First off... Happy Birthday Joe Flacco

now go get your Hunt Trophy.

 

Second, listening to 1057 The Fan out of Baltimore (Mark Viviano & The Bulldog) I heard a relatively humorous Rex Ryan audio clip.  I've searched for the audio but can't find it so I'll just have to post the quote. 

from Fanhouse.com

 

During a Thursday presser, [Rex] Ryan, when asked about Willie Parker looking better, offered this with a smile on his face:
"I guess he got a lot of yards against San Diego, and I read all the experts say we would have given up 150 yards to the running back from Tennessee. ...But remember, he never finished the game for some reason. Whatever that reason is, they can cry all they want. Who cares? We're here. We're still playing, and they can watch us."

The opinions posted here are those of the administrator of this blog and his loyal readers. They are in no way official comments from the team, and should not be misconstued as such, even though he thinks he could do just as well or even a better job!

THat was a great quote

and I have a feeling that we won’t see it in the papers…

I got that weird feeling from 2001, and Rex is feeling it too: they (the media and the critics) just don’t UNDERSTAND the passion…

perfect quote and thats how it went down…there was no luck in that game. hitting hard and getting turnovers is as much of the game as another team getting into the red zone. it was even throughout. we had costly TO’s as well. they missed a 50+ yard field goal-that is no gimme. Collins INT technically wasn’t a red zone turnover because he launched it from way out. the 2 fumbles were just agressive D plays. our D was better than their RB’s/TE. simple. the titans dominated nothing. we beat them twice this year. we’ll beat them again next year… Pitt is going down the same way. It’s just the way we play/have always played -REAL UGLY.

Hopefully someone buys Flaccid a razor to shave his eyebrow...

into two seperate ones. That would be the best present for him. I am fairly certain that “running back from Tennessee” would surely have had 150 yards against you, had he not been intentionally bent in half. Shady!

Being bent in half

isn’t why he left the game. He left the game because of an ankle injury.

So....

you’re telling me, that if two NFL size players are laying on your legs, FEET & ANKLES INCLUDED, and someone wrenches the top half of your body around, you’re in no way risking an ankle injury? Whatever makes you feel better man!

by Cdsumm on Jan 16, 2009 2:58 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

No risk what so ever

He was going for the ball, DUH!

Keep crying

No worries

doesn’t really matter anymore, does it? : )

Lamest Argument Ever

Chris Johnson always had the option of going down, didn’t he? If you are going to go for the extra yards you have to be a man. This is football. It is a contact sport.

Get out of the kitchen if you can’t take the heat.

i looked at thew “bend” again.. the whistle didn’t blow and another camera shot shows Reed pulling up on the ball. the refs let them play. he played another down after that so when was the ankle hurt. he’s too small to last as a RB in this league. i could easily say to you that Ed Reed should have had 2 picks but he was playing sick and hurt. Or, Suggs would have had 4 sacks but he hurt his shoulder. Or, McClain would have had 100 yards in the 4th quarter but he hurt his ankle. We hit harder than you (always do) and you folded like a lawn chair again.

Your comparasins make no sense.

I believe you only have to use about an ounce of common sense to know it was that play he was hurt on. My point was he was WELL on pace to far exceed 150 yards. His forward momentum was stopped, he was 3 yards from a 1st, hence, no need for the blatant bend. You can sit there and “if” all day about things. No one went out and intentionally tried to take one of the players your “if-ing” about out of the game! Not sure where you were going with this one?

by Cdsumm on Jan 16, 2009 1:44 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

you stated “surely would have”…i stated might have..whats the difference..its all speculation.. CJ ran well on the play after the “bend” play. i think he got it twisted as he ran out of bounds actually..looked like someone fell on his ankle as they pulled up. remember Ward makes 1/2 his living on “shady” plays.

Yeah...

but Hines plays for the Steelers…..LOL.

“Lightning Bug” is a terrible nickname?

I can actually picture the phosphorescent goo smeared across Ray Lewis’s helmet making the Raven’s eye glow.

the new movie “It’s A Lightening Bug’s Life” just came out…it’s about a bug who sits in his high chair and watches the Ravens Steelers Game on TV.

I think Flacco should be called The Cylon (Battle Star Galactica). With his Unibrow. All he needs is a red light going back and forth on it.

by raven on Jan 16, 2009 3:20 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Then wouldn't we call him

K.I.T.T.?

and he does have a red light… his laser-rocket arm.

How about Sproles Roloff?

Flacco is 24..that means he graduated at 23. Man, I graduated at 21. If I had 2 more years of growth I would have been twice the ball player i was. It would have been growth difference of weighing 160 to 185 plus being smarter/stronger. The lesson here is to start kids later in college to take advantage of maturity. I’d put a kid in college at 21 so he could be 25 his senior year. 25 vs. 18-19 year olds. No competiton with all else being about the same. 23 vs. 18 year olds…same deal. remember the Florida State QB who graduated at 27. F’n rediculous. Back To School. How about the 30 year old basketball player for George Mason years ago when they almost went to the sweet 16. Too much of an advantage for the “old” dudes.

Is there q fifth year for acedemics? I guess there’s as many as you’re willing to pay for it!

redshirt?..hell, i was in the dog house from day one because i told the baseball coach (after being told that freshman are slaves) that i’m not a cheerleader. D-III sucked. My high school teams were better.

I’m going to start the Sports College of America (SCA). All sports all day. Every state will have one. I’ll have all the top players and all the pro-teams will line up at the doors to buy my players. No NCAA rules or anything. They can be in commercials and get paid for games/ticket receipts. They can run with Ricky Williams or Plexico Burris. Doesn’t matter.

Mike Vick is a numb dude. There are sick people (like on here) and there are SICK people. People who use animals to act out agression have serious problems.

with a 4.1 in Pittsburghian Physics… you know, if a log raft went across the Alleghany River at 1 mph with a current of 2 mph how long would it take to get to the Steeler game with your deer jerky and Hamms beer. Stuff like that.
