Being reported by the Raven Zone.
Hines did not say that, it was Ed Bouchette I believe that speculated that it could be a logical place for him to play. Remember, most of these players don't hold grudges towards rival teams the way fans do. On gameday, sure, it's on big time but after that they let it go much quicker than we do.
If the Ravens are willing to pay him the money he's looking for, he'll go anywhere.
Besides, it's not like he's going to help them that much. Even with the release of Lee Evans, they are going to want more than what Ward can probably give them.
Here ya go..

Longtime Pittsburgh Post-Gazette writer Ed Bouchette committed AFC North blasphemy when he brought up the possibility of wide receiver Hines Ward playing for the Baltimore Ravens this season.
The Steelers announced on Wednesday that they plan on releasing the franchise's all-time leading receiver.
“I think he’d love to play in Baltimore," Bouchette told a Pittsburgh radio station. "I don’t think he’s thinking of legacies right now."
Could Ward really defect to his most despised rival? While it's not out of the realm of possibility -- and Ward didn't seem too pleased about the announcement this week -- I don't see the Ravens signing Ward.
Fair warning,
If Hines does join the Ravens, I won't forgive him. Because he would be doing it out of spite.
I hope the Ravens do sign him....Let them waste the money on a washed up slow *** WR....lol I loves Hines and respect what he did for our team but the dude is finished....stick a fork in him.......
You nailed it, F HW if he does!!Quote:

If he does, he gonna get blowed up *KAH-BLOO-EE*
Watch those catches over the middle, they're a DOOZIE
