    Did you know...?

    That Joe Flacco is the tallest QB to ever win a SB?

    I remember a discussion a while back and we were talking about how it seemed that there was a (completely arbitrary and nonsensical) correlation between a QB's height and SB success. At the time, Peyton hadn't won yet...so guys like Brady, Ben, Favre, Elway, Young, etc were shorter than 6'5".

    Stupid, I know.

    I don't know why that popped into my head, but it did.

    I thought Big Ben is 6'5" and that is who Flacco got compared to a lot when talking about tall QBs.

    Ok, I guess he is 6'5"...maybe this was a thread convo from the sunspot forums before he even won...

    He is actually like 6'6" and 7/8.

    So, when he first wakes up in the morning, he is probably ever bit of 6'7".

    Somehow I missed this, but did you know . . .

    . . . that the Ravens are the first team since the 1994-95 Dallas Cowboys to lose the conference championship game one year and come back and win the Super Bowl the next year?

    At least I think that's what I read somewhere.

    Actually at the combine he measured 6'6 and 7/8ths of inch tall. He's as close to 6'7 as you can get.

    I met him after his rookie year. He's a tall guy. Every bit of that

    Flacco is tall?:grbac:
    In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

    No. He's actually about 4'7". The towel boy is tall, however,and Flacco is wrongly being given credit for the towel boy.

    Flacco has never done anything to help the Ravens win anything.

    Typical. Arguing has started in this thread already about someones height.

    Isn't Eli pretty tall? 6'5?
