My, how the tables have turned. The once proud Baltimore Ravens have fallen so far from grace. First they had one of the worst seasons in their team’s history and they’re now under investigation for violating league rules. This seriously does my heart joy.

Evaluating roster chances of every Patriots draft pick

We all know the Ravens are a bunch of nasty and dirty players but that’s not why we’re here. We’re here because they got busted for using full pads when they weren’t supposed to, for at least the second time. The NFL believes that the Ravens knowingly had several practices where they were wearing full pads, which isn’t allowed right now. They got busted for the exact same thing in 2010.

I live in Baltimore, and all I hear is ‘Oh they were only wearing them for 5 minutes then they were told they can’t have them so they took them off’. Well 1) apparently the league doesn’t think that and 2) doesn’t matter, if Brady ‘probably’ knew about 1 PSI being out of a ball warrants the loss of a 1st round pick AND a 4 game suspension, then the Ravens should be docked a 1st or something as well. I love how people in Baltimore try to sweep this under the rug, and justify it by saying it was a mistake, yet they go out of their way to tell me Brady is a cheater. Hmmm, well I think the shoe is on the other foot now. So, since this is turning into a repeat offense, how about we suspend Harbaugh for a season, so he can cry from his house.

Here are all 61 colleges represented on Patriots roster

I absolutely find this beautiful. This is karma in full effect. The Ravens should have been fined for lying during the Deflategate conspiracy anyway. They told the NFL they never told the Colts about looking out for the Patriots’ balls, yet in an email, there was a string of communication between the 2 teams on just that subject. They lied to the NFL and got caught, but nothing happened. Now if this was the Patriots using pads when they weren’t supposed to, Belichick probably would have been suspended and we might as well have our entire draft taken from us.

There better be some hard fines and/or suspensions coming Baltimore’s way. This wasn’t a mistake, and the league doesn’t think it was either. They better come down as hard on the Ravens as they did on the Patriots. Don’t go pointing the finger Harbaugh, you got 3 pointing right back at your crybaby, complaining, everyone-is-out-to-get-us-self.
