I had never heard of Ken Riley before today, which is odd because apparently he was awesome.

That's on me, apparently.

Yes, Riley was amazing. It is a HoF crime that he isn't in Canton.

Being the resident old timer, I can tell you that Ken Riley was really, really good.

Guy was a perennial.

Played every game and made the pro bowl in his last season as well. (Just looked it up)

He didn't actually make the Pro Bowl, but he was first team all-pro (go figure). Those last two seasons are wild. Charles Woodson-esque late 30s seasons to cap off his career.

Maybe these Chinese sites sell Ken Riley jerseys.

I think I'm done with Chinese jersey sites. Last time I tried to order one, the charge came through as a Chinese travel agency and Vise immediately flagged it and canceled my card. It was weird, as I had used that site for years (same company, they changed their website numerous times as DHS shut the site down). Still get emails from them, but haven't tried ordering since. Shame, because I'm convinced they are selling legit (authentic) merchandise.

I thought this was a reference to some baseball scandal. No, that site looks way more legit that the one I used. The one I referred to is a soccer apparel and jersey site formerly called Elmont Youth Soccer or something, now its called Edmond Soccer Shop. 100% of the products I received were high quality and shipped way faster than expected. I recommended to a lot of friends, and they all had great experiences with the site. Paid around $25 for jerseys.

I've used them a ton too. I don't think they're 100% matches, but they're damn close.

Losing Corey Davis and Jonnu Smith does not seem to hurt so much now. Leaving Jones or AJ Brown in single coverage every play will certainly create some issues, talk about pick your poison...

I’m trying to think of a high-profile QB’s career fading into irrelevance as much as Matt Ryan’s.

eta: seems to me Jones is exactly the type of player the win-it-all mode Ravens should've been fixated on.

I'm actually interested to see what they do to fit that under their salary cap. I mean you can make just about anything work but this might be tricky.

One vote for Daunte Culpepper.

Culpepper was injury related. I wouldn't count that. So is Cam Newton really.

That's actually probably true. He might be just as good this year, Ridley was arguably their #1 WR already.

Ridley is an outstanding player, it will be interesting to see how he goes without Jones on the other side of the field...

Jones missed 7 games last year. In those games, Ridley was quite productive. So he'll probably be fine.

He was awful last year. Perhaps he would have improved this upcoming season but as of recently he's just been a name, much like Alan Faneca.

Or ankle. Looks like he's heading for a third surgery.

Burglary domestic violence sounds weak. I stole something from my girlfriends house? Is there necessarily violence? If there is some fine but if its just burglary maybe there shouldnt be the violence part.

Update says he was just trying to get into a house, not actual DV, and that he was only being held because he needed to be in front of a judge or something. BUT ... the reason he was at the house was because he bailed on his car after a suspected DUI crash.
