The Good: 
On D, the Ravens D is relatively what you'd expect it to be.  Sergio Kindle is running around like a madman, Donnell Ellerbe is starting to lock down the inside starting position, and Paul Kruger is really starting to shine as an OLB.
On O, Ray Rice is Ray Rice, Lee Evans is all that plus a bag of chips, and Vonte Leach actually caught a pass in the flat and blew a KC defender the. Fuck. Up.

The Bad:
You're going to see Flacco doing a lot of sprints and roll-outs this season.  We call this the "Fight or Flight" instinct.

Did you hear about the Bears kicking from the old spot during most of their first preseason game and the game officials didn't notice?

Yeah, but the league office did after the game.  :D  They were not amused.

During the game.  He called the booth officials and told them to straighten the fuck up.

Maybe Justin Boren can stick with the team.

The game starts here in two hours.  I'll be watching.

Yeah, the O-line has me terrified, because if Birk isn't there on opening day they're fucked, and they might be fucked even then because there's going to be a weak spot on the line, either at guard or tackle.  Whereever Yanda isn't.

FYI Neil, Ray Lewis isn't playing tonight;  his aunt is deathly ill and got the OK to skip the game.  Ray, that is.  Not his aunt.

Yeah, I'd heard.  It's better not having him in anyways.  After all those years, the guy knows how to get ready for the season.  Why take the risk of getting hurt, especially with all those linebackers on the roster.

Are they playing Kindle inside or out?

I saw an ESPN special where they followed Mccoy around after he was drafted.  Kid is a fucking retard.  Didn't even know the Browns were in the AFC, as an example.

The fact that he can speak English well enough to be understood puts him above a lot of the league.

I know London Fletcher. We did a football camp together. So I know him. That's the closest thing I know to London. He's black, so I'm sure he's not from London. I'm sure that's a coincidental name" Crowder retired.

Not any worse IMO than when McNabb admitted he didn't know a game could end in a tie, after having been in the league several years.

There's plenty or stupid to go around in the NFL, believe me.

Speaking of stupid, I may come out of retirement & run one of the video printers for the Bungles this year.  I told my brother if I hear any coach bitch about my prints, I'm walking.  I took shit from football coaches in high school, but no way in hell I'm doing that at age 37.

I don't really hold that much against McNabb.  I mean, how many ties are there in the NFL?

I always liked McNabb, but come on--  it never dawned on him what the "T" column was for in the standings??  He never wondered what happened when the 15 minutes of OT expired?

LOLZ. Isn't Haley a Belicheat disciple? No wonder there was some butthurt there.

QuoteIt's Only The Second Week Of NFL Preseason Games, And Todd Haley Is Already Pissed Off

The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 31-13 last night. That final score was seasoned with two Ravens touchdowns in the final two minutes.

Preseason games are a time for never rans to catch the coach's attention, and the fourth quarter of the second game is traditionally known as scrub-time. Todd Haley, though, Todd Haley doesn't see it like that. Because Todd Haley doesn't give a fuck about anything except #winning. So, Todd Haley made this perfectly clear to Ravens head coach John Harbaugh to the point that Harbaugh addressed it at the onset of his post-game presser.

    "I want to apologize to the Chiefs if they feel like we were not doing the right thing at the end of the game," Harbaugh said. "That wasn't the mindset, OK? The mindset was – this is the preseason. If this had been the regular season, we would've been on a knee. The idea in that situation is to give those young guys who work hard and who are trying to make a football team – this football team or another football team – to play the whole 60 minutes and give them a chance to show what they can do. Offensive line, running backs, everybody."

However, Todd Haley didn't acknowledge being pissed off when asked about it during his post-game presser, noting that "I just control what we do." Todd Haley handles his business man-to-man, so John Harbaugh will certainly hear about going public with it.

Todd Haley needs to find better scrubs then.
