I'm sure they will have it on local channels as well as the nfl network. If not, wait a hour and it will be on nfl.com and br.com

[Bullrush]

The Ray Lewis Press Conference has been changed. Well not compeletely, it will just take place at HalfTime of the Maryland Cal game instead of 4pm

So if u are playing on watching don't just tune in at 4pm, Look for it sooner, as maryland tips off at 2:55 and slightly before 4pm.

Here's the link from Masn.

Tune in to MASN right now for the press conference.

[Ravnet]

Ray sure is making his case as he stated that he never visited another team, and always knew that he'd be back in Baltimore as "God never makes a mistake."

[Ravnet]

Like I suspected, Ray downplayed his comment to Jamie Dukes in Hawaii. He said that everyone has a few drink at the Pro Bowl, and he was simply "having fun."

I was about to post that, he downplayed a lot of it.

[Schinz]

I can't get to a TV with MASN please keep the comments coming.

[Ravnet]

Lewis emphasized that he now has the bulk of his family in Maryland, and leaving would have been quite a burden.

Ray is now raving about Mattison as "the boat doesn't stop" when players/coaches depart.

A lot has been said, wait for it to be up on the site. I don't mean that to be rude, but there is way too much going on for us to cover all of this for you.

[Ravnet]

"I'm not here to please the world," Lewis said when asked to comment on those who were bitter about the rumors flying around.

I think that Ray brings up a good point in that moving would have entailed him having to transport his entire family, and that really wouldn't have been in best interest for another $5 million.

I'm trying to hit the major points without including the rhetoric like, "Hey, we're a team, not just a defense."

[Ravnet]

Ray brought up Gooden, saying that he keeps a line of contact open with another Miami alum.

It's nice to hear Lewis mention that he's only ever wanted to wear purple.

[Black&Purple]

They asked him come September on opening day will the fans embrace him like they always do, and he said they only way they wouldn't, would be if he wasn't on the field.

[Ravnet]

Lewis continues to note that those speculating had "absolutely no clue" of the actual situation. Luckily, Ray was there to pray for them whilst, apparently, crying in the shower.

[Black&Purple]

"If they didn't talk to me then you wrote what you [i]wanted[/i] to write."

He said that regarding the negativity, and stated no one talked to him directly.

[Ravnet]

Steve is quite honest in his assesment when he says that Ozzie put a deal on the table, Ray was allowed to go test the market, but ultimately, Lewis didn't have to take less to remain a Raven.

Bisciotti just got to the meat as he said, in quite blunt terms, that Ray did test the market, Ozzie/Steve did consent, and the Ravens did have the highest offer.

Ray seemed visibly uncomfortable when Steve mentioned that Lewis might have liked to play in New York after 13 years in Baltimore. I don't buy into Lewis wanting to see a new city, rather that turning down $10 million+ would have been pretty stupid.

[Ravnet]

"There is enough bronze out there" to build a Ray Lewis statue next to Johnny's.

[Black&Purple]

They asked if there will be a Ray statue, and Steve Bisciotti said they would have to figure out how to move the Johnny Unitas statue to balance them out.

[Ravnet]

It's over, back to the Terps.

thanks dude!

[Bazooka Joe]

What was funny was watching Steve Bisciotti really squirm during the session as if he wanted to speed things along so he could get back to the Maryland/Cal game.
