    OJ Brigance

    I'm sure you all watched OJ hand the Lamar Hunt trophy to the Ravens. I listened to him speak through his computer with my arm around my Dad, who also has ALS. the media will hype it that the Ravens are making this run for Ray or Art or Reed, etc. But, believe you me, OJ is the inspiration behind this team and he is the guy they are going to battle for.

    God Bless you OJ Brigance!

    Thanks guys. My father cried tears of joy. OJ actually wrote my dad a letter and they have been keeping in touch. He is a true inspiration.

    God Bless your father and OJ! I'm so glad they got the win for OJ. The whole team loves him.

    ALS is a terrible disease. One of my friend's mom has it.

    I'm glad OJ got to witness Ray's last dance, going all the way BACK to the Super Bowl. Guy made the first tackle in SB 35.

    Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

    b-hawk-
    I choked up more than a bit when they did the locker room thing with OJ.

    And may you and Pops have many more wonderful times together.

    Yeah Hawk, I'll second that. I'm glad you got to enjoy this victory with your Dad tonight.

    OJ played on two championship teams in our town and I have to agree with you that he is the inspiration for number three coming up.

    The series of post game speeches by Mr. Brigance, Mr. Bisciotti, Coach Harbaugh and Ray Lewis tonight said it all imho.

    As OJ said "Through God all things are possible".
    Twenty years of Cheers.
    Thanks Baltimore Ravens Fans - You're the Best!

    DAMN THAT DISEASE A.L.S. !!! I knew someone who died from A.L.S. and it is horrible...Although she lived over 5 years with it, it wasn't a good living..Her son wound up committing suicide a few months afterward and it just wrecked her family... I hate A.L.S. and I feel for you ballhawk and your fam and for O.J. and his family! DAMN THAT DISEASE A.L.S.
