cjatcreek07 Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Ray didn't pull the trigger. What trigger? Ray Lewis and two of his posse got into a fight and two of the people they were fighting ended up dying of stab wounds to the heart. Yes he was never found guilty and personally I like Ray but he isn't exactly an angel

Far more believable!
DrDawkinstein Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 To Ryan, Who is Pete Mitchell? -All the Best, First Ballot HoFer and greatest MLB ever, Ray Lewis.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 This could be taken any number of ways by Ray Lewis and by everyone who is not Ray Lewis. I'm guessing Mitchell intended it in a lighthearted way (inasmuch as someone can be lighthearted about someone's murder) and for fun. Whether Mitchell contemplated this or not I think it certainly wasn't meant for mass consumption. Finally I think there's at least a 50/50 chance that Ray Lewis has laughed about this so I'm gonna go with it being funny (in spite of being in bad taste) and that it would be more appropriate to laugh about it than any other reaction. JMO. I thought it was funny.
Buftex Posted May 26, 2013 Author Posted May 26, 2013 I thought it was funny. I thought it was hilarious, and I am no Ray Lewis hater... though he did suffer from a bit of overexposure this past season...and while I don't think he murdered anyone, I think it is very likely he was more involved in the cover-up (or attempted cover-up) of this crime than we will ever know. I have been collecting sports autographs for years, so it is always fun/cool when somebody adds something unique to their autograph. I have a couple unusual autos. One is "Larry Bird" signed autobiography that was forged by Kevin McHale. The other is a signed 8x10 photo of former Dallas Cowboys great Ed "Too Tall" Jones. The picture is of he and OJ walking off the field at Cowboys stadium after a game. Jones has his arm around OJ's shoulder. This was signed a weekend or two after OJ's arrest. The inscription read "Happier times...who knew? - Ed "Too Tall" Jones.
