He's back! Maxx Crosby merged superthread

[Corleone]

Tank is full speed ahead!

[raidersince63]

The first week we lose while Crosby gets a sack someone will pop in here and talk about how dumb Spytek is

Yup, you can make book on that.

Isn’t Baltimore’s hellhole reputation dated, kind of like Pittsburgh’s? Besides the rich people always live in luxury.

This is exactly what I'm talking about with you. Baltimore is one of the worst, most dangerous cities in America while Pittsburg is one of the, cleanest, safest and best cities in America.

Do you purposely try and be wrong all the time? Serious question.

This shit circulating about Alex Guerrero pisses me off. He needs to stay in his lane, keep him away from the team.

For what it is worth, Forbes ranked the top 15 large cities (500K+) and Pittsburg did not make the list. That was based on safety. US News and World Report ranked cites based on best places to live and again Pittsburg did not come in at all. As for cleanest large cities? World Population did not put Pittsburgh in the top ten

Don't get me wrong, I like Pittsburgh, great food and all. I have long wanted to watch a Raiders game there, but I think you are overselling the city.

That said, Baltimore is a dangerous city, US News had it 4th in the nation. The inner harbor is nice and Camden Yards is a great place to watch baseball, but I have no desire to go back.

Look at the accolades in that article. I've been to Pittsburgh. It's a top city in the country for sure.

[SkullCrusher]

Getting shipped to Baltimore is kind of funny, what a hellhole.

Rich people don't live in hellholes.

Pittsburgh is proud to rank among the top places to live, work, and visit in the United States. Learn more about Pittsburgh's awards and press mentions here.

Ok, so that is an advertisement for the city. If you look at what they are ranking, they are ranking components of the city. The things I cited were overall rankings based on set criteria for all cities ranked. I get it, be proud of your area of the country, but objectively the city is not bad but in the three areas you cited, it did not come in based on legitimate reporting agencies. Forbes, US News and World Report and World Population are all publications of record.

Its the 'shiniest turd in the toilet' deal.

Damn near all area's have really nice places for the rich, who's kidding who?

No. Baltimore is a shithole. Some decent areas right around the harbor and that’s it.

I'm sure that someone will bump this thread every so often...as if you don't already have enough to do around here.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with bumping this thread to talk about Maxx all you, or anyone else, wants. Personally I'm going to be watching Crosby's performance and the Ravens performance and comparing it to what we did with the resources from trading him.

Hopefully it gets discussed more in this thread and doesn't dominate every other thread. The way we've had to manage the Carr discussion to keep it from being an all-Carr forum really sucks. Unfortunately one Carr post in an unrelated thread consistently turns into multiple pages about nothing but Carr.

By the way, anyone who uses this post as an invitation to talk about Carr is getting a timeout.

Yes and this trade makes it much more difficult for Baltimore to give him a huge contract

[Goodtimes333]

Ravens fans and media are hoping we're eating some of Crosby's contract this year lol! Better not be

Crosby's current contract is a bargain - signing him to that extension last year is a big part of the reason we got this kind of value IMO.
