I don’t remember to be honest. I just remember staying up to watch the final.
Baltimore Ravens linebacker Zach Orr, the team’s leading tackler this season, has retired at age 24 because of a congenital neck and spine condition, the team announced Friday.
Orr, who also had three interceptions this season, was placed on injured reserve after suffering a stinger in his neck against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Dec. 25. He said he found out about the congenital condition after having an MRI.
“When I found out the news, it was shocking,” Orr said Friday.
He said his “hands are tied” about his decision to retire.
“If I could pass a physical, I would probably take that risk,” Orr said. “But I can’t pass a physical.”
A first-time starter after entering training camp as a backup, Orr finished the season with 132 combined tackles, including two on special teams. Despite missing the final game, Orr’s single-season total was the team’s third-highest in the past decade, behind only Ray Lewis (139 in 2010 and 134 in 2009).

My nerves are giving way here… Brady has always had to get the job done with very little, that’s the beauty of the man, but looking at the team in its current state and looking at what arsenal the Steelers have your head would have to say Steelers. I called them out as potential superbowl winners weeks back as from week 10 on their defence has been as good as anything out there. Bill and Foxboro are obviously two major pluses but we’re relying on Edleman and Hogan to win a superbowl. The D have been better over the last few weeks alright but it’s hardly stellar… How do you keep Bell and Brown quiet and if you some how manage that you still have to contend with James. I suppose keep Brady upright will be a start, he got hit a lot last week. Is Mitchell fit @Gman? I’d imagine they will dare Brady to beat them by going deep as Houston did last week and having Mitchell in the field would give me a lot more confidence.confidence.

Not surprise except for the fact that it took three weeks but Ryan Grigson has been sacked as GM of the Colts.

It’s a right sunny day here in Limerick, if it’s the same in Cork you might want to put some black paint under your eyes.
Thanks, bro. And apologies for asking but I prefer to use TFK as a one-stop shop rather than checking other sites.

It was high jinks when a Sea hawks fan did it to the Pats before the superbowl a couple of years ago… Now it’s a big deal? Your double standards are sickening.
What are you on about mate?
You making a song and a dance about this when it happens all the time…
