Hines86 Article and Ward's Quotes about the Ravens

There was an error when I tried making this a FanShot, so I decided to make it a post because it is that good. . . .

Great PG article about my favorite player. Some of Hines' quotes about the 13-9 win in Baltimore are great:

About Baltimore in general:

"I love beating them while [their fans] are flicking me off."

Leading up to the game winning 92 yd drive:

"I told 'em both [Ed Reed and Ray Lewis] that we were about to score and beat 'em in their own back yard"

Best quote, referring to Ward's biggest regret from the game, when he wasn't able to finish a LEGAL HIT on Bart Scott because the LB ducked:

"They put a bounty on me and then he ducks," Ward said, shrugging.

"He saw Hines coming and he was scared!" Holmes crowed from two lockers down.

I'm sure I have 75 words already, but I feel obligated to write something here anyways because everyone else does it.

Just in case you wanted one more article from a major sports institution reiterating how much we all kick ass. . .

Madden's Screw Up

The IC Lion — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 12:07:15 -0000

I'm not a John Madden basher like many other people out there, but I kept wondering why he was refering to Big Ben's injury as a "separated shoulder" during the broadcast on Sunday despite never hearing that term throughout the week. Did Madden have inside info, or was he just being stupid? Well according to Tomlin, Madden's an idiot:

So that's all I have on this, but I had to add one more sentence to get up to 75 words.
