Words of Wisdom After a Tough Loss


No one in the Ravens locker room pointed the finger at Cundiff after the game, including Lewis.
"No one play won or lost this game," the Hall of Fame-bound linebacker said. "Could it have put us in a position to keep playing? Absolutely. But one play didn’t win or lose it. There is no one man who has ever lost a game. We win as a team and we lose as a team. There is no ’Billy is at fault, Billy missed the kick.’ It happens. Move on. Move on as a man because life doesn’t stop."



The boys were feeling the Ravens loss today, but it gave us a great chance to talk about how we conduct ourselves when things don't go the way we want. One point that I bring up frequently in class is that we cannot always control what happens, bur we can always choose how we respond to it...we can always choose our attitude. Making the right choice is difficult, and not something we will be able to do 100% of the time. I love what Ray Lewis said and how he is handling the situation. He certainly did not get the outcome he wanted, but he is making wise choices and dealing with it well.
