honestly Im a ravens fan and he’s right, its a little bit of a pussy request. The Ravens played the Steelers tough all three times last season and I’m sure they will again this season, I’d honestly love to see the Ravens go into Pitt and win on that stage. Talk about an opportunity to start a season out with momentum

1. It’s still a chickenshit REQUEST.

2. Interesting straw man argument. According to the article, the officials watched the videos of said controversial hits and said they didn’t determine Ward led with the helmet. Not sure what that has to do with things officials miss during the course of games. The rest of your response is too muddled to counter.

Ape, honestly?

1. “How’s about taking the schedule the NFL gives them” – Well then why does the NFL take scheduling REQUESTS (as the article states)? The Ravens REQUESTED to have the right to open at home, they can avenge whenever they deem fit to do so.

2. “NFL officials didn’t observe Ward going helmet-to-helmet in the mentioned hits” – SRSLY? The list of things that officials “haven’t observed” could crash your servers . . . and that’s counting the offenses against EVERY team in the NFL, not just Baltimore.

Ray Ray is scared of the dark. Ray Ray is scared of the steelers in the dark.

Profiles in courage. Perhaps the Ravens can meet up with the Bruins and work out their mutual lack of b@lls in the ‘burgh.

All the players should stop taking HGH and steroids and being enormously massive beasts that put tremendous strain upon their joints and ligaments and make them more susceptible to injury, especially when hammered repeatedly by other immense, drug-enhanced gargatuans.

Or, you know, pussify the rules. That’s a lot easier to do!

Nice spin, Timmy. How’s about taking the schedule the NFL gives them and having a chance to avenge three losses to a division foe in their opponent’s house on a national stage whilst they’re celebrating a title win? Smacks of cowardice to dodge that. Wouldn’t you rather have the bulk of your road games at the beginning of the year? Hell, the Ravens had the game to decide the division last year in their house in December. Sounds like a preferable situation to me (‘cept the whole losing part).

As for the blindside rule, the article states the NFL officials didn’t observe Ward going helmet-to-helmet in the mentioned hits, so he wouldn’t even be breaking the rule he inspired. And if they have to add one to the books (to further soften the game) he mustn’t have been breaking one before, right?

Well you’re talking about a rule to protect people not even looking at you from getting their jaw broken on a meaningless play on the other side of the field just because some grinning idiot wants to hit somebody?

Nice distortion on the Keith Rivers hit. If by “the other side of the field” you mean “about to tackle the ballcarrier before he was blocked,” I guess that holds up. Keep on whinin’, trooper.

Wait, so the Ravens know they will play the Shittsburgh Kid Feelers at least twice no matter how the NFL makes the schedule, and they request that one of those two games not be on the first weekend of the season so they can open at home in back-to-back years for the first time in 10 years? I am outraged.

As for a “Dirty Cheap Shot” rule that prevents players from making blindside blocks helmet to helmet, how is that any different from the existing rule that says you can’t lead with your helmet or hit a QB with your helmet? Those are understandably irritating because if the player can see the defender, they can move right? Well you’re talking about a rule to protect people not even looking at you from getting their jaw broken on a meaningless play on the other side of the field just because some grinning idiot wants to hit somebody?

“Awwwww, so sarrry, me shoulda prayed refrense!”
