Art Modell RIP
According to WNST, from Jim Donovan in Cleveland
WNST @WNST
#Cleveland TV reporter Jim Donovan reporting former #Ravens owner Art #Modell gravely ill in #Baltimore hospital. More as we know....
.
“When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That’s the Baltimore Raven way.” - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

Re: Art Modell Gravely Ill...
The Cleveland reactions have been...as expected. Seen one tweet drawing a parallel between him and Hitler. Classy.
Doesn't look good, reports say that condition is worsening and his sons have flown in to be at his side..

Re: Art Modell Gravely Ill...
Glad to have gotten Art one championship, more than some owners can say. If this is it for him, he can at least go knowing that he left his organization in great hands.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Modell family. Mr. Modell has brought my family many days and years of enjoyment with the Ravens. I will forever be thankful for Mr. Modell having the courage to bring the team that became the Ravens to Maryland.

Art Modell is a hero to this city for bringing back championship football.
The joy Mr. Modell has given me and my family is without equal.
If anyone reading this knows where I could send a letter affirming as much and expressing my thanks and well wishes so that it actually reaches someone in the Modell family, I would be grateful for a pm.My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. -Hank Aaron

For anybody else wanting to send a note, he's @ Johns Hopkins, ICU. It may be too late for Art but perhaps his family would get some comfort hearing from us that think so highly of Mr. Modell.

Those Cleveland Browns fans are idiots and disgraceful, they need to realize that there was a good reason for the move back in 95, unlike what happened to Baltimore.
