I've seen some despicable actions from Ravens fans this week. I seriously couldn't hate a ball-club more than I do Baltimore. This fucking SEALS it! ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkKgGhn6PDE) LETS GO PATS!!!!!!

Most people here think that tool did that purposely for it to go youtube viral. Feel sorry for that guy's kid. He'll have to live with watching his dad act like a twink for life.

All fan bases have their crosses to bear though don't we?

So be insensitive and post pics of fat fans, nice, lol. We all have our idiot fanbase and the dude we aren't proud of (I admit, I get heated during gametime), but many Ravens fans are coming out of the woodwork with straight hatred in their bloods and twists their dagger the wrong way. Those two videos posted aren't good examples Dancing vs screaming your lungs out acting like a retard-child in front of your kids in not even a Championship or Super Bowl moment. You can't deny the Ravens fanbase are ruthless dogshit. Most of my friends from other teams fans who got the pleasure of being in the stands in Baltimore say they rival Tennessee fans in being vicious, clueless assholes who torment the shit out of you. Nevermind, maybe I'm just hatin or mad because my team fuckin blew their tampon straight out their vaginas this season On a serious note, hoping it's a good game. Good luck to both teams! GO PATS.

Dude one of your fanbase spit on my wife at Heinz Field once. All we were doing was crossing one of the steel bridges back to the hotel. Her sin was having a Ravens cap on. Very uncomfortable walk. Try sitting in your own stadium just once with a Ravens jersey on and then look in the mirror. And I'm I'm not going to tell you it's any better for Steelers fans in Baltimore. It's all the same, only the names will change.

Actually I found the fans in Nashville to be the nicest I've ever encountered, next to San Diego of course.

I've heard nothing but nasty things come out of Tennessee. I guess it's just who you are and who you encounter & what team you represent. I've been to more than you can count Ravens/Steelers games, including the AFC Title game in '08 and the parking lots were always civil and many Steelers/Ravens fans tailgating together, cooking together, playing beer pong, etc. I had a whole row of Ravens fans behind me numerous times and it's a fun time. I've been going to Steelers games since I was 7 and I never encountered the Steelers fanbase to be put fans through anything. Spitting on someone for having a hat on is downright juvenile and that dude should of been put behind bars. Hell, there's plenty of Steelers-haters in the Pittsburgh area and they have a ball downtown. Shame you experiened that, Ed.

Cleveland, if they could get away with it, would seriously gun-down Steelers fans. I went there in 2010 week 17 and they were just fucking ready to murder us. Like I said, I always compare to Heinz because I've been to a million home games and right away you could feel the intense atmosphere and jeers. Heinz Field is pretty calm when it comes to kickin' it. Too bad for them it was 80-20 Steelers fans though and 100% Steelers after the second quarter, haha. I had some buddies go to Baltimore and weren't fans of either team, just wearing their teams uniforms and they said Baltimore fans should of be fried, haha. I'd like to take a trip to Balty, would be a cool experience.

As for the coolest fanbase, that goes to Cowboys fans. They were kind of too nice, haha. I think they just respected the Steelers because Terrible Towels dominated the stadium but they were very polite. No one bit of hostility. Course I wanted to slam somebody if I heard "HOW BOUT THEM COWWWBOYSS!!!" screamed in my face fresh off the loss. Some dude came up to me, shook my hand and said "Jerry Jones sends his apologies." Then I hated them again, lol.

If you ever take a trip to Baltimore you can tailgate with me. Great lot across the street from the stadium.

This was my experience in Nashville on 2nd Ave before a playoff game in 2009

No Titans fans around.

We learned how to travel from the Steelers fans. It never used to be like that for us in the early days of the franchise.

[YoungJRNY]

That's cool, I always loved stuff like that and seeing your fav team represent in away stadiums. Baltimore's not too shabby in representing. When you go to a Steelers game, you'd be lucky to see a patch of away colors, if that. Over the past couple years you're seeing more and more Ravens fans in Heinz. Nothing major but compared to what it use to be, you def. see more.

I don't think there will be many Niner's jerseys in the Atlanta crowd. Especially since they used to be division rivals.

The Arritsburgh Stardinals have hired Bruce Arians as next head coach. 4 year deal.

Critical article on Ray Lewis. Ed will love this

For the record, I think the guy who wrote the article is pretty spot on with his assessment. At no point is he questioning Lewis' greatness as a football player.

[YoungJRNY]

I'm only a few paragraphs into the article and the dudes thoughts seem to be sucking out of my mind, haha. Now having read it all, that was probably the best article I've read in awhile with realism involved and not just football players and numbers concerning this subject. I have so many opinions on it that if a tree falls in a forest, maybe it isn't heard, haha.

I like this quote: Maybe I'm wrong, maybe CBS or NFL Network or ESPN will devote 20 minutes to the Baker and Lollar familes and their search for justice on Sunday.

The Baker and Lollar families? Baker and Lollar were 2 thugs that apparently got what they deserved, but are treated like 2 saintly innocent bystanders.

