With the NFL lockout going on, It is a miracle that the players haven't been beating there old ladies, Driving drunk and coming up "HOT" on there piss tests. But, Ray Lewis thinks that the fans are going to go crazy. Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis says that there will be an increase in crime if the NFL season is lost to the ongoing lockout. “Do this research if we don’t have a season — watch how much evil, which we call crime, watch how much crime picks up if you take away our game,” Lewis told ESPN.

Lewis said the lockout affects “way more than us (the owners and players).”

“There’s too many people that live through us,” he said.

When asked why he thought crime would increase if there are no NFL games this year, Lewis said: “There’s nothing else to do.”

Lewis said the lockout boils down to a matter of ego.

“It’s simple,” he said. “ We really (have) got to remove pride.”
