Listening to the Ravens radio guys being completely dejected every time the Pats make a play is pretty fucking great.
My favorite part - aside from the Harmon pick - is when the color guy, unable to shutter his not-so-quiet desperation in the face of the double-pass TD, frantically blurts out, "W-w-was it backwards?!" A little bit I want to make it my ring-tone.Ralphwiggum said:Listening to the Ravens radio guys being completely dejected every time the Pats make a play is pretty fucking great.

Edit: This video has more than they showed on Inside the NFL. Start at about 11:03 when Ngata starts talking to Suggs, then Harbaugh explains it.

Thanks for this. I actually gained some respect for Suggs watching this. Good leader.

Ravens announcers calling Steve Smith "Smith Sr." is fucking obnoxious.

It was interesting to see him talking to the ref about how no one poked Brady in the eye and "12 is always looking for that flag" and the ref said "oh I know".
And at 6:40 minutes in the ref is bragging to the Ravens that he called the flop and goes into the Ravens defensive huddle?Morning Woodhead said:I love Tom Brady unconditionally, but he does look for flags after every hit. I think he does it in the hopes that at some point in the game, they'll get a free 15 yards, but most opposing fans and players just assume he's soft and a pretty boy.
Of course in this instance, he has the spot on his eye to prove it.....

Right before that play Edelman was on the sideline alone and clearly said "Hey Flacco, throw us on... throw us one." Then he threw us one. At 7:45 or so on the link in post 384.Ralphwiggum said:Anyone have a link to any of the Edelman stuff? I missed Turning Point last night.
Did they include anything from after Flacco threw the pick to Harmon? You can clearly see Edelman running out on the field and yelling something in Flacco's direction.

He was genuinely shocked and pleasantly surprised when he heard before the game that Brady had been heaping praise on him. I imagine they have, uh, choice words during the games against each other, but like his boss, Brady has appreciation for great players and will gladly say so.
It's hard to respect Suggs as a person, given the bleach thing, but as a player and competitor, he's got a lot going for him.

That was just some random, run of the mill running play that happens 50 times a game. And if I were Bolden, I wouldn't be able to walk after a week after just one hit like that. This really shows you how violent the game is.
The play at 7:15 where Suggs makes a tackle and then, at the bottom of the pile, asks "was that necessary?"... classic.

At one point in the game, Brady and Suggs were seen jawing after a hit on Brady. Suggs was asked what the two men talked about:
“He was trying to tell me how to bag a Hollywood actress,” Suggs said via the Boston Herald. “He
said, ‘If you want to get a Hollywood actress, take my seminar on
Saturday.’ …He was going over the Dow and the economy and politics. He
doesn’t really talk football that much.”
Ralphwiggum said:For the record this thread was split out and I did not choose the thread title. Terrell Suggs is a piece of shit human being regardless of how he came across on Saturday night.
RedOctober3829 said:Suggs: "That defense is waiting for 12 to bail them out"
Then later in the game, he is calling for Flacco to bail his defense out.
Loved that too.
Suggs also said to the ref that Brady is coached up to try to bait the defense into penalties.
Maybe instead of getting after his own secondary he should focus on the fact that he didn't do much of anything.

I know Brady is pretty hard on himself and that was a terrible play, but holy shit he screamed like all his family had commited suicide in front of his very eyes. Dude's just crazy competitive.

Cousin's arrest
On August 14, 2014 Phoenix police arrested Jalani Dehnay "John" Suggs the cousin of Terrell Suggs, charging him with aggravated assault and kidnapping. Reports state that on August 13 Phoenix police were called to a hospital regarding a woman who was seeking medical treatment and said she had been held against her will. The woman told police that Suggs and another man attempted to persuade her to become involved in prostitution and when she refused, she was physically assaulted. The victim said she was held at Suggs' house. Sgt. Steve Martos said the suspects also took her vehicle without her consent and refused to return any of her personal property. The victim told police that she was placed in the trunk of a Maserati parked in Suggs' garage. When she was let out of the trunk, she was held in a bathroom and beaten by Suggs until she lost consciousness three separate times, according to Martos. Suggs ultimately took her to the hospital, dropped her off and drove away. Martos said Suggs is a cousin of NFL player Terrell Suggs.
Yeah, those guys are crazy. I don't enjoy when weekend warriors yell at the guys at the bottom of the lineup.reggiecleveland said:You ever play a sport? FUCK
Guys lose it like that in beer league every fucking weekend.
No. They just clearly want to make it known that the ref getting paid $50/game blew a call that had zero importance in the outcome of the game.TheStoryofYourRedRightAnkle said:And those guys aren't crazy?
Yeah that's less unsolicited when the person you're giving advice to doesn't adhere by it. You're taking that at face value with zero background knowledge of how Elam pretty much blows in coverage and presumably being able to tackle people out of bounds. To say Suggs is a shitty leader from that clip is basically you fitting an event into your narrative. Suggs is a shitty person but that's a complete nothing play/event in regards to your hatred of him.crystalline said:Yeah, those guys are crazy.

Brady has spent his whole adult working life dedicated to becoming the best football player possible. In my book he gets to be angry when he's not playing well.
Re: Suggs, that lecture he gave Elam was the height of eyerollable verbiage. Elam knew he missed the tackle and Suggs told him three times to tackle better. Great, man. Did he then tell the punter to punt better, the OL to block better and Flacco to throw better?
Maybe its just me, but guys who give that kind of useless unsolicited advice on a team quickly get tuned out. They're not leaders. Elam was trying to walk away. The only thing that made me think Suggs might be respected was the fact that Elam heard him out and didn't totally blow him off.

Yup.
Seriously, though, the mic'd up stuff is fantastic and I do admit that Suggs comes across different (better?) than I thought he would.
