my humble orange.

This might sound like I have sour grapes… (one final post about the 9/11 game)

But seriously, Ravens fans? How classy can you get? You finally get one (ONE. Not twenty, not ten, but one.) win against Roethlishberger and the Steelers during the opening game and you act like you just won the freaking Super Bowl against us. Or beat us out for number of titles. Take your pick; they’re equally impossible right now for a number of reasons.

(As a side note, I know many Packers fans who handled their win at the most recent Super Bowl more gracefully than you have in the past day or so.)

It is never appropriate to put a noose around anything, stuffed toy or what have you, that resembles the likeness of a person, even if that person’s track record isn’t exactly stellar. Nor is it appropriate to go rubbing your win in another team’s face (though, I’ve learned by now that that goes for anyone, us included). Rubbing your lone win in our faces just makes you look unsportsmanlike and trashy.

TL;DR- Ravens fans should stop being trashy and accept their early season win with grace. See you in November!
