Ravens

Well, it was a good season. Somehow it is fitting that we ultimately lost to the Steelers.

I like this quote from Sports Illustrated:

"Flacco's performance conjured memories of another rookie quarterback who took his team to the AFC title game before coming unglued at Heinz Field. Ben Roethlisberger finished his first NFL season by going 14-of-24 with three interceptions in a loss to the New England Patriots in the 2004 AFC championship game.

Roethlisberger won the Super Bowl the following season.

The Ravens can only hope a year of experience will work similar wonders for their young quarterback, who only 13 months ago was flinging passes for the University of Delaware."


We'll see where things go from here! I took this picture as we left downtown this evening. I love when Baltimore is purple. I'll miss the camaraderie the games inspire.

No choice but to root for the Cardinals! After the other Arizona loss of the year (McCain) they deserve something too.

$20.00?
I'm rooting for the Cardinals.

Aunt Donna I'm pretty sure that was gambling, and therefore against the law. So criminal.
