After 12-year-old Ayden Lasley of Bel Air was reprimanded at school for wearing a "Ball So Hard University" sweatshirt, Terrell Suggs reached out to the family.
What started as a negative experience ended with an outpouring far beyond one Bel Air boy's imagination.

Bill Lasley of Bel Air said all his son wanted to do was show team spirit by wearing his new Baltimore Ravens sweatshirt to school. The boy's excitement quickly changed to confusion when an assistant principal told the 12-year-old he had to remove the sweatshirt or turn it inside out, Lasley said. When Lasley contacted the Southampton Middle School to learn what the problem was, he was told the phrase "Ball So Hard University" which was written on the front of the sweatshirt, sent "mixed messages," Lasley told Patch Thursday afternoon. Lasley said a school representative told him the phrase was banned by a school policy. The school's decision has since been reversed, according to Teri Kranefeld, manager of communications with the school …

These days, nearly all football players and star baseball and hockey players come with a dollar amount, set by the venue hosting the signing. It's for 2 reasons. First, is so the venue can re coup some of the money that it costs to being the player to the venue, which is always over 10 grand. Secondly, in the world of Ebay, the autograph will go for more than $65 online anyhow, so the …   more ›
