He probably got a migraine from listening to Billick bitch at him.

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
My understanding is that Ward was going to be cut anyway and had drawn Billick's ire repeatedly. This does guarantee his salary for the season in 17 game check increments. I doubt he will be back next season. It's really not a big deal. It also means Jamaine Winborne just made the team in all likelihood barring a major need or injury at another position arising in the next few days.

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
I think Jermaine Winborne won his spot in the last 2 games making a couple of heads-up plays. If Aaron is right about BJ Ward and his attitude and drawing Billick's ire, then we don't need him here.

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
Why bother to IR someone who you don't want on the team in the future? Seems like a waste of Steve B.'s money to me.

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
This smells of a "Pashos' hand IR" scenario...
They just don't think he is ready, and don't wnat to waste a spot on him. Look for him to really fight for the spot next to Ed Reed next year.

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
according to Aaron's notes, I guess it's not that, but still, you wonder why they'd IR him rather than just straight out cutting him...
Good news about Jamaine Winborne though, that kid is AWESOME..

Re: Ward, Cherry to IR
*14-year flashback*
Matt Cherry was IR'd out of Ravens existence only to resurface at the Oscar's last night. Strange world.
Odd to see Aaron Wilson once posted here and weird to see the discussion of Billick.
Not at all odd to see that Mike Preston was stirring up some shit by implying Billick had personal reasons for getting rid of BJ Ward.
