    What's funny here is that Ron Fritz is an unabashed life-long Cleveland Browns fan who really does absolutely HATE the Ravens. Yet in his job, he helps cover them and is asked to comment on them. Browns fan conducting a Q&A with Steelers and Ravens fans... my sources inside the building there say he vomited right after it was over. Maybe the other option from The Sun was life-long Steelers fan Matt Vensel.

    Looked like he was a Raven's supporter to me.

    Wasn't real big on them calling the Ravens classless because Koch faked the FG and ran it in for the TD.

    Usually I agree with them.....but in this case things aren't always as they appear and I think the Raiders deserved it.

    1. Curry speared Ray Rice while he was laying on the ground somewhere around the 8 minute mark of the 3rd quarter...he was flagged 15 yds...I believe the Raiders had 4 personal foul calls.

    2. The D back who covered Boldin on a play in the end zone started running his mouth big time and wouldn't shut up....that's when Boldin pointed at the scoreboard.

    3.The Raiders were running their mouths thee entire game

    4. The fake FG happened in the 3rd quarter

    The entire 4th quarter the Ravens didn't try to score on offense.....Ray Rice sat from midway through the 3rd quarter....

    Frankly I think there's no such thing as running up the score in the 3rd quarter...

    A couple fumbles and / or blown coverages and any NFL team with Carson Palmer at QB can put 3 TDs on the board in a matter of minutes...

    Id say that would be true pre Kimo von Oelhoffen deliberately taking his knee out with a cheap shot, he hasn't been the same since.

    Meh, angry because I told the truth? Did not von Oelhoffen take Palmer out in the playoffs with a cheap shot to the knee or not? Yes or no will suffice.

    How about a no. Incidental with no intent as most people know who don't have an agenda.

    Yeah, the more you stick to it the more you might just believe it.

    Let's settle this in one post. Obviously you are one of those message board tough guys who like to get in the face of anyone who likes the opposition. Simplify it.
    ==================================
    You hate me
    my team
    my city
    my parents
    my progeny
    my pets
    my profession
    and all of my views are wrong.

    In turn
    I hate you
    your team
    your citry
    your parents
    your progeny
    your pets
    your profession
    and all you views are wrong.

    That should cover it so it will save a lot of posting.

    I really don't hate any fans. I think the whole concept of these endless posts with the same old smack is silly. It's a game between two excellent teams.

    Have one exception. On a road trip to play Oklahoma they circled our motel all night playing Boomer Sooner and blwoing horns. Could have developed some hate there.

    here's exactly why I disagree with the starters being on the field running up the score....

    Gronk surgery on his broken forearm scheduled for Monday. He's out 4-6 weeks.

    this happened late in the 4th quarter blowout

    It happened on the XP kick after the last touchdown.
