Ray Lewis announced a couple of weeks ago that this is his final NFL season and he’ll be retiring. Lewis once again made it clear that he doesn’t plan on coming back next season. “I never slowed down to really think about, ‘Oh, will you come back?’ Nah, I can’t come back,” Lewis said, per CSNBaltimore.com. “My kids are calling for Daddy. It’s a great reward to see the sacrifice my babies have made for me, and it’s time that I sacrifice for them.” I believe Lewis. I don’t think he has it in him to pull off the drama that Brett Favre did.

Boston Wants To Throw Ray Lewis A Party
More specifically, a retirement party. Everyone please meet in the conference room after the AFC Championship Game for refreshments and a farewell speech.

Dare I say this is “bulletin board material”? Can you fit a billboard...

I don’t think the game will be a blow out, the Ravens and Patriots always play close games. If the Ravens win this will be a lot of wasted money.

Lookin’ Good, Ravens Maniac
A man with the Twitter handle @RavenManiac is swept up with the fever that only the playoffs and Ray Lewis’ farewell to bionic arms can bring. With only a little hair dye, a clipper and some bath salts, you too can be a Ravens Maniac with a bird face for a skull.

Who do we like this weekend in the playoffs
Ok, so the Bengals are out. However, NFL football is still going on and like us, most of you will be watching.
Who do you root for?
Personally I am torn. Part of me wants to root for the Ravens. My reasoning is that they are a division opponent and whats good for the division is good for the Bengals. The Bengals will get to play them twice next season and it would be nice to beat...
