I thought it was a good game even if there was controversy.

[Mears]

Oh for God’s sake-—here we go again. Another whining crybaby.

Go Pat’s !!!!!!!!!

[ClearCase_guy]

Is it a hate crime when an older black man refers to a younger black man as a “boy”?

[Mears]

Oops!

Go Pats!!!!

[Holicheese]

The Ravens imploded. There is no way the Pats should have even let them into the game.
The holding call was legit and they are whinning about that. Cry babies.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Doesn’t sound much like a “Boy”.

Sounds more like a whiny “Punk”.

[BOBWADE]

He is probably using it as an excuse for the antics on the field.

The NFL is looking into an accusation made by Baltimore Ravens cornerback Samari Rolle that an official called him a "boy" during Monday night's 27-24 loss to New England.

Some people would consider that a compliment, you know.

Call me anything you want, just don’t call me late for supper.

"BOY is a white racist word!"

[lapster]

It was a great game, and for once the Ravens actually did themselves proud by curtailing their usual gangsta thug antics, which have cost them so dearly and embarrassed the city of Baltimore so badly. Then, no sooner is the game over than it’s back to gangsta thug antics.

The Ravens are a team without dignity. They’re a stain on the city of Baltimore. And the sooner they are dispatched (including the #1 gangsta thug/chest pounder/screecher Ray Lewis), the better.

When I first heard this I was concerned, now it comes out an older black man called him a boy, this is beyond stupid.
This goes beyond crybaby status.

NFL PING

This is a fairly high volume ping list

"This is so damn stupid I ain't even gonna deal with it. Stop calling me!"

[toddlintown]

Get rid of organized sports and let these “boys” bring me my coffee at the Peninsula in Chicago.

I’m a good tipper. But bring me extra cream or I’ll call down to the front desk that I was “disrespected.”

[joebuck]

"Don't call me a boy on the field during a game because I said, 'You've never played football before.' "

This player is a total wuss trying to cover his rear end for being a jerk. Reading between the lines I sounds like the Ref said something like, "Boy, I was playing in the Pros before you were in diapers." I wouldn't blame him if his competance was being questioned because he had "never played the game." Shut up and take a loss like a man.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

The only person who should be offended by being called “boy” is one who lived during the time when “boy” was a derogatory appellation for a black man.

LOL! x 2
