From the Prez –

Greetings to all..

 

A reminder that our next meeting will be held on September 8th at the American Legion in Ocean City @ 7:30…Sorry I missed the last meeting, but I’m guessing all went well..

 

I am looking for a volunteer to chair the nominating committee…please email me or contact me by phone if interested.. rjm73054@gmail.com and 410 446 7422…

 

As I have stated earlier I would like to set something up with the American Legion to host a couple of 1:00 games this season with our Roost..I just need a feedback to me or Ron Apperson of the House committee on a few things:

1-What games all would all be interested in

2-Have it for members only or to have it open for family and friends

3-What food items all would be interested in..or what the Legion can offer

Give it some thought and get back to me…I will further discuss with House committee…

 

Don’t forget the football sweepstakes for this year…see Michele’s report..

 

The Shorebirds game is tomorrow night and the Booze Cruise is coming up on September 7th..my thanks to Tony Chaplinski and Gary Miller for organizing these two events…

 

The Ravens are looking good in pre-season thus far and how ‘bout dem O’s…All take care ..hope to see all at the Shorebirds game..

Good of the Roost:

·         My name is Bobby Trosset and I am a YouTuber/content creator based in Baltimore, having recently left local radio (98 Rock/WBAL) to launch my own sports media company.

 

I'm reaching out to share that Sarah Ellison and I are teaming up to co-host the "Ravens Vault" through Blue Wire Podcasts and we officially launched July 25.

 

The show features two kinds of episodes:

o   The "Morning Ravens Vault" which delivers the most important Ravens news, in just 15 minutes.  These are released Monday-Friday.

o   Traditional long-form (30-45 min) conversations featuring interviews, expanded analysis and/or mailbag Q&A kinds of episodes.  These are released 1-2 times per week.

 

According to Chartable, our podcast ranks 15th in the country under Apple's football category as of earlier this week.

If you think you are interested in checking us out, please don't hesitate to follow our links below.  The show can be found on most podcast platforms.

Thanks for your support and here's to an enjoyable upcoming football season in Baltimore!

Funny Poop

·         A middle aged man goes into the doctor's office for a check-up with a litany of complaints.  The doctor speaks to the man’s wife alone and says, "There is nothing the matter with your husband.  If you make a couple of meals for him a day, let him watch his sports.  Do not complain at him too much and require him to listen.  Limit his exposure to in-laws and make love to him once a week.  Then, he’ll probably live another 20 years."

She returns to her husband’s side in the waiting room. He asks, "What did the doctor tell you?"

"You are going to be dying soon, my dear."

 

Etcetera

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
