Remember when I was being obnoxious about the Houshmanhorseface/Mason comparison a few weeks ago (sorry for the level of it by the way)? This is the invaluable measure of a man like Mason that I was talking about. Sometimes, it's not as much the stat line as the character of the man that makes one valuable.

[quote name='DTenGil' post='108989' date='Dec 20 2008, 09:29 PM']apparently Gaither isn't the only Raven that can play with one arm! Gotta give Mason mad props. I thought Ray Lewis was the toughest player on this team, but now I'm not so sure. Mason is one tough SOB[/quote]

[color="#800080"][size=3][font="Comic Sans MS"][font="Comic Sans MS"]YES HE IS. I couldn't believe my eyes. When he went down the first time I didn't think he was going to get back up but he did. After that I just knew he would sit on the sidelines for the rest of the game, but NO , he kept getting back in the game. He is a great player. I wonder how he is feeling today.

Mason is some kind of beast.

He just kept coming back for more.
I know I would have sat down the rest of the game.

Props to him.

BTW who had better numbers Mason or Owens?

I can't describe how it felt to see what Mason was doing out there last night. When he went down that first time and was rolling around on the turf I thought there was no way he was coming back in the game.

I should have known better!

Mason's performance yesterday was "inspirational" on so many levels. You saw the incredible amount of pain he was in and yet he would still come up "smiling" after the catch.

The man had zero mobility in his arm yet he was still Flacco's "go to guy". Also, hand it to Flacco for putting the ball in the area where Mason could still catch it without pulling his arm out of socket.

We all knew he was playing with a bad arm but last night showed just how painful this injury is. He couldn't hide it at that point but still got the job done.

Mason, the ultimate teammate!

In fantasy they both netted 12 points a piece... I have both.... So they each got in about the 60 yards range Im guessing then each got a TD.

Not far from eachother anyway, Plus he was playing wiht one arm.

Mason is all about team and all about class.
It would have sucked if t(urd).o. "elected" to play in Balt.
Ravens got the ideal player with Mason.
No gun in a club, no soap-opera bulls#$t, no passes hit u in the chest and u drop 'em- Braylon Edwards drops 'em with 2 good hands.
Ravens factor character,integrity and talent into player desicions.
D. Mason is a perfect example.
