Dear Ozzie,

Let me start by saying I'm one of your biggest supporters. When the Ravens needed a WR in free agency and/or the draft and we didn't get one, I told naysayers, "Don't worry... In Ozzie We Trust". In my mind, you are one of the top GMs in the league and there is a reason you've been nicknamed, "The Wizard Of Oz". You make a way out of no way, that's what you've been able to do. From re-signing Ray and Suggs, to replacing Adalius Thomas and still being dominant... you've always known how to build a team.

Then the bomb dropped. Drew Bennett, a player that you had just signed less than a week ago, veered off of 1 Winning Drive and took the Derrick Mason Highway and retired from football. The reason? An old knee injury that resurfaced.

I dunno when there was ever a time to hit the panic button.. but dammit now is the time!



What the hell?!

Last season this team went to the AFC Championship with an average WR corp. This season, Ravens fans were expecting to return there, and possibly make a serious Super Bowl run, if only they added a talented WR. Now, I will say that I liked the Kelley Washington signing. I do think he'll be a diamond in the rough for us. But c'mon Oz... you and I both know this is not enough.

We know that you contacted Arizona about a price tag for Boldin. And one would at least THINK you sniffed around on the Brandon Marshall ordeal. Even though that guy has tons of baggage, no one can deny his talent. But nothing came out of either situation. Nada. Zero. Zilch.

Then there's the available WRs left on the market. Picking through the list of WRs at this point is like ordering crabs at the final hour before they close. Nothing! Epic.... Fregging... FAIL!



Ozzie... please.... My family are season ticket holders. And we want to be happy. We want happy times in Baltimore. The Orioles can't do it so we rely on YOU for to stay competitive. We want Flacco to throw TD's, not running for them, looking like a bobble head doll.


We love purple and black and we support you and the organization through thick and thin. But dude.. the patience is thinning like Homer Simpson's hair....

Do you have Plaxico's attorney's number??? Is Joe Horn on speed dial?? Can you see what Marvin is doing??? Hell I'll even take Ashlie Lelie if he's healthy. But dammit if Mason is really going to retire, you have to fix this... not tomorrow or next year or in 2 years... but NOW!!! This is stressing me out... I'm about to resort into tears Ozzie... Tears!!! Lawd help me I dunno if I can take anymore disappointments

No pressure, mmkay?! Just saying... I'm an anxious fan who's ready to add a playmate to that Lombardi trophy. It called me and said it was lonely. See what you can do.

Sincerely,


A Pissed Off NFL Chick
