Weekly Poop 9/14/11

Roost #44 Poop
·         Dates to Remember:
·        Tonight – Ravens Rap!  From Eileen Abeel: “The Ravens Rap show is now being taped by Comcast Spotlight.  It will air on Beach TV on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays 2x a day.  It is still being taped, at the same time, for radio for airing on WZBH, airing Pre - "Pre-Game" NFL GameDay Sundays.  The TV show is just 1 hour, whereas the radio is still 1 1/2 hours.  The show is being taped on Wednesdays 7:00 - 8:30 pm, starting September 7th, prior to 1st regular season game against Steelers, at The Blue Ox Bar & Grill 127th St. & Coastal Hwy.  We will actually be starting the show about 7:15pm, because of the time constraints with Mike Bradley.  It looks like we will be getting Bruce Laird probably for every show, instead of every other.  There may be a few he can't make.  John Gehrig & Tony Lombardi will be part of the show again, as well.  The show will have specific timed breaks & subject matters, just to make it easier on editing the shows for television.”

Ravens Poop
·        The Ravens laid a total ass whipping on the Steelers, 35-7.  The good guys totally dominated all facets of the game and made the Steelers look old and slow.  It may be only one game, but notice is served to the rest of the league: Here come the Ravens!
·         Good news notes and nuggets from Sarah Ellison’s Blog here.  It’s getting to the point where I can hardly stand ESPN, but I do go James Walker’s (soon to be Jamison Hensley’s) Blog here to stay up to date with all of the AFC North news.

Funny Poop
·        Once upon a time there was a female brain cell which by mistake happened to end up in a man's head.

She looked around nervously but it was all empty and quiet.

"Hello?" she cried, but no answer.

"Is there anyone here?" she cried a little louder, but still no answer.

Now the female brain cell started to feel alone and scared and yelled at the top of her voice "HELLO, IS THERE ANYONE HERE?"

Then she heard a very faint voice from far, far away.

"We're down here ..."

Etcetera
·         Got poop?  Let me know!  I’m going to try to get this out every Wednesday so if you get it to me by Tuesday I’ll try to include it.  Your input is appreciated.

Baltimore Ravens, let’s go
And put that ball across the line
So fly with talons spread wide
Go in and strike with Ravens pride
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Ravens dark wings take flight
Dive in and show them your might
For Baltimore and Maryland
You will fly on to victory
