Y'all need to get a life!
I'll probably get blasted for saying this, but I am so sick and tired of all the whining fans about this Ravens team and Brian Billick on the radio shows and the message boards
. I am tired of the whinefest, I don't have enough cheese and crackers for all y'all's whine.Y'all are some hateful people
This is not life and death, people
We're having a bad year because of a number of things, the major thing is injuries..Ya know something, we should just be happy to have a team
or do you all forget that we didn't have one for a number of years...Every team goes through problems and this year it's our turn...Just had to get that off my chest
..Thanks for listening, let the fire begin!

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
Everybody emotionally resolves the pain of unmet expectations at a different pace. How quickly they rearrange and adjust expectations for the future is how quickly they can return to enjoying the activity that in the first place created the pain.
I am not so sure your post is truly reflective of a mature journey through this process.
Rave on, Baby.

Ugh. Not another one of these threads where people bit each other's heads off. Stop it, please.
Oh, and if you don't enjoy the whine, don't go to the restaurants where people are drinking it.

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
I get what you're saying.
But really, with the expectations for this team being so high and the drop being so fast and quick, it's hard not to expect and understand what's being said.
Im actually over it as far as the disappointment. At least we won't be twisting in the wind all year fighting to barely make the playoffs. Our fate is pretty much sealed after 9 games.
Im just gonna enjoy the tailgates from here on out.

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
Everyone is a little edgy around here. These types of threads are understandable and probably good for a little in house fun.
WOW! I feel so fortunate that the Ravens did what they had to do to make this happen. Thank you. My Heart is with the Raven....My Heart is with Baltimore and its great fans. What can I say. Here We Go!!! --Ray Lewis
No, Thank you Ray...

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
I just remember when we didn't have a team
I longed for a team and we finally got one! I love the Ravens and it is hard to see them have a losing season, but at least we have a team....Injuries played a HUGE roll in our deficiency as a contender...I don't care what anyone else says, it hurts to have so many injuries at one time at KEY positions...Brian Billick was dealt the cards he has this year and I think he did the best he could with what he was dealt...Sure he made a few bad play calls, but I don't think he trusted this offensive line...They are so young..That being said, he took the team to 13-3 last year, took us to a Super Bowl and won it, and he had the youngest team in the NFL a couple of years ago, one game away from making the playoffs....I just get frustrated with the so called "fans" of the Ravens going off about this and that...I was just venting...

I just remember 58-7. That seems like ages ago!

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
Excuses, excuses. What is it now? Injuries? McNair was supposed to be healthy as a horse after "resting" for 2 weeks and the bye and come back for Pittsburgh. A "healthy" McNair almost single-handedly lost 2 division games for us by turning the ball over constantly. And Billick, the genius, is about the only man on the planet who thinks McNair shouldn't be benched right now. (until the mysterious shoulder injury today)
Hell, even if we had Cmac and Rolle playing against Pittsburgh, we still lose that game with the horrendous offense this team keeps trotting out there.
What exactly is your point about having a team now? No one here is denying we don't love having the Ravens in town, but when the team you love underperforms and seems blind to fix the obvious problems, we as fans have a right to grumble. I can't sit here with purple-colored glasses on and blame all of the problems this year on injuries, because it's a lot more than that.

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
Yes, don't whine,don't complain,don't do anything.And before you know it we could become as bad as the Miami Dolphins.
Messageboards,radio shows,are a great place to vent,and let out your frustrations.People who are angry and frustrated at this point show me how much they love their team.They are hyper emotional about how far the team has sung,how high their expectations were for this team.
Picking holes where holes do not exist is stupid.But this team has plenty of holes and hang ups at the moment.It does not hurt for us to talk about them.Put the smile back on your face.This is a 60 minute ball game.

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
All of this tells me one thing--that we really love our team. If that weren't so, we would not spend time writing and posting. We all should value the opinion of others, even if it isn't exactly our own.
However, I have seen things get personal and insulting over the past 2 weeks. I am going to enjoy the remaining games, even New England and the Colts, because they are good teams with good players and I like football.
I will hold out hope for a win, but if we lose, we always have the hope of next year with all the changes it brings.

Re: Y'all need to get a life!
No offense tspot...but get off your podium. People have a right to be pissed...and being pissed shows they do care about this team. If they didn't people wouldn't give a crap about what they did or how bad their play really sucks.
