It would be nice to see Ray Lewis get another ring though, since he beat the Broncos.


Tony Gonzalez is the best Tight end to ever play behind Shannon Sharpe in my opinion, but i just do not believe that the Falcons deserve it. They are probably the worst 13-3+ team I've ever seen. The Ravens have fought injuries all year and since Ray Lewis is retiring, after spending so many seasons with the Ravens, unlike Gonzalez with the Falcons, therefore I'd rather see Ray get the Super-bowl ring,

Remember when Ray Lewis was arrested for murder?

The more hes painted as some role model that young athletes should emulate, the more I think about that incident that everyone seems to have swept under the rug.

Please show me where in my post i said that he was a role model to young athletes. I said that he deserves it, because he does, not that he was such an amazing role model. Also I am not going to bring up an incident from 13 years ago because it is simply not worth it in my eyes. What possessed you to say that exactly? (I ask because i felt it wasn't needed to be mentioned).

Its the first thing I think of when people mention Ray Lewis in general, particularly when they talk about wanting to see him succeed.

I think you got the impression that I was attacking your opinion, which i didnt mean to. The comment wasnt directed toward you as much as it was the general opinion of Ray Lewis.

I just wish people would stop talking about how hes fought through so much and deserves so much respect. 13 years ago or 50 years ago, its not something Im likely to forget. Ray Lewis was a part of the reason that man died. How much of a reason, we dont know, but he never answered for those crimes and now all of a sudden hes a retiring hero that I should cheer for? Not happening.

THis is a bad question to ask. Ray lewis is in his late 30's. He is still so strong though. Do you think he is taking steroids.

The murder charges were dropped when he took a plea bargain and testified against 2 of his buddies.

Yeah selling out 2 nobodies for him stabbing a guy with a beer bottle. Further reason to cheer for him.....

He also already has a ring and an MVP distinction from Super Bowl.

You frustrate me so much, while reading your posts... Why on earth when someone is strong do you immediately think he is taking steroids? There are guys in their 40's that are still strong and muscular, and I assure you that many of them do not take steroids. Also It's Manti... not Menti. If they were really your favorite team you would know that.

Agreed.

The fact that he weaseled his way out of jail time by selling out his buddies does not change my opinion of the situation in the slightest.

Plea bargains do not indicate innocence. In fact, for him to take a plea bargain, there must have been a legitimate chance that going to trial would have been bad for him. So the plea bargain hurts my opinion of the man more than it helps him.
