But, you knew Ray Lewis was going to be a great pro when you heard him proudly boasting about how he only wore two pairs of jeans his entire time at the University of Miami.
If your proudest boast coming out of college is that you only wore 2 pairs of pants your entire time as a star at a university like that one -- it's really no surprise he is the greatest defensive player in the NFL I've ever watched play. That is the kind of crazy thing you'd expect to hear from someone who is undersized, but truly great and was getting better all the time and is still a factor even though he's ancient now.
Sadly, the twitter account for Ray Lewis is run by a PR guy who just posts about charity events. Could you see Ray Lewis in front of a keyboard texting whacked out stuff and making himself look like a complete moron like a lot of these athletes do?

Ed Reed was on that team too and he might be the best NFL player ever to wear pads, if not that then at least this generation.
