glad when he retires, and asking "how many times are you going to retire?"
[/quote]

That might be more of a sign of a mental illness than a bias. He might actually have something wrong with him, it sounds like he's going senile.

I've never had a problem with Terry Bradshaw as an nfl hosts/ analysts. But that interview he is kind of babbling like some drunk person ranting about random stuff that doesn't make any sense.

He says " he didn't know it was Ray Lewis' team! He's tired of this! How many times is he going to Retire move on already etc"

The radio hosts tell him its ray Lewis first and only time ever retiring so what are u tired of the dancing?

It's funny that when Bret Favre did his annual Retirement party the only person involved with sports talk to criticize him was Stephen A. Smith which was one of the man reasons for him being dismissed for ESPN for nearly 2 years. ( Stephen A constantly talked about it on his website ).
He's tired of the media talking about Ray Lewis. But Tom Brady and Peyton manning get far more publicity than the entire Ravens team, its laughable!

He does mention that Flacco is the reason we are winning. And I will agree Flacco has played tremendously thus far in the playoffs. And perhaps some of the media personalities that have constantly bashed Flacco should give him some credit as well as Jim Caldwell for better game planning.

I actually like Terry, very entertaining guy.
I expect his usual Steeler bias, but I'm surprised at this, he's usually a bit classier than that.

I am very surprised at all the disrespect the Patriots are getting in Las Vegas. Having them as only a 9 point favorite when clearly they should be favored by 21 or more is embarrassing

Terry took too many shots to the head. He is deteriorating.

Not sure if you said this in jest but I think there is some truth here. Bradshaw has done some work with the military on suicide prevention. In the videos he talks about his depression and issues. But you can tell there are other issues there as well. He is unable to speak coherent thoughts. He is trying to tell us about what he went through but he gets lost in his own thoughts on the video. I would bet money he has suffered brain damage like some of the recent high profile football players that killed themselves.

Terry i can see what you would say something like this. It must be hard when you weren't even the best player on your team much less your position. Haters hate that's what they do. Without hate they have no function.

Terry Bradshaw always was and always will be another hail mary Quarterback on a good team. Mark Rypien type.
