Hey I just realized that we're going to be on Hard Knocks in two weeks....or are we? Does the show end when training camp ends?

Your exactly right, just absolutly sux. If his attitude would change from being the biggest asshole alive, we could probabley be a top 5 deffense. As long as his attitude sux, it will hold us back. Im glad Bruce finally has the reigns on this team and Vinny and dumb ass Danny Boy has taken a back seat so in the future we wont have pricks like this take the field. HTTR

I will even brush off my couch and have my wife serve you hors devours as you watch this game in its entirety. If when the game is over and you still feel the same way I will offer up my children as your personal servants. AH is a lazy ass underachieving punk. Even when he tried to make a play he got handled.

Me and Pocket in the same boat huh? Not bad company!! And for the record, I bullshit at least 50% of the time, meaning I just shoot from the hip. No fun just agreeing with everyone all the time. I still think bringing in Gus as #3 QB wasn't as crazy as you guys think it was, no BSing there. Whether AH is a crazy, underachieving punk or not, he is our lazy ass underachieving punk til his contract is up. Thank Cerrato and co for his dumbass contract. No DT or DE is worth $100 million.

It is easy to be jealous of Al and get pissed off at him for speaking his mind but the FRONT OFFICE is who empowered him. At the end of the day no matter what you say and no matter what he says he is the best defensive lineman on the team. If you can't see that, I really don't want to see what your wife looks like.

At the time he was signed he was the highest paid defensive player in the league. Argue with that one smartass! Does his play represent that? I can name rookies outperforming him this year and last. Maybe not on this team but then again he really hasn't done shit for this team...talent or not.

You are questioning my wife's looks based on my judgement? I wish you would comment just to proove how blind you really are.

I think anyone on this site would rather have AH starting over Golston. But not at the expense of all this bullshit. Malcontent little children who collect money on their word to work hard and then stomp their feet when everything doesn't go the exact way they want should't be rewarded.

All of us like to play Devil's Advocate from time to time. It seems as though you have that position on permanent lockdown. Honestly, whether you are bullshitting or shooting from the hip or whatever, the stuff that comes out of yor fingers is just mindblowingly retarded.

[GusFrerotte]

Please give me examples outside of the Gus Frerotte stuff of what is mindblowingly retarded.

On a side note the one thing I hate about these Baltimore-DC games is I feel like I have to choose a city. I grew up in the DMV area when the teams were the Washington Bullets, Washington Capitals, Washington Wizards, and Baltimore Orioles. We never had to choose. I love both cities and feel weird having to claim one, almost like I'm part of a gang. Ironically if two teams hadn't moved my teams today would probably be the Bullets, Caps, Senators, and Colts.

I personally always hope the Ravens and Nats do well except when they play the Skins and Orioles. Is anyone else the same way or am I insane?

By the way, if you live in New York how do you choose to root for the Jets or Giants? I can understand the Yankees and Mets since their stadiums are separate and if all else fails you can just choose the team closer to your borough, but obviously the Giants and Jets share a stadium.

The crazy thing is that you actually know what you are talking about until you break down games. I would have to pull your posts from last year to show you examples. If you still want I can provide.

I'm the same way. I really like some players on the Ravens. Michael Oher, Anquan Boldin, Ray Rice, Troy Smith, Ed Reed, Tom Zbikowski to name a few. Plus I like Harbaugh as a head coach. I've got no beef with the Ravens. And I grew up an O's fan, but I was born in DC. Unless the Nats are playing the O's, I'm all for them.

That said, I hope Strasburg's arm is ok.

The Washington Post is reporting we got crushed...I don't see from a starters point of view this team played well.

I think we actually played fairly well in the 1st half. Considering this is a new offense with a new QB. Truthfully, it was 6-3 at the end of the 1st half with starters against starters. How often is a fake punt going to happen in the regular season?

I like the chemistry that Moss and Cooley are developing with Mcnabb. 200 yds on the starting defense for the Ravens? Pretty good if you ask me.

Plus, Portis seems to be playing much better then LJ looked last night.
LJ missed a block last night and about got Donovan killed. He also looked very sloppy in the running game as well.

The offensive line looked a little sloppy but 3 new starters with only a couple of months of practice against a pretty elite defensive team.

Personally, this game just made me feel even more positive about the team this year and for years to come.

Per Aaron Wilson:
Donovan McNabb was limping earlier with an ankle injury. Didn't seem very serious.

You know that Aaron Wilson is actually a reporter, he's not from the Ravens, right?

[mredskins]

looking at the b-more sun they too were not impressed with their teams performance.last year i went to this game in b-more and trust me there was zero positives to take away this team has improved.

Thats what I meant. Sorry for not being clear. I would have said the same thing if I was talking about the Redskins from another teams perspective. For example "It took a guy from the Redskins to tell me what I wanted to know. Per Jason Reid."
