Hey fanatic! I read your mock...nice work. I don't think the Ravens can lose in round one this year...hope there's a run on OT's...that will help the Ravens.

McCoy was crying and it made me want to cry...I must be getting sentimental as I gracefully age...

Hey rm52! I'm switching from ESPN (hate hearing Berman) to NFL Network.

Did you see that! While posing for pictures, Sam Bradford told the commishioner (I was reading his lips) "Don't worry Commishioner, I won't screw up like Rthsslxxssbrrgrrr."

Who hanging in here to talk about the draft tonight? I'm going to try to stay awake... I got a feeling the Ravens can't lose in the 1st round tonight.

I guess they had to keep it clean and leave his pants up even though that's not his M.O. when meeting girls.

The Ravens should get somebody good and fill a need.

Dang! That's some serious homework fanatic77! We'll see how it holds up in about an hour. We need a draft thread for tonight to help keep me awake...

Wow!...

Although this isn't their worst start 'record-wise' in team history this might be their worst start ever because of the timing. It's the worst that could happen for a franchise desperately trying to get their fans on board after 12 years of losing. All the new players...all the moves...all the stuff we're supposed to get excited about and "begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel" has been totally washed out. They can't beat anybody. They are out of slogans so I got a new one for them. "Come to the Yard and Watch the Grass Grow!" That's all I expect.

Happy Birthday Billy!

One day to go! "..so I said to myself...max you got to be responsible. You can't stay up that late for the draft and go to work tomorrow. Then I hear this voice in my head say 'Yea right!'. Funny...it was the same voice I heard when I said to you 'We can sleep in bed together and I promise I won't touch you!'"

Solid decision. I hope the Steelers keep him. Every time he takes the field they will be associated with him...a real shitty image. As for their "Great Image"...'teams of character'...that '70s team was loaded with steroid abusers. They never have been squeeky clean.

Is this the year they finally beat the Panthers? Oh...Ravens go 11-5...

First glance/initial thoughts... I love opening against the Jets on MNF even if it is away. That's 'respect' IMO...meaning the league sees the marketability of the "Ravens North" vs the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens get to beat them in their new stadium. "Hey!" 4 out of the first 6 games on the road???? Well...that's offset by 4 of the last 6 at home. 4 Prime Time games...don't like Sunday night but it's the Steelers and it's on our turf...can't wait to "Boo" and pile it on Worthelessbrgrrr. Love getting the Saints here in December. End the regular season by knocking the Bengals out of the playoffs...sweet!

He's sick...real sick...

I want both of them. The Ravens haven't had much luck at RT over the years...lot's of misses with an occasional short term hit. Nobody has jumped on Gaither yet so his value is not in the J.O. stratosphere....maybe a mid-range LT contract would be enough for him. Then there is a very good chance that somebody won't get the LT they want day 1 of the draft and make the Ravens a good offer. It would have to be good because they do not have a true RT on the roster if Oher moves to left. They have "wannabees". That's not the kind of line they want and need. They need to get out of the pattern of bringing in extra blockers on passing downs. Plus, I think Ozzie has the line that he wants. He won't get off it easily. One Fine Day...this 5 man line needs to consistently pick up the blitz and stunts on their own without all the extra help. Lose Gaither and they remain stuck in that pattern.

One more strike and he's out for a year.

Bring on the Yankees and Red Sox!

You mean his Ouiji board or Aakmed at the 7-11?

I just listened to 25 minutes of it on the Ravens website. Even though it's the "Liars Luncheon", you can get good insight into how Ozzie and the front office are building this team. It's an extremely competetive league so a solid FO is vital if you're to seperate yourself from the pack. The Ravens are building for the opening day game and for 2-3 years down the road. They want to stay competetive every year. I'm pumped and ready for the draft in 9 days. "I'll be back."

"What's wrong with choosing to live in Midgeville Georgia?"

Finally I can plan my life!

"I could be next!"

"I'll drink to that."
