It is a rite before any big game. Rival governors are supposed to make lame-ass bets so they can get air time. And lame-ass writers like the one you're reading now are supposed to render insulting prose about the the rival team's city.
Unfortunately, I don't know much about Baltimore. In fact, no one really knows much about this suburb of D.C. [Insult #1], because who really cares about the Fargo of the East [Insult #2]?
I did watch a few episodes of The Wire, and noticed they predictably gave the Irish cop a drinking problem. Obvious conclusion: People in Baltimore are racist [Insult #3]. But the easiest way to insult Baltimore is by letting Ravens fans speak for themselves.
Take the video above. Here we have the Quintessential Douchebag Wannabe Gangster White Boy, a monosyllabic creature found in abundance in Baltimore [Insult #4]. Notice his rapier wit as he attempts to rip Cowboy fans. Were he to play Jeopardy against a team of non-English speaking middle school students, he probably wouldn't lose too badly [Insult #5].
After the jump, you'll find additional videos of Ravens fans. Viewer Warning: It feels like watching auditions for Deliverance, The Sequel [Insult #6].
The dancing fan who for some reason goes to games in full uniform.
The guy who would laugh in Ben Roethlisberger was dying in the street.
The cave dwellers welcome visiting fans from Indianapolis.
