Ravens Poop
  • The Ravens dominated the New York football Giants 33-14 to win the AFC North crown for the second year in a row, and assuring the Ravens of a home playoff game. This week, in the final game of the regular season, the Ravens go to Cincinnati to play the Bengals, 1 pm. The Bengals are going to the playoffs as a wild card for their second straight year as well after beating (and eliminating) the Steelers last week.
  • 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 Jamison Hensley’s Blog here to stay up to date with all of the AFC North news.  
  • Question: Which NFL team, besides the Ravens, have gone to the playoffs each of the last five seasons? Answer: Trick question – the Ravens are the only team to have made the playoffs the last five years.

Funny Poop
  • A couple was Christmas shopping at the mall on Christmas Eve and the mall was packed. As the wife walked through the mall she was surprised to look up and see her husband was nowhere around. She was quite upset because they had a lot to do. Because she was so worried, she called him on her mobile phone to ask him where he was. In a calm voice, the husband said "Honey, you remember the jewelery store we went into about 5 years ago where you fell in love with that diamond necklace that we could not afford and I told you that I would get it for you one day?" The wife choked up and started to cry and said "Yes, I remember that jewelery store". He said "Well, I'm in pub, right next to it".

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
