The following is a reply sent to a Dear Friend, a saddened RAVENS FAN.

"IF" is a little word with a HUGE meaning!

As HONORABLE people we must humbly congratulate the Winners, those individual team players had NOTHING to do with the THEFT of our TEAM, LOGO, NAME, and SPIRIT - LO, those many years ago!

NO ONE CAN STEAL OUR MEMORIES - OUR TROPHIES - OUR HARD-EARNED STATISTICS - OUR JOHNNY UNITAS - OUR RAY BERRY - OUR ALAN AMECHE - OUR GINO MARCHETTI - OUR ARTIE DONOVAN - OUR ORIGINAL "COLTS" OF BALTIMORE - NO ONE !!!

Now, to the present state of current events...

HEY DOLL, THAT’S LIFE – LIGHTEN UP!

How do you think the players feel? Pretty rotten! But guess what? Every game, of every type, in every place, all over the world, for ever and ever, has the exact same result – ONE WINNER and ONE LOSER!

It was truly a GREAT GAME! A FIERCE COMPETITION – A BATTLE OF DEFENSES AND WITS.

Both teams played well. Look how close the STATS were. NO ONE WAS ABLE TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN!

Just a few mistakes were made by BOTH sides. Turnovers were low – Sacks were low – Opportunities were lost.

It always comes down to – SHOULDA-COULDA-WOULDA !!!

IF McNair hadn’t thrown the interception at the goal line – IF they had given it to JAMAL instead, IF he woulda made a TD, IF he didn’t, Colts STILL woulda gotten the ball, right there at the SAME marker! IF HEAP hadn’t DROPPED that ONE PASS! IF the ball that hit the GOALPOST hadn’t had a LUCKY bounce forward! IF that final field goal had been BLOCKED and RUN IN FOR A TOUCHDOWN !!!!

IF – IF – IF ------- IF ONLY – IF ONLY – IF ONLY ------

IF THE DOG HADN’T STOPPED TO TAKE A SHIT, HE’D A CAUGHT THE RABBIT !!!

WHY weren’t there more passes to MASON? WHY didn’t they use MORE FLAT PASSES TO JAMAL ( when he is already moving, he gets MORE yardage )? WHY doesn’t BILLICK realize this? TOO LITTLE TOO LATE! WHY doesn’t our OFFENSE play the very FIRST quarter with the FERVOR AS IF IT WERE THE LAST? SCORE FIRST! SCORE AGAIN! KNOCK THE PSYCHOLOGICAL SHIT OUT OF THEM QUICKLY! THROW THE BOMB! THROW THE BOMB AGAIN!

BOTTOM LINE ? BALTI-MORONS WERE ALL PSYCHED – PURPLE EVERYWHERE – PEOPLE WANTED BLOOD, REVENGE, GLORY --- RAVENS WON THEIR DIVISION – RAVENS PLAYED A GREAT GAME, WE SHOULD STILL HONOR THEM ---

WHO LET THE DOGS OUT ??? WHO? WHO? WHO?

IT WAS A GREAT YEAR – THERE’S ALWAYS NEXT YEAR !!!
RIGHT ??? :) :) :) TOMKAT
