A bench-clearing brawl at Ravens' mini-camp shows that the days of Camp Cupcake are over. Said new coach John Harbaugh "Guys are competing, so tempers flare a little bit."
According to the article, "Nearly all 85 players in camp were involved in a squabble Saturday that began when offensive tackle Oniel Cousins and defensive tackle Amon Gordon threw punches after running back Allen Patrick was taken down hard on a burst up the middle. All the players surged toward the middle of the field, and it was nearly two minutes before peace was restored."
It's good to see some intensity after years of yawning on the sidelines under Billick, but hopefully, everyone will heed Trevor Pryce's advice.
Pryce said, "If we can get all this out of the way now, scrapping and being undisciplined and 80 men jumping in a pile together, fine. So now we've proved I'm tough, you're tough, hooray, we're all tough. Are we a good football team? What's more important, proving you're tough or proving we're a good football team? That's how I look at it."
