Byrne Identity: David Modell Froze Heads And Deserves Credit For A Lot Of What Raven Fans Enjoy

David Modell used to freeze the head of then-Steelers Head Coach Bill Cowher.

Literally.

The week of the Steelers game, he would cut out the head shots of Cowher and key players like Hines Ward, Kordell Stewart, Troy Polamalu and Joey Porter from the Steelers media guide.

When we played the Bengals, he’d have heads of Marvin Lewis and some of their stars.

He would take these photos, place them in dixie cups or ice trays, fill them with water and put them in the freezer.

He did this to help the Ravens win.
