Dear Baltimore and fans..

[Rex Thunder]

Please, that's mild coming from a Steeler fan. We have a rivalry...they hate us, we hate them. What do you want him to say? I'm a diehard Steeler fan but I just love your team? He did express that he respected our team. I loathe the Steelers as much as the next Ravens fan but you guys are being WAY too sensitive and need to untangle your shorts. He didn't come here to start trouble in my opinion, he came to wish our team luck against the Pats. Nothing wrong with that.

Agreed. It's classic "glass half empty: half full" argument. The negative minds looking for shit to nitpick and bark about will find it, while the rational and reasonable fan will realize that was just an "honest" preface to an earnest wish of good luck.

The irony is that, depending on my mood, I may react differently to a post like this. But he was obviously just being facetious with many of his comments, and homeristic as well. No feelings not replicated by most ravens fan on the reverse.

Not sure if the OP is a media type or not, but as I posted in my ranting thread which has died an ignoble death, I still have Ravens Bandwagon Seat Licenses (BSLs©) available....;)

Greetings, Baltimore fans! I am a Steelers fan (as loyal as they come). I would first like to establish that I hate your team before I offer any kind words, lest I lose my standing amongst other Steelers fans. I hate seeing the Ravens take the AFCN (I assure you that the Steelers are merely playing possum and will win the division every year for the remaining years of the NFL). I LOATHE the idea of Flacco with a ring and cannot fathom him actually being mentioned as "elite" if he were to accomplish the unthinkable in a few weeks. Ray Lewis will forever be tarnished in the minds of many for events earlier in his career that we'll never have concrete answers to (same as Ben). The Ravens as a whole are the nemesis of any Steelers fan and as such I will usually always take delight in the shortcomings of your team. However, this weekend is very different.
When the Ravens travel to Foxboro on Sunday they will have at least one more supporter. As deep as my hatred for your Ravens run through my veins, I ENJOY hating the Ravens. Perhaps because the Ravens have a history of playing football the right way- a way similar to the Steelers. I'm particularly interested in the heart your team is showing lately after a mid-season slump. It's obvious that Ray has injected some life into this team throughout the years and even the last few games. Thus, my hatred for the Ravens is a shallow one because I RESPECT the team. I can quite honestly tell you that most Steelers fans who deny similar thoughts are full of shit, just as I believe many of your fans respect our team. Unlike the Ravens though, I genuinely hate the Patriots for many obvious reasons that go far beyond what I'm willing to type out. I would love for nothing more than for the Ravens to knock the Pats out of the playoffs and begin to collapse Brady's window of time to win it all WITHOUT it being tainted. Sure, he's a great QB like many before him. But with a good offensive scheme, a good o-line (most of his career), and the zebras assisting along the way, I'm not going to crown his ass. I sincerely hope it doesn't come down to Cundiff again though. Hopefully your defense shows up big- especially in getting to Brady. If the Ravens can limit his dink-and-dunk I believe Flacco may be able to keep it a game. I just figured you guys may enjoy a bit of praise from a Steelers fan. Next year I'm back to laughing at your misery, but, for now, enjoy the path to your next Lombardi and please crush the Pats and Brady along the way. Good luck this weekend, Baltimore. Go Ravens!

Thanks for the nice post.
Who cares.
Fuck off. :)

Well, I certainly appreciate your post, and, yes, most of RavensNation respects your squad, as well! Having said that, I could never pull for the Steelers against Any team, including Tom Terrific's! I would be pulling for the Patriots to beat BR and the Stillers on Sunday, if the shoe were on the other foot.

Maybe because Brady is pretty boy, flag hustling, pu$$y?

Pretty much sums it up for me other then missing the parts about the media licking his nuts clean so he doesn't have to wash 'em.
