Bullshit. That was sportsmanship of the highest order.

This pisses me off to the highest degree. I wish I was rich, I would pay it for him. The guy gets caught up in a cool moment celebrating with fans and dumps a little beer on himself and the NFL wants to screw him out of 14k.....we need to rock the bullshit chant at The Bank in week 17 in Peters honor!

Jealous I ordered the same one about a month and a half ago and I’ve been waiting on it just to check my email and card statement to see they refunded me my money I guess Lamars jersey was going so fast they lost track of stock and had to refund random people their money lol
 
Thoughts on using "we" and "us" and similar teams when talking about the Ravens? I think it depends on the context sometimes, but in general, it feels to me like the team represents Baltimore and Maryland, so the fans are as much a part of the team as the actual players. People making comments like "oh, when's the last time you made a tackle" or "what number do you wear" just comes off as being douchy. Anyone else feel that way, or is it just me?

Fans everywhere in the world do this, without us there is no Ravens. If someone has a problem with that theyre probably looking for an argument for the sake of it.

I echo @BloodRaven 's thoughts. When it comes to professional sports, there wouldn't be a sports team with literally zero fans. Fans are just as apart of the team as much as the rest of the players, coaches, executives, etc.

It is WE. I can't imagine using anything else if you're talking about real, passionate fans. Those who ask stupid questions you mentioned don't really matter.

I was born and raised in California and have been a Lakers fan since Kobe was drafted. Trust me, it’s nice, but I still can’t stand LeBron lol

Also, I really enjoy watching the Kings lose. They’re the Browns of the NBA and their fans are insufferable

I tell you, it is awesome to have the Ravens as a well run organization. It helps me suffer through how the Orioles organization is run.

I've had peoples say, you own the team after referring to them as we. It has been many years since it has happened though.
