Let me start by saying this is NOT a Steelers sympathy post, FTS all day every day. But I can’t help to think that the Ravens (and their fans) are the new Steelers. All I’ve seen from that fan base since TNF is them bashing the team, the fans, the players etc.
From celebrating Joe’s injury, to calling for Logan Wilsons death. I just can imagine them actively engaging in this way. Its disgusting.
All I saw from Bengals fans after the Andrew’s injury and possible Lamar injury were posts like “Dang… rest up, get well.”. Ravens fans just doubled down with the hate against the Bengals and their fans. Heck, theres even companies in Baltimore (Jimmy’s Famous Seafood) I saw posting hate against Joe after his injury.
I’ve been sitting on these thoughts for a few days… but I just had to vent a bit. I’ve just seen disgusting and embarrassing takes from those fans since the last game. Anyone else feel this way at all?
I personally would never celebrate a players injury but all this hate towards the bengals stems from 2/3 seasons ago when you guys played against 3rd string McDonald’s corners and decided to run up the score in the 4th quarter despite being up by 21 with little to no time left. What made it worse is Joe burrow and others talking shit after winning. Personally I been a fan of Joe burrow since lsu and hated when he was injured his rookie season but after talking shit playing vs an injury filled roster made me lose all respect. But still that doesn’t justify the fuck joe burrow chants
