Bottom line is most longtime football fans still view the Ravens as the Cleveland Browns and don’t respect a large portion of the Baltimore football fan base. This is driven by a number of factors:
1. They complain about Indy stealing the Colts but have no problem with the fact that they stole the Browns.
2. They are blessed with a fantastic front office but don’t appreciate it at all. All we heard all season on local sports talk radio were fans calling for Flacco to be benched, for Ray Lewis to be placed on IR, for Ray Rice to be relegated to a 3rd down back all of which would have resulted in the team not even making the playoffs. (I.e. the one poster on this site who thinks Flacco doesn’t have the mental capacity to start in the NFL)
3. A very vocal portion of their fan base were or should have already been established fans of other teams prior to the Ravens arriving and have switched allegiances. Real sports fans get 1 team per sport no switching allowed. This primarily applies to fans born between approximately 1975 and 1988.
4. They’ve overly embraced Ray Lewis – I think Wes Welker’s wife said it all. Good football player certainly not someone to look up to though.
