As was already pointed out, his girlfriend called the Ravens owner a racist and a slave owner and called Ray Lewis an "Uncle Tom." He muddied the waters and then tried to play nice afterward. At that point, it wasn't salvageable.
And putting all that aside, who really wants this circus for a BACKUP QUARTERBACK? Not even the starter.
None of this requires collusion. That's what really gets me. None of the owners had to call each other or sit down in a room and agree not to sign him. No one wants to deal with this nonsense.
