Terrell Suggs On Patriots: ‘Tell Them To Have Fun At The Pro Bowl. Arrogant [Expletive]‘
This is a great column full of great nuggets courtesy of Yahoo! Sports‘ Dan Wetzel, and we suggest you read the whole thing. But, as far as headline news goes, the following statement from Terrell Suggs is what you’re going to be hearing about today:
This was a locker room born of frustrations past, battles lost, injuries suffered. This here was a long time coming, especially up here in Massachusetts, where a Super Bowl dream died in this very game 12 months ago. That night Lewis stood and answered about retirement but vowed to return. Suggs, the 2011 defensive player of the year, would miss the start of this season with a torn Achilles and then later games with torn biceps. It wasn’t until the start of the playoffs that Lewis, Suggs and safety Ed Reed, the final piece of the iconic triumvirate, were on the field together this season. The Ravens haven’t lost since. Every time Lewis started getting emotional, overwhelmed by the moment, overwhelmed by one last opportunity, Suggs took it back home. These are the Ravens, home to the most vicious and fearsome defense (just ask them) in the league. There’s no time for crying when you can mock the fallen Patriots down the hall, taunt them with the beating they just delivered. “These are the most arrogant pricks in the world, starting with [coach Bill] Belichick on down,” Suggs declared. “Tell them to have fun at the Pro Bowl. Arrogant [expletive].” He wasn’t done. “That’s funny, ever since Spygate, they can’t seem to get it done,” he said in a mock tone to no one in particular. “I don’t know what it is.”
