In case you haven’t heard, Candace Williams has filed a restraining order against Ravens’ linebacker Terrell Suggs. And normally I don’t do this, but since this photo of Suggs and Williams seem to be of happier times, here you go. Interestingly enough, the H/T on these photos goes to the Sun’s Ravens Insider blog. I [...]
The Sun has put together a list of the top ten football players in Baltimore history. And aside from the glaring omission of Matt Stover, I have no problem with it. What do you think? 1. John Unitas: The greatest quarterback to play the game. Father of the two-minute drill led the Colts to two [...]
I have to say, this is the first instance I’ve come across where a collegiate athlete is taking it to his campus newspaper via Twitter. I am so glad that athletes on my campus were too busy trying to bag chicks on BlackPlanet instead of airing me out on social network platforms. A.J. Francis, I [...]
First he loved the attention. Now he hates it. For those media fools who have tried to make Gilbert Arenas out to be more than a funny valentine for quotes and sound bytes, the best advice is to love him and leave him alone. We all embraced the hot shooting, wildly honest point guard who [...]

Courtesy of the DC Sports Bog, here’s a national perspective on local lunacy; Daniel Snyder’s censorship of fan signage at Fed Ex Field. I have to admit, given their propensity for candor and honesty, I’m really surprised that Chris Cooley, Clinton Portis or DeAngelo Hall has made no mention about this story to media. They [...]

Seems like several D.C. area sports stars are becoming fed up with the media, which is good, because New York teams are doing relatively well and its about time another major market took up the mantle of journos on the attack. First it was a lethargic Gil, and now, Mike Sellers is just trying to [...]
