08:03 AM ET 01.25 | For his part, Ravens inside linebacker Ray Lewis said he doesn't believe in jinxes. CBS, which is broadcasting the [Super Bowl], brought an authentic Vince Lombardi trophy to the Ravens' complex Wednesday, intending for the AFC champions to pose with it for pregame video building up to kickoff. However, Lewis wanted nothing to do with the trophy until it's earned on the field at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome against the 49ers. "I told my team, 'Don't ever take pictures with nothing that's not yours, nothing that you haven't earned,'" Lewis said. "When we hold that Lombardi, whoever holds that Lombardi next Sunday, you've earned it when you touch it. And don't fool yourself and try to trick yourself, 'This feels great.' Don't go through that."

Ray then stood guard next to the trophy with a rather large sword.

That makes two of us. I don't want the Ravens anywhere near the Lombardi Trophy, either.
Go Niners!

The Ravens aren't on my list of favorite teams under any circumstances. I'd root for them if they were playing the Giants or the Cardinals, but other than that, I'd be on the NFC bandwagon.
And the damn grapes have pits in them, too.
