The Band That Wouldn't Die

[eclectica1]

I guess I must be one of the only people out there who DOESN'T blame Irsay for what he did. The city of Baltimore tried to screw him and the team over (eminent domain, anyone?), and he only did what he felt was right. It was only after they left that those in governance changed their policies.

[AutoRacer5]

@eclectica1 What about Irsay trying for almost a decade to move the team out of the city? Hell he even cost the team the chance to have John Elway as their QB.

[eclectica1]

@AutoRacer5 He only tried to engineer a move because he wasn't getting any support from the city of Baltimore with regards to getting the stadium renovated. You could argue that they were both as bad as each other. All I'm saying is that there has been a lot of criticism towards Irsay, when there should be some in the other direction as well.

did they ever play at oakland?

[spidabudutut]

Baltimore couldn't get their own team, they had to steal it.

[burlas00]

@spidabudutut At least we didnt keep their name and their hall of famers like the Colts did. Get outta here with this. If the Colts were never allowed to leave, we wouldn't have had to. Hate game, not the players.

[MrJacksonvs]

@spidabudutut we wanted one of the expansion teams but we were denied because the asshole owner of the Deadskins didnt want us to steal his market. Which kinda sucks considering Baltimore has a much stronger fanbase than both Jacksonville and Carolina combined ( (no offense to anyone who's a fan of those teams) ). If we were given one those teams so much could have been avoided. Sorry if your Cleveland fan.

[svrhodes77]

@MrJacksonvs...kinda how the asshole owner of the Baltimore Orioles tried for years and years to keep a MLB team out of Washington DC. Not saying it was right, but it was very similar.

[MrJacksonvs]

@svrhodes77 Lol dude even people here in Baltimore hate Peter Angelos. He's the Mike brown of MLB owners.

[Airsoftcleaner]

@MrJacksonvs What do you mean "Sorry For Cleveland Fans????" They Got a Much Sweeter Deal Than Baltimore Got and they got to keep The Browns Colors and Team Name and They did not have to wait 12 Goddamn Years for The NFL to come back to Cleveland.

For anyone who's in a marching band, this is HIGHLY recommended.

[jkoff76]

I love the look on the football players face and it seems like he just mumbles, "what the fuck???" When the Canadian anthem is playing. ROFL

[redskins1111]

You know there are more Washington Redskins fans in Maryland; damn Baltimore controlling our state. Don't represent us down here in rural southern Maryland. Brian Frosh is an ass as well damn Montgomery County asshole.

[MikeJustDidit]

[MikeJustDidit]

[rmonman]

[ToolOfTrade]
