Respect from a Ravens Fan

All of the players. All of the management. You even took the draft picks we earned to take Ogden and Lewis, your two Hall of Famers.
Blood on your hands.

Actually Z.....Bill Belichick and his coaching staff didn't go to Baltimore. And the only real management guy that went there was Kevin Byrne, Modell's paid mouthpiece. (actually, I think he is still there). Though, maybe if you include Ozzie that was the best asset they took. He was responsible for the choice of Ogden and Lewis.

Gip, obviously I know the idiot fired Belichick.

Again, we didn't take ALL of the management.
You can be bitter about it all you want, but to just flat out rude to us because we root for that team isn't necessary.

Is there a way to word it perfectly so that you can sleep better?
Modell moved everything he could, and Baltimore welcomed every bit of it with open arms.
It's not "necessary" I be rude, maybe I'm just tired of giving you dumbfucks history lessons every time you step in here. You make those idiot Pittsburgh towel wavers look like Mensa candidates.

"Ya I feel guilty that Dad stole everything that guy had, but we really enjoyed the stuff. And after three years of being out of business and 15 years of struggling, that guy is doing alright now, so no harm done."
That's not a good analogy as my relationship to the Maryland officials wasn't close to a father/son relationship and we didn't steal everything, we left the name and history, and no one is saying "no harm done" rather "Wasn't my fault, I feel bad but it's 20 years later and now the Browns are starting to come back into being competitive. It's actually a big compliment because the Browns and the city of Cleveland have overcome much adversity to make it this far.
It is never going to be right. So as long as you enjoy that team, if you step in here you're going to hear about it.
It could be worse, we could be giving you a hard time for Ray Lewis whisking away the killers in a double homocide and then lying about it ... or Ray Rice cold cocking his wife in an elevator and then dragging her motionless body long enough to qualify for his longest carry of the year ... but we're not, I'm just bringing up two things you need to come to terms with:
1. Your city stole our team and you derive pleasure from it.
2. We bitchslapped your asses last year with Campbell at QB, so don't come in here and tell us we aren't an easy win anymore.
Zombo
He didn't specify just this year you guys stopped being an easy win you just grabbed that out of no where.
I agree with 1. You need to come to terms with this:
I, the person talking to you, had nothing to do with what happened to the Browns. I'm sorry it happened, but was I supposed to not be happy we finally got a team after we lost ours and our history and namesake many years previously? And after we'd lost hope we'd ever get a team because of the asshole Redskins owner who didn't want competition made sure we were passed over for any expansion, we finally had a team again. It happened at Cleveland's expense but it worked out better than any other team leaving a city in the entire history of the NFL. You lost that current team but not the actual Browns.

You didn't leave anything. Cleveland Browns fans DEMANDED that the names, history and colors stay, you didn't have a choice in the matter. They could have been the Baltimore Browns and you fuckers would have rooted for them.

It "worked out better" because, after we were blindsided we worked hard to restore what was ours. It doesn't change the fact you, the person I am talking to, is a dirty whore for rooting for them.

ravens509, you'll just have to get used to it if you insist on coming here. Like Z said, 3 years out of business and 15 years of struggling (of which this year, finally, it appears we have started to get back on our feet). Your fans reaped the benefits at our fans expense. If we are finally turning the corner, that's 18 years. Some have gotten over it, some never will. I say in turn they should be given at least the next 18 years of showing bitterness and resentment towards you and your fans.
Or eff it...let them hate you forever. Like you said, some Baltimore fans won't even call them the Indy Colts. And it's been what...30 years now?

You guys just keep shitting and eating it and shitting it back out and eating it and so on and so fourth. I feel like I'm trapped in another Stockton vs. the board argument loop. It's all been said, changing the way you say it isn't adding anything to the thread.

