The NFL Lost A Great Player This Week

Mention the name "Steve Smith" in front of any Panthers fan and be prepared for an hour's worth of praise and expressive storytelling. We only had 24 games with the NFL's toughest player, but it feels like he's been a Raven his whole life. He made an impact on this team and this city from the moment he set foot in the building. Whether Steve decides to return (STEVE, PLEASE) or retire, we've been extremely lucky to have him around.  

I can't make any circus catches or fire up a locker room... but I can make some really terrible GIFs. So I'm sending off Steve Smith Sr. the only way I know how: memes.
