Josh Wilson was recently criticized by Ravens fans after The Baltimore Sun threw up an inflammatory blog titled, “Wilson says no comparisons between Ravens and Redskins fans”. Here’s what the former Raven told the Washington Post:

“One thing about it, they have nowhere near the tradition of Redskins fans,” Wilson said with a grin. “...My uncle is 50-so years old and all they know are Redskins and you’d almost think somebody’s died when the Redskins have lost. And now I’m getting all these phone calls asking, ‘What do you think about this?’ and they think I’m going to give them all the insight, and I’m like, ‘Get out of here!’ But the Ravens have a strong fan base up there. They’re growing and getting kind of that establishment that the Redskins already have.”

Isn’t this the truth? This isn’t a knock on Ravens fans, some of which need to put down the caffeine and/or Red Bull. Let’s just call this what it is – shameless web trafficking on the part of The Sun while stirring up the ignorant and uninformed.

If anything, Wilson was playing up to the new fans. Do you think Tony Romo tells his new wife Candice that Jessica Simspon was (as John Mayer claims) sexual napalm?

Speaking of the Ravens, they will ink former Vikings’ left tackle Bryant McKinnie to a new 2 year deal today provided he passes their physical. Leslie Frazier lapped him off the Minnesota roster because he couldn’t fit through the door – I mean he couldn’t pass the team physical clocking in at roughly 400 pounds. McKinnie’s playing weight is said to be 335 pounds. Maybe Ozzie Newsome should make McKinnie ride his bike from Miami to Baltimore or sick Baltimore-based tennis icon Pam Shriver after him like the Vikings tried to do with Venus Williams. (Video)

The Steelers better be a great defense for a number of years because they sure have spent a boatload of cash to sign linebackers Harrison, Woodley and Timmons to long term deals. In 2009 Harrison was extended for 6 years, $51.175 M including $20M guaranteed. Earlier this summer Woodley willingly provided his John Hancock for a 6 year deal worth $61.5 M, $22.5M of which is guaranteed. Now along comes Larry…

Timmons gets a 6 year, $50M deal with $18M in guaranteed cha-ching.

Mix in Ben Roethlisberger’s 8 year, $102M deal that was recently restructured and Troy Polamalu waiting in the wings for his new deal and it’s safe to say the Steelers will be a top heavy team as it relates to their salary cap – something they struggled with this offseason.

While we’re on the topic of the Steelers’ defense, Michael Vick looked awful against them in last week’s preseason match of Keystone State teams and unfortunately for Eagles’ fans, Mojo is predicting a come-back-to-Earth season for the NFL’s recently self-anointed dog whisperer. Towards the end of the 2010 season teams caught up to Vick and he wasn’t as effective.

The NFL is a copycat league and Vick will need to adjust, something he’s never had to do much of in the past given his superior athleticism. The Eagles offensive line is anything but dreamy (regardless of what Vince Young thinks) and the bet here is he’ll get to find out first hand because it’s unlikely that Vick will take the field all 16 games.

The Raiders have become somewhat of a joke in NFL circles. They are a bit like that fantasy football team in your league known for making bone-headed moves, giving up a ton for name players no longer performing.

In the case of the Raiders if you are fast, they have a black and silver uniform ready for you, as evidenced by their burning of a third round pick for Terrelle Pryor – a guy who most project as a player who won’t even reach the not so lofty heights of Vince Young.

Who’s next Al, Usain Bolt?

Baltimore Colts legend Art Donovan has never been known as anything but a meat and potatoes and beer kind of guy. And that’s why it’s interesting to hear about how he lost his 1958 NFL Championship ring in Hong Kong back in 1977. Mojo is sure it wasn’t while he was learning how to use chopsticks over a bowl of Kung Pao Chicken.

But the story has a good ending. Recently the ring was put up on Craigslist and through the help of the authorities the well-kept ring is now back on the hand of its rightful owner.

It chaps the Mojo’s hind parts to hear the Dallas Cowboys referred to as America’s Team. What kind of BS is that? And for the team and their alumni to embrace such a self-serving title speaks to the pompousness of Jerry Jones’ pride and joy and perhaps their fans as well.

And maybe, just maybe Cowboys linebacker Bradie James agrees. Recently he spoke to FoxSports.com about the club’s perceived position of privileges.

"I think the entitlement kills us.  Our alumni, our former greats have made us America's Team and we reap benefits that we haven't earned — all the way around, as individuals, as a team. Those guys earned it. We just think we deserve it."

No one deserves to be called America’s Team and if there was a team that could even think about it, it would be the Green Bay Packers – a team owned by a small town in America which was once home to Titletown, Vince Lombardi and now the World Champions.
