That's right the Baltimore Ravens have yet again called for the head of Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward.

On the syndicated radio show 2 Live Stews this week, Terrell Suggs mentioned that there was a "bounty" out for Hines. This is the second Raven to complain about Ward this year. The first being Bart Scott, who couldn't stop crying after he was destroyed by Ward on a block and now Suggs.

...Really? A "bounty"?... I have one thing to say to the Ravens defense. Shut up and just play football. Hines will take your hits and stand up and smile and never say a word about it. You, on the other hand, get blocked and hit like you are supposed to hit once in your life and you have to complain.

Hines is the staple of what football should be! This is a league where WRs are defined by Chad Ocho-Cinco, Terrell Owens, and Randy Moss, and where blocking is defined as getting in the way of a corner and pushing them. Hines goes out and demonstrates game-in and game-out how football should be played and he does it with a smile on.

    John All I can say is Amen . If you go to the games Hines is always smiling no mater who hits who .
    He is more than a credit to the game he should be a role model .. Well not to the Thugs i guess and we know who they are . Our division is loaded with them Ben is another target
    as most teams know by now as goes Ben as goes the Steelers I can not wait 2 -3 -4 more years when the Steelers Become the Elite and Dominant team that I know they will Be

    I agree with you 100% that this is Football. I wished that Roselle and Tagliabue did NOT retire from being The Commisioners of Football. This Godell guy is out to lunch, like he has something to prove. These defensive players in the league want to hit receivers and backs without anyone hitting them back. Hines Ward changed the game of Football, just like Mel Blount. He should go to The Hall of Fame, but he won't. I also heard that Hines won't be Fined, BUT the NFL is seriously thinking about changing the rules next year because of how Hines plays. How can they do this?

    Amen amen
    I like the way the guy plays the game. He is a physical player witha great attitude. The same kind of attitude I try to instill in my youth football players as a youth football coach. Give me a football player like him any day.

    I could not agree more. Defensive players are embarrassed at being blown up by Hines. That is why they sqwak about it. They have to figure out a way to make themselves feel better for getting leveled by a WR.

    I'm a Browns' fan, and therefore a Steeler-Hater.....that said, you can't like football and not like Ward. He's one of the too few players who are what they should be: a talented player who loves to make big money playing a game he loves. When everyone insists that football is a business only, I think of Ward jumping up with that little kid smile.

    Whatever. Hines is punk. Cheesy ass smile. Taking cheap shots. Anyone can tee off on someone who's not looking. Rivers would wear this dude out any other time. He's like a Hiennah...picking his spots laying low looking for cheap shots when his prey is peoccupied. F**k that dude.
