As the Ravens continued their goal for a Super Bowl title after beating the New England Patriots, Wes Welker’s wife took to Twitter to ‘remind’ or ‘enlighten’ folks of Ray Lewis’ checkered history:
“Proud of my husband and the Pats…by the way, if anyone is bored, please go to Ray Lewis’ Wikipedia page. 6 kids, 4 wives. Acquitted for murder. Paid a family off. Yay. What a hall of fame player! A true role model!”
Well, she ended up deleting the post while replacing it with an apology of sorts, which was probably coerced:
“I’m deeply sorry for my recent post on Facebook. I let the competitiveness of the game and the comments people were making about a team I dearly love get the best of me. My actions were emotional and irrational and I sincerely apologize to Ray Lewis and anyone affected by my comment after yesterday’s game.
“It is such an accomplishment for any team to make it to the NFL playoffs, and the momentary frustration I felt should not overshadow the accomplishments of both of these amazing teams.”
