When Baltimore Raven linebacker Ray Lewis takes the field at next Sunday’s Super Bowl — his last game ever — much will be made of his storied career. Lewis, now 37, had his breakout season four years after being drafted by the Ravens in 1996: Leading tackler in the NFL, he led the Ravens to victory in Super Bowl XXXV and was named the game’s MVP. Just one year before, Lewis had been arrested and tried in connection with a double homicide in Atlanta. It’s perhaps the most dramatic bookend that a professional athlete — a legend, at that — could have to his career: His first Super Bowl, played in the shadow of two slayings, made Ray Lewis a superstar. He now leaves his second Super Bowl an iconic all-American hero, beloved by small children and major corporations alike. Source: NYPOST.com
Ok i read all that and it still doesent change my opinion of him. He was young at the time and hung out with the wrong crowd. He also dident fight at all and he dident kill anyone himself. You guys could throw all the killer jokes at him you want theres still no blood on his hands. Its not like the 2 people killed were inocent people anyway. The way i see it a fight broke out between a group of thugs and people were killed not by ray lewis. If i was with a friend and he killed somebody would it be fair if i was demonized for it no not at all. 1 thing he did do wrong was let them back in his limo but when all hell is breaking lose its not like anyone is thinking straight. Its funny that this stuff is getting brought up now when hes about to win a superbowl. Haters are digging up anything to bring him down right now but i dont think it effects him. I think hes a overall good person right now learned from his mistakes. Hes a very religous man and i dont think that is fake at all. Whatever i say though you guys are going to keep hating on him anyway so i just hope he gets to laugh at you all by holding up that trophy.
Ok and the way I see it he killed them. Or helped them be killed and helped hide the killer. So now what? You don't know, I don't know, only he knows.
Thats how its always going to be theres going to be people on both sides but the fact that this is 12 years ago and being brought up right before a superbowl is just a bunch of haters. Let the man move on you guys want it to be true that he killed those people just cause you hate the man. You would hate the guys even if that night never happened.
I think he definitely got away with something that night. Heck I remember not protecting him in my fantasy football draft at that time because I thought he was going to prison. Oops! Bad call on my part. :)
God and RayRay told me to say this ............... “Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
Baskett theres no blood on his hands cause got rid of the evidence. Also this is not just being brought up now. I just hope you never have kids or find yourself in a position to influence young minds because this country is already hecked up enough without you adding to it.
i was not there so i don't know who killed who or who did what! I Think it was a street fight between a lot of bad people,and two guys with records ended up dying because of it.ray lewis pleaded down a charge and the other two guys got acquitted after lewis testified against them.if the police did not have evidence to convict the guys and the jury acquitting makes talk about it a mute point,in my view!
If you don't have a problem with this: ...you have freaking problems. Ray Lewis has become the person he is today at the expense of human lives? Okay Ray...
Ray Lewis is a thug. Always was and always will be. The reason for the lack of evidence is the disappearance of the white suit that he was wearing. I hate when my expensive suits just magically disappear. Ray Lewis either stabbed a dude or took part in the stabbing of dudes. I don't care if they had a records or were the living incarnation of christ himself, murder is murder. Ray Lewis's career is defined because he killed a dude and then "found christ" and now imposes his will on everyone. Screw this man and heck his legacy.
He is really lucky he did not kill a white guy cause there are some crazy motherheckers in georgia who would have killed his butt while he was in custody.they do not heck around down there! they make the crazy people you see institutions seem like alter boys!
