 I want to thank all the fans who have taken the time to visit my site. I welcome any input that you may have.

I enjoyed being at the games with all of you. 

I ask all of you to please support Daniel Wilcox's foundation.

DANIEL is a great friend and does a lot for the kids in Baltimore.

I ask again why isn't  Art Modell in the Hall Of Fame. Again Art was cut from the list.

What's Our Name / RAVENS

Don't Forget It 

 

  The National Football League should be ashamed of the way the Part-Time Referees have been changing games. I understand they are trying to protect the Quarterbacks that play the game. Johnny Unitas must have turned over in his grave several times last year as the roughing the passers calls were made against the RAVENS. The Refs have to use common sense when it comes to enforcing 

"The Brady Rule". It's time for the NFL to have full-time Refs. It has gotten completely out of hand with the penalties being called.

My Say about the Refs in the NFL

The Refs have just got to get better around the NFL. It's getting worse each week. The NFL must find a way to have full time Refs and not have  individuals working secondary employment. It's also time to let the teams criticize the Refs without getting fined. The NFL has gotten way too big not improve this system. Players are being paid a lot of money and fans are paying a lot for their tickets. Come on NFL get your act together it's way overdue.

Welcome to the web site for Baltimore Ravens Super Fan, Sports Steve LaPlanche, PSL season ticket holder Section 138, row 6, seat 14. You can see me during games on the big screen leading cheers with 51.2 pounds of beads around my neck. I was the featured Ravens fan in Madden 2005 and selected by Sports Illustrated as the NFL Fan of the Week in October 2006 and September of 2008. I Bleed Purple !

I went to my first Baltimore Colts game at age 3 and never missed a home game until they left in the middle of the night in March 1984. It was a night I'll never forget - I stayed at the Baltimore Colts Complex all night and was the last fan to leave.

Many years passed before the NFL returned in 1996 with the Ravens. Thank you. Mr. Art Modell !

It's now time for the Hall Of Fame selection committee to thank Mr. Modell also by putting him in the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. Make sure it's done in 2011. It is way over due.

           A Celebration of Art Modell was held at THE VALLEY MANSION on October 23rd. This was a wonderful affair attended by 900 people. It was Baltimore's chance to thank Mr. Modell and draw attention to get him in the Hall Of Fame

I'm asking all Raven fans to please write letters and draw attention to the voters on the Hall Of Fame committee.

Let's get Art into the Hall Of Fame NOW.

There is just NO reason why Art Modell is NOT in the Hall Of Fame. Let's show them how much power Baltimore fans have. Again this year Art was not selected. I ask Baltimore to continue the fight and let's make this happen next year for Art. Let's get the ball rolling now. Start hanging banners at your tailgates next year and the press will pick up on it. I would like to see banner after banner hanging around all of the Raven fans tailgates

               Getting the crowd to make noise.  Ravens opening game 2009

I try to do everything I can to be a very important 12th Man for our Baltimore Ravens. When your team plays at home it's very important to keep that home field advantage. 

I have now attended 355 straight home games since 1956.

The breakdown:

Baltimore Colts          193 games

Baltimore Stars              9 games

Baltimore Stallions      21 games

Baltimore Ravens      132 games

I have one question for the NFL. Why isn't Mr. Art Modell in the Hall Of Fame in Canton, Ohio ? It's a real shame that he is not in yet. PLease for the honor of the sport put him in soon.
