Great words. Definitely inspirational and the right things to say out of context. In context he can tell them he's proud, they played hard, blah, blah, blah but all he does is enable a bunch of thugs.
**** Ray Lewis (although he isn't really a murderer, merely accessory to murder, legally the same but just thought I'd point out the difference.) No I'm not going to forget his past, and I'm not going to respect the fact that this speech was delivered to a team of classless punks.
That whole team of fake thug, whiny *****es always manage to come up small when it matters most. All this hype and speeches and barking is useless if you don't make the plays.
I'm sure the Pats are plenty inspirational to each other. They just don't save it for the cameras. I for one am glad that he doesn't have a chance for another ring (and I would have been rooting against this gutless excuse-making team regardless of whether they were playing the Pats or not).
Ray Lewis plays the game the way it ought to be played and brings it every game and every down. Maybe if he told his whiny teammates and coaches to suck it up I'd respect him more. But pumping up a bunch of thugs doesn't.
So in short, he manages to get his teammates to talk the talk but he doesn't get them to walk the walk.
BTW is Rex Ryan a product of the Ravens or is that Ravens D a product of Ryan? Because they're all just blowhards who choke when it matters.
