Re: POS McKinnie
I completely get your disdain for McKinney. I was just as pissed as anyone when he could not get on the field during the regular season. However, you cannot say with a straight face, that he did not play well during the PO and SB run. Certainly better than Oher. For that much he gets credit.
And yes, we were all spoiled with JO, but players like him don't come along that often."I don't know a man on this Earth who can outwork me". Ray Lewis

Re: POS McKinnie
He definitely seemed fresh after his 15-game respite. As was pointed out earlier in the thread...Osemele's play at LG was a much bigger reason for the improved play of the OL. You can bash Oher for his play at LT (and I totally get that), but you also have to take into account that Oher didn't have the luxury of Osemele lining up next to him. Instead, he played next to a rotation of misfits. Also...Oher played just as well at RT as McKinnie did at LT during the playoff run. People also seem to forget that McKinnie was used and abused the entire 2nd half of the Super Bowl.

Re: POS McKinnie
I'm not sure what your argument is here. It is well known that our best O line in the past few years was McKinney (LT), KO (LG), Birk (C), Yanda (RG), and Oher (RT). There's no debate about that. That was the O line that we took into the 2012 playoffs, and they performed very well. Is McKinney a turd? Yes, but he was part of the best O line we've put on the field over the past few years. Albeit for only 4 games.

Re: POS McKinnie
When McKinnie played to his talent level he was a good player. But his addiction to chicken, beer, and blowing racks at girls who were busy shaming their family names was/is his weakness.

Re: POS McKinnie
Mckinnie just like's to spend his money on some white trash stripper Ho's, no big deal. At least he doesn't punch them out in a elevator.

Re: POS McKinnie
I think that this is why there is such a big wealth gap in this country, has always been throughout human civilization, and will be as long as the government doesn't turn us all into peasants living in a third world country. Some people and some cultures can't hang out for a dollar long than a few days. You give them everything and they'll waste on and self-destruct. You give people who were born into the money some more and they save it, and try to make even more with it. Then later when the first person is broke, and the second person is living comfortably, the 99%ers complain about how the responsible guy is destroying the country.

Re: POS McKinnie
My "argument" is that I don't ever see any threads / posts giving credit to any of the other members of the OL for the Ravens' Super Bowl run. You do see them with McKinnie like he was some sort of hero that came to the rescue riding a ginormous horse. It's like people completely forget that he really put the team in a bad position and actually almost cost them making the playoffs to begin with.
