Wes Welker's wife apologizes


...
Welker's wife, Anna Burns Welker, used social-media site Facebook to take a few shots at Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis on Sunday night after the Patriots' 28-13 loss to the Ravens in the AFC Championship Game.

"Proud of my husband and the Pats. By the way, if anyone is bored, please go to Ray Lewis' Wikipedia page. 6 kids 4 wives. Acquitted for murder. Paid a family off. Yay. What a hall of fame player! A true role model!" Burns Welker said in a since-deleted post on her personal Facebook page.

Coach and Players wives should be banned for life from Twitter. What gives them the right to say shite? They're married into $$$?

STFU.

Hey, Mrs. Welker - if Wes drops less balls yesterday, maybe they go to New Orleans?

Hey, Mrs. Bunch-Brady - if your duschebag hubby stops trying to go Zinedine Zidane on Ed Reed, maybe they score at the end of the 1st half.

Hey, Mrs. Bile-Enema - your husband was/is now a pig farmer.

I don't like using the word to describe women, but in this case I have to make an exception....

Freaking deal with it, ya attention whoring, spoiled azzed, money grubbing beeeiotches!

Shocking
The fawning over the postseason play of Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis has been over the top.

Lewis has been credited with 44 tackles in three playoff games, the most since Carolina's Dan Morgan had 45 in 2003.

But has he really been that good? I wanted to find out. I had an idea those tackle numbers were inflated a little, and I also wanted to see where he was making those tackles.

So I studied every defensive snap the Ravens have played in the postseason. I didn't just watch the plays where he was credited with tackles because I wanted to see if perhaps he deserved some on other plays.

The easy way to describe what I saw is that Lewis is still a decent player, capable of making a few big plays now and then, but he isn't what you would expect from a guy with 44 tackles in three games.

His best game of the postseason came against the Broncos in the divisional round. He was credited with 17 tackles but actually had 14, including 10 solo tackles. In the Indianapolis game, he was credited with 13 tackles but had nine. Against New England in the AFC Championship Game, he was credited with 14 and I had him with 10.

So the numbers are inflated. Some of that is from Lewis getting credit for diving on piles. When in doubt, give Ray an assist.

The other thing I wanted to study was how far down the field was he making those solo tackles. In the three games, he had 28 solo tackles for 177 yards. That means the average gain on his solo tackles was 6.3 yards -- not that impressive. He had two tackles for loss in the three games, and one of his solo tackles was a 2-yard gain by Tom Brady on a scramble when Lewis just fell on top of him after Brady fell down.

Well, well, well....here we go again.

The week of the Super Bowl, and Ray Ray does it AGAIN.

This time, instead of shanking a couple of guys, he had a deer shanked:

WTF?!?

The good news is that linebacker Ray Lewis may not be facing many questions about a 13-year-old controversy during media day. The bad news is that there's a fresh topic into which the assembled reporters will want to delve when Lewis and the Ravens gather at the Superdome for the annual exercise in journalistic hysteria.

According to Sports Illustrated, Lewis contacted a company owned by a former male stripper to obtain a deer-antler velvet extract after tearing his triceps in October.

Mitch Ross of S.W.A.T.S reportedly videotaped the phone call from Lewis.
"Spray on my elbow every two hours?" Lewis asked Ross regarding the extract.

"No," Ross said. "Under your tongue."

Later, Lewis asked Ross to "just pile me up and just send me everything you got, because I got to get back on this this week."

The problem for Lewis is that the extract contains IGF-1, which is on the NFL?s list of banned substances. For the NFL, the problem is that Lewis will retire after Sunday. So there?s really nothing that can be done - unless Lewis admits to it on Tuesday and the league puts the investigative process into the highest gear possible.

Even then, it's impossible that the matter would progress through all available appeals before Sunday night.

Ray Ray just shut up and play the game and get the hell out of the game. You are an embarrassment to yourself and to all live humans.
NEW ORLEANS – The Ray Lewis Story, as told [often] by Ray Lewis, has generally been one long on redemption but light on remorse and even remembrance of the darkest night of his life.

The Baltimore Ravens linebacker will speak at length about his faith, about his relationship with God, about his altogether righteous and wonderful life with all its blessings. Yet he hardly acknowledges the night 13 years ago in Atlanta where a fight in the street left two men dead and Lewis eventually turning state's witness and avoiding a murder rap to plead guilty to obstruction of justice. He testified at the trial of two of his friends but neither was convicted.

For a man that embraces a very open and public existence to cling to a private moment of such a major incident is to some fans the proper way to move on from a tragedy, to others the flaunting of a criminal who is getting away with it, and, to the vast majority of everyone else, something in between.

Super Bowl XLVII media day came Tuesday and while Lewis held to his typical lines – much talk about God, little about what happened – he did open up, perhaps without knowing it, more than we've ever seen.

"Nobody here is really qualified to ask those questions," Lewis said, trying to deflect talk about the murders. "I just truly feel that this is God's time, and whatever His time is, you know, let it be his will. Don't try to please everybody with your words, try to make everybody's story [sounds] right.
