Suggs-Bounty on Ward

SUGGS SAYS THE RAVENS HAVE A BOUNTY ON WARD

Posted by Mike Florio on October 21, 2008, 5:45 p.m.

We alluded the other day to recent comments from Ravens linebacker/defensive end Terrell Suggs regarding the existence of a bounty on Steelers receiver Hines Ward.

Shaggy from 2 Live Stews has sent us the audio from Suggs’ appearance on the show and, indeed, Suggs declares that there’s a still-pending bounty on the MVP of Super Bowl XL.

Suggs said that the Ravens wanted to get Ward during the September 29 game between Baltimore and Pittsburgh, but that they couldn’t line him up during a live play.

The problem is Ward’s reputation for knocking the blocks off of unsuspecting defenders. “He does a little cheap shot,” Suggs said. “It’s legal but it be cheap.”

So what happens when the Steelers go to Baltimore?

“We’ve got something in store for him,” Suggs said.

Suggs also admitted during the radio segment that the Ravens had a bounty on rookie running back Rashard Mendenhall, whose season was ended via a broken shoulder sustained against Baltimore.

But bounties are against the rules. So look for Suggs and the Ravens to hear from the league office about this one. At a minimum, stern warnings will be issued before these teams get together for a little Christmas cheer on December 16.

I pretty much agree, but have to also point out that they didn't, in fact, get him in their first game when the whole "bounty" thing was already in full swing. Look, I have no doubt that the Rats can, and do, walk the walk on these things, but they haven't yet on Ward. Here's to some more successful hunting in their second meeting (being as I have no confidence in the Bengals being able to dot him). :cheers:
