Ravens VS Vikings Sat. Aug 16, 2008

Hey Ravens fans

If you have never been down to M&T Bank stadium to see a live game I do recommend it. A friend of mine and I joined a full house of fellow fans to watch our team take on the Vikings. It is amazing to see and hear the sights and sounds of thousands of people cheering for the same reason, you know one voice except~ for a few Vikings fans here and there.
The awesomeness and pageantry of the NFL's largest marching band ( Baltimore Marching Ravens) is truly a sight to behold.

And before I go too far I just want to take a moment and say. Big "UPS" and job well done to one of the best little league football teams, and members of their family's. Not for their record or how well they play the game. But because all night I sat in front of them at the game and I must say that they were the most well behaved children that I have come across in a long time. The Harlem Park Middle School Buccaneers. I am sure that they will probably say, and they would be right I made more noise by myself then all of them (more than 30) put together. We always hear when kids are out of control but so few of us take the time to applaud them when they are great. Soooo... SUPER JOB! to my new best friends and keep up the good work. All of you will always be winners in my book!

Now about the game!!!! WHAT in the world are we going to do this year? I could be mistaken but we still have not fixed our main problem. Who is the quarterback? And when will he get to step in and just play the game win, loose or draw.

This QB review is all ready on my nerves. If Troy is going to play then let him play. But if it is to be Boller then let him, don't keep changing and changing because then they never have a chance to get into a good rhythm. Which bring me to a question; is there such a thing as QB rhythm? And can you get in that rhythm in one quarter? Someone please help!

Can we keep playing like this and expect to show any progress this season? Or are we setting the next starting QB up for failure?

Personally, I believe that many fans would be just find if either Tory or Boller would play the season and give Flacco the time and opportunity to learn and grow. I believe that every first year QB should sit the bench and soak up all he can for at least one year. Is this not the same thing we did with Boler putting him in with no time to learn, and look where that got us. If we don't learn now we will never have a future?

As always I love, love, love my Ravens no matter what and I am keeping hope alive. Maybe, prayerfully Coach Harbaugh has a great plan for the all troubled QB position.

And to the super Viking fan wearing a Redskins hat behind me (Jordan) we will see you again~

ROOKIES NIGHT OUT!!

Who knew?

A few rookies, a new coach and it look like a great season ahead.

Thursday preseason game vs the Patriots should have been billed as the rookie show. It was great to see all the new bright eye rookies take the field.

What in the world will our roster look like in two weeks. Go luck to all of you playing (You make the cut) at BaltimoreRavens.com.

I know people say preseason doesn't really mean any thing but after our win over the all winning, all scoring New England Patriots. I am even more excited about this up and coming season.

We have a great team and after all they have the best fans in the NFL. It is my hope that this season goes as good if not better as Thursdays game.

Purple day at traning camp (Monday 8/4/2008)

Someone ones say a picture is worth a thousand words. So I hope that the 136 pictures from Mondays (August 4, 2008) purple day at training camp says ......I hurt the entire week after that event.

As a member of the Purple Just for Women Club we were invited to come out and play a little flag football. I am sure that when I say it was far more physical then I expected it to be!!! I am not just speaking for myself.

In my mind I though we would go, meet some players and run just a little. "NOT"

They give us a work-out. We played Two 15minute qualifying games and then (2) lucky teams went on to the championship game (more hurt and pain).

Yet when it was all said and done I would not have traded it for the world. It was a absolute blast!!! It was great to met other women who enjoy football and feel free to ask the (stupid) question without getting jump on. The season has not even begun yet and I'm looking forward to next years purple day. It was ooooh so much fun!
