ragemdw Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Despite the fact that we've made the playoffs six of nine years, had two defensive players of the year, one offensive player of the year, won a Super Bowl, and drafted three Hall of Famers, sure, we have an inferiority complex toward the Washington Redskins. . . dont even start comparing franchises. Redskins = Historic Team Raven= Expansion Club...even though they moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planter Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 No. It's kinda hard to dislike the Ravens (except when they're playing the Skins) and Baltimore. You know, the blue collar work ethic, history, crab cakes, nice ball park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONTEY Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 We seem to be their version of the Cowturds. They're always ready to stomp and beat down our skins weather its preseason or regular. Just like tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKnowsBest Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 No. However Ravens fans seem to think there is. That's the only thing I hate... how Ravens fans try to taunt you for liking the Redskins. But other than that, there is no real rivalry and I actually like the Ravens as a football team in the AFC and in Baltimore. I'll take my Redskins over the Baltimore Browns every time though.

OriginalWhizzinator Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 yes, just b/c of the DC bangwagon'ers that jumped off the skins wagon in 2000 when bmore won a title. good riddance to those goons, and the proximity of the cities makes for a natural rivalry.

velocet Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 As far as Baltimore Professional Football goes, I've always had a strong 'like' going. It all comes down to their combined NFL Championship history: every time they've won it all, it was against a team for which I have extreme (football) hate... the giants. '58, '59 and '00. Sucks that the NY team even got that far, great they got smacked down once there though, and I'm appreciative of thems that done the deed on them. Well, when I moved to the Balt. area I found that there was nothing of a reciprocity in sentiment, no matter how derived. Folks claimed to HATE the Redskins. Naturally, I inquired as to why. A common explanation was that once the Colts left, Jack Kent Cooke singlehandedly systematically prevented any NFL presence in Charm City. When asked about some more plausible hates to have, like say for Irsay or some team in their division like the Steelers, Browns or Bengals, there was nothing coming, save blank stares. The sports radio there (1300, 105)... I mean, talk about being in someone's head. There was a snide local tard (can't remember his name, missing a leg or something) on the air who, when reading the final scores of games, would rejoice when reading off the news of another 'Skins loss (this was during "spurrier year 2"). But whatever about all that. ANYTIME the Ravens play the cowpies, giants or eagles, GO RATBIRDS!!!!!!!!!!!!! velocet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan133 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 The raven fans actually think we care about them :jerk: take a lookhttp://boards.baltimoreravens.com/index.php?showtopic=12109&st=0 well at least we're important enough to them to be capitalized. :I was listening to 96.3 which is a DC radio station. The Skins Fans are reeeeeeeaaaly hopin they beat us and dont care whether its a pre-season game or not. I've talked to sum Skins Fans and they really dont like the Ravens too much!! I'm wondering,where did the Bad Blood come from? What do you guys think? oh, and don't forget the all important bad blood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monrovia_Redskin Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I see the Seahawks as more of a rival than the Ravens since Seattle has knocked the Redskins out of the playoffs twice. In all seriousness though, the only REAL rivals the Redskins have are the three othe teams in the NFC East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zibby go home you sound silly. If you can't admit Bmore football fans hate the Redskins and the NFL commish during years when Bmore didn't have a team....then you don't know history.

Don't come here and act stupid. There is no room on the bandwagon...bmore fans carry that sign even today. Go home. First of all, you never said "Baltimore Football." You said "ravens fans hate the redskins." And to my knowledge, the "Ravens" never left baltimore, thus have no bad blood for them. Why would fans of the baltimore ravens organization dislike the redskins? Dont tell me i dont know Baltimore Football history my friend. Im 20 years old, i was never a baltimore colts fan. Im a baltimore ravens fan here telling you i dont hate the redskins. history is what it is: history. im not going to sit here and say i dont care about baltimore football history, because thats what brought the ravens to this town, but again, Im a ravens fan. I dont consider the redskins a rival. i dont "hate" the redskins. its as simple as that. p.s. I already am home. I got home about an hour ago from the game.

ZIBBY28 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It may seem like a generic comment to you, but I have been to both stadiums and all I hear is that this is raven country or panthers country. Get a clue, this was Redskins country before you all had your expansion franchises come here. Don't get me wrong, I don't think that the colts should have left town. They should have gotten a franchise before Jacksonville or Carolina in my opinion. The reason I don't like the ravens or the fans is because they complained that they didn't have football for 15 years. Well BFD, because we didn't have baseball here in Washington for 33 years! ok. you win. its not worth arguing. your point is completely ridiculous in my opinion and we'll just leave it at that.

DButz65 Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 This pretty much sums up how filthy Ravens fans are hehheh Inner Harbor Water Has Unsafe Bacteria Levels, Test ShowsBALTIMORE (July 16, 2010) -- For the thousands of daily visitors to Baltimore's Inner Harbor, the water serves as a picturesque backdrop and an inviting diversion. But visitors should think twice before trailing an arm along the water's edge. A water sample tested July 7 revealed that the bacteria level in the Inner Harbor was almost five times the safe limit for human contact. http://somd.com/news/headlines/2010/12173.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBeast Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Baltimore has a football team? Really? Get out! No seriously? Like a real NFL team? Maybe I was castaway for too long on rasta island. Damn Charlotte, pigs DO fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluefood Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Baltimore is number one-a on my NFL hate list (Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuust below Dallas). It killed me inside when the Ravens won that Super Bowl. To the fan base as a whole, though, I don't think the Ravens really mean too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
