The S-Thread Runthrough For 12/10/12 (1st Version): Cameron Fired As Ravens' Defensive Coordinator


After two straight losses, John Harbaugh & Ozzie Newsome, the Ravens out of nowhere have decided to axed offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and replace him with B coach Jim Caldwell.

Though it is quite the overreaction, what did Cameron in was that disastrous first series in overtime that produced an embarrassing three and out for Joe Flacco, Ray Rice and company against an atrocious Redskins defense.

Quite frankly, the Ravens should have drove and scored the game winning touchdown on that drive, but instead saw just a few plays later tasting defeat and maybe losing a first round "BYE" in the AFC playoffs for good.

Nevertheless, to do this with three games left remaining in the season is quite the shakeup. But Cameron really irritated Harbaugh and Newsome to the point yesterday that it was maybe not just an overreaction at all.

Still, firing the coordinator for a Super Bowl contender right at the end of the season is something I can't ever recall.

The Runthrough

The NHL just might as well cancel the rest of its season for good. The owners have disgraced the sport by just trying to take more money from the players.

Robert Griffin has a sprained ankle, but even if it's thankfully just that, we know how key his mobility is to that entire offensive and team overall. Griffin is capable of being as accurate as any quarterback (including Rodgers, Manning, Brady, Roethlisberger and Brees) in the league, but he's not as seasoned to rely on passing the ball 40 times a game just in the pocket.

Not saying he would be as mistake prone as Andrew Luck has having to throw it 40 or 50 times, but that's a big adjustment.

Taylor Townsend has finished the year as the #1 junior tennis female player in the ITF rankings. Maybe Patrick McEnroe can give Townsend an apology for his ridiculous treatment of her. It would be as deserving as this idiot who ran up and heckled Townsend about her weight. I just really do hope this girl succeeds big time.

Speaking of McEnroes, John won another legends title on Sunday, beating Mats Wilander. He truly loves the game.

And with Lionel Messi setting the record in most goals scored at the highest level by a male player, passing Gerd Mueller, maybe it would be right for Andres Iniesta to give his UEFA player of the Year award to Messi. I mean, it would only be right to do just as so.
