    Ravens waying the terrible towel

    Anyone else notice Ray Rice and another Raven waving a terrible towel as they left the stadiun thru the tunnel. How do we let um get away with that? The shoe bomber didn't, the titans did not. Not the Ratbirds...Lets turn this thing around. Man I hate seeing that!
    Anyone have our record vs Ravens since Tomlins been here. I know its 5-6 in regular season but what about playoffs?

    The other Raven was Torrey Smith...he then went on to insult the Steeler fans on twitter by posting the following...

    Are our fans disrespectful to the players when the Steelers come to town?? Not talking about words but throwing things...serious ?

    Umm Torrey...yes they are. Then again they are simply following the example set by their team & beloved defensive icon who behave like a bunch of showboating d!cks. You deliberately wave the towel after you did NOTHING to contribute to the win (that goes for Rice too) - expect to catch sh!t from the crowd.
    It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust & sweat & blood...

          Even if they weren't our division rivals, I would think they were thugs. Just listen to some of them when they talk. Repulsive!

                Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                  Woodley tweeted, “If youre not a Steelers fan, dont put your hands on a terrible towel.” He also cautioned, “Bad idea ray, just ask lendale white and tj whosyourmama.”

                    Rice using a Terrible Towel was a 'bad idea'Found 6 hours ago on Larry Brown Sports:
                    PLAYERS: LaMarr Woodley, Ray Rice, LenDale White, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Terrell Suggs, Ryan Clark
                    TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos

                    Ray Rice was spotted with a Terrible Towel draped over his head after the Baltimore Ravens defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night, and Pittsburgh linebacker LaMarr Woodley is not happy about it. Woodley apparently felt it was disrespectful of Rice, and he took to Twitter on Tuesday morning to warn him about it and remind everyone about two players who have done it in the past.


                    For those who are wondering, Around the League reminded us that Lendale White stomped on a Terrible Towel in 2008 while T.J. Houshmandzadeh used one to clean his cleats back in 2005. Woodley was still in college for the Housmandzadeh incident, but he is apparently well-read in Terrible Towel history. Both teams — White’s in 2008 and Houshmanzadeh’s in 2005 — tanked in the postseason and the Steelers went on to win the Super Bowl.


                    In this particular photo, Rice was simply walking to the locker room. Perhaps he needed a towel after a hard-fought game and that’s all that was available. However, he was waving it in the air for the fans to see on his way off the field after the game. It obviously rubbed Woodley the wrong way.


                    “If you’re not a Steelers fan, don’t put your hands on a terrible towel,” the sixth-year linebacker also wrote on Monday night.


                    As shirts like this one Terrell Suggs wore and comments like this one that Steelers safety Ryan Clark made remind us, there is no love lost between these two division rivals. Woodley’s tweet simply adds fuel to a fire that has been blazing for years.

                      Ravens "waying" the terrible towel?

                      Well, don't keep us in suspense...how much does a Terrible Towel weigh?

                        According to Woodley, it may weigh heavily on Ray Rice. We'll see.

                          Rice actually traded his gloves to a Steeler fan for the towel, and wants it to add to a collection he has of other teams stuff to remember the games. He actually had some nice things to say about the Steelers and the fans....

                            Have No problem with Ray Rice. If you notice when ever things got chippy. He was always kind of like the peacemaker saying . Hey it is football keep bringing it good job. Not a Ray Rice hater. Guy is a good player. I don't group him with Ray Ray ,and T sizzle. and now Ed Reed who is crying like for anyone to listen to him today. First I herd he got the towel in a trade. Pretty cool. Not sure I would have done it if I was fan but that was not to have bad intent.

                              ray rice is a flat out stud and seems to be one of the few quality guys (both in play and in character) on that team. i'm prepared to cut him some slack, but unfortunately myron was never so forgiving. even the right reasons don't make up for the fact that pic is a bad bad choice. the universe will now unfold as it should.....