It is a very small amount that haven't moved on from the Colts. And even those who haven't moved on, manage to treat the fans that come onto our board with the dignity and respect that all human beings deserve. It's just football, and to give someone a hard time just because of what team they like (beyond the normal all in good fun kind of riding of one another). it's just not necessary and deludes the quality of online talk forums where the focus should really be on the football.
Not naïve enough as to expect no animosity from Cleveland, but there's a difference between showing disdain for another's team and the actions of the team and then taking it personally and attacking the person themself.

Ravens need to take a hint and not draft anymore players named Ray...Lol
And Ravens fans need to take a hint and understand:
#1) They are Cleveland fans rivals, therefore many of us dont WANT to be civil or talk football with you. That will never change(hint hint)
#2) We dont care about Indy fans or how they interact with Baltimore fans. Just because Baltimore rolled over and took it in the ass, doesn't mean we're willing to do the same. The reason we still have our colors is ONLY because BROWNS fans weren't taking it and stepped up
#3) We aren't gonna kiss and be friends just because some time has passed. The Ravens(and their fans) can kiss my ass. And I sure as hell wouldn't go to a steelers board and act all girlish because they dont like me. I would expect them to not like me. Thats how it goes.
#4) Finally, If you come here as a "rep" for Baltimore and the Ravens(and you do), then dont try to separate yourself from them. Accept your team for what it is. Stolen from Cleveland. And accept that people in Cleveland still feel the sting. And accept that YOU choose to represent that team here. So, take it or leave. But dont act as if we dont have the right, in our own house, to be angry about it. Or direct our anger toward Ravens fans who like to hang at Browns boards and want us to act as if we're long lost friends.

1. There's a difference between being friends and having basic respect for one another
2. Baltimore did not roll over and take it in the ass, rather the team was rather surprisingly moved in the middle of the night and Baltimore wasn't given much of a chance to fight for anything. It was a different time.
3. It's just a game.

Shit guys. We all hate the ravens. I call still call them the purple browns. Took the team away. Baltimore had the colts taken away. Its like being mad at the guy who fucked your girlfriend after meeting

Raven fan
We all get it, the Grinch came and stole all your shit, and almost all our shit. So we don't like you and you don't like us, and we both hate the Grinch, and everybody hates the Steelers. We have a game coming up against you guys and that's all that matters. By the way, I hope we kick your asses all the way back to Baltimore.
GO BROWNS!

Drunken rant rave time. Thank you Mike.
Ravens guy, stop being so damn cordial. If you're gonna be here, play a proper villain.
Look at all the other team villains here.They have thick skin, and know when to turn it on, and know when to pull off, and learn to find the little bit of common ground there is. It IS just the game of football, a game of ground control, Major Tom!
And it IS all in good fun, but you're dealing with a fan base that mirrors its city.
I believe you had a rather rough winter down there in MD last year? That's every winter in Cleveland.
Toughen up buttercup.

That's fair enough. When I go to the ravens board I don't troll them because unlike many my hate of Baltimore flamed out. I still troll bungles fans.

Cysko...if you've been on the official ravens board, you can understand my shell shock from how things are run there vs how people relate on here. Bit of an adjustment.

This board is the shit though that's how we roll in Cleveland. And yeah I have an account on the official ravens message board. (For what it's worth I have accounts on forums for about half the leagues teams). If you say 'ass' on that board it autocorrects to 'butt' so...
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

Yeah, they are literally the antithesis of this board. Too many rules. I got warning points for calling someone a smartass...

As far as the ravens go I like them way more than anyone else in the division but they won't be cracking my top ten anytime soon. It's not because of the 95 move and I was 15 at that time so I remember it quite clearly. It's because they're divisional rivals and they stand in our way. So I am cordial to ravens fans but come week 17
-
Shit you can't even get fuckin' banned here basically for anything but directly pissing off a mod. This one guy had to troll the shit out of the board for like twenty years to get banned.

That's right! This board rules. And you are in prime position to be our favorite Ravens fan, but you gotta take the reins man.
Adapt. Say the Ravens are gonna kick our ass. Call my mama a ho. Something.
You are triple digit posts in man. Go for it.