That case is 13 years old. If Ray Lewis were truly a bad guy, he would have been in trouble more than a few times over the last decade +. I'm actually more cynical than the writer. I DON'T believe people can change. Bad guys can't help themselves and trouble will find them over and over again.

Old news.

Falcons over '9ers by 6

New England VS Atlanta in New Orleans.

Total reverse on both picks. But what the hell do I know.

[AR]

Bored with Boston and Brady. They have had enough fun. It would mean a lot if my hometown team can pull it off. That's why they play the games though.

Welcome to "Shootout Sunday". I would be STUNNED if either of these games were low-scoring games, and wouldn't be remotely surprised if we see more points scored this weekend than we've ever seen scored on a championship weekend. The only team out of this group that really has a stout defense is the 49'ers, and they've shown that they can be thrown all over in some games. The Ravens are know as a defensive juggernaut, when the reality is that their defense isn't really that good any longer. I'm not a Flacco fan and think the guy is a complete douche of a human being. If the Ravens win today (and they have a great shot), I'll be rooting for whatever team plays against them in the Super Bowl. That said, Flacco has played well, and I suspect that this game will come down to him making big plays. The fact that the so-called "experts" have the Patriots favored by ten points is just plain fucking STUPID. The last three times these teams have played each other, it has been decided by a total of 7 points (in three freakin' games).

Atlanta versus San Francisco - I haven't been an Atlanta guy all season long (although I did pick them to beat Seattle last week), and I'm not going to start now. Atlanta has some very good, offensive players on their team. If Kaepernick plays like he did last week, NOBODY is beating this team and they'll be on their way to winning it all. San Francisco by two TD's.
New England versus Baltimore - I've had a bad feeling about this game all week long. Baltimore is a tough, physical team playing with a ton of emotion right now. The Patriots should absolutely win this game, as they're simply a better team. Baltimore isn't as good as they were last season, and the Patriots are better than they were last season. This is the NFL, and often, the best team doesn't win. Patriots by 3.

[Memorex]

My gut tells me that it's both the Niners and New England by 10 to 14 points in each game. I think there will be some separation here. But there are so many factors here, I'm certainly not 100% confident.

[YoungJRNY]

Falcons 27-24
Patriots 24-14

[Memorex]

I'm so pumped. I sure hope the 9ers get last year's championship game off their back. They need mistake free ball today.

I used to be a fan of Atlanta for many years and then it sort of faded. I don't ever really see them. They don't get much play in my market. Shockingly, up here in MN we got 6 nationally televised regular season Niner night games and about 4 other day games. I think maybe I saw one or two Atlanta games all season. They may have been on more, not sure.

You can't escape the Patriots. Baltimore got some good play up here as well.

[Memorex]

Too bad Crabtree isn't on the Defense. He could get all "handsy".

He better not be distracted today!

gonna be fun to watch..

I'd really like to Niners to add their sixth logo as you have there for the Steelers. And then let's play for 7 next year!

[AR]

Enjoy the games today. I'm taking 24 hours away from the computer win or lose so I can digest everything. Made a pact with some Patriots fan friends on facebook so we don't say anything rash that we might regret later.

I just hope the outcome is clear cut and kept out of the zebras hands. Other than that may the best team win.

I wouldn't mind the Steelers going for the sweep of the now residential NFC WEST. They've beaten the Rams, Seahawks & Cardinals in Super Bowls. Only fitting to beat San Fran for an unprecedented 7th title trophy in Steelers history.

In all seriousness, good luck to everyone's' teams who are still in the hunt today. Though my Steelers are at home picking their grundles, I will never forget the electricity through my body when they advanced to Super Bowl XXX (even though I was only 7 years old, I was VERY much alive, haha), XL, XLIII & XLV. Truly something EVERY fanbase should experience just one time in their life and I'm hoping those here, whoever it may be, sulks in every form of satisfaction their favorite team could bring them. Good luck John, Ed, Memorex and whoever else that's on pins and needles today. May the best team on this certain day, win.

Well said, Ed. Good luck to your team today (just not too much). Here is hoping for great games today. If my team loses, I won't be devastated. It's a privilege just to be able to watch your team get this far. I respect Harbaugh, a lot and I've always respected how tough the Ravens are as a team.

Yea A big reason I'd like a win today is for my boys. would be their first chance to see their team in the bowl.

[YoungJRNY]

Good for you, man. I hope they can pull it out for you (even though I've been pimpin the Falcons the past 3 years) for the enjoyment of your boys' sake. In 2005, my family and I made the trip to Detroit for Super Bowl XL (not to the game, just to be in the atmosphere.) My dad literally lived the Super Bowls in the 70's, sat through the tough times beforehand and his first game had him witness the Immaculate Reception. When the Steelers beat the Seahawks, he turned to me and said "My life is near complete. My boys just saw the Steelers win the Super Bowl for THEIR first time. Congratulations." One of my favorite moments I hope you could share with your kids. I'm getting too sentimental. Fuck Flacco & Fuck Brady too (lol)! Good luck, men.

Would be cool to get another photo op like I did the last time.
