Birds of Baltimore

There's been quite a bit of excitement here in the Baltimore area this week.  We Ravens fans are usually fairly excited throughout the season.  And when we are doing fairly well, we tend to go a little overboard.  But what's really gotten us riled up this week is the fact that the Orioles played in their first playoff game in 15 years on Thursday and won. This means that we move on in the playoffs but more importantly we get to play the Yankees...at home!

With the Ravens AND Orioles due to play today, Baltimoreans were more than a little excited.  The Ravens game went off without a hitch.  They played sloppy but not as sloppy as Kansas City and came out on top of a crazy low scorer (9-3).  But unfortunately MD's goofy weather has gotten in the way of our Orioles' fun this evening.  The game was due to start at 6:15 but as of 8:30, it's still rain delayed.  It would seem the excitement will be holding off until tomorrow, I assume but who knows?

But that's ok.  We are still super proud of our Birds of Baltimore and we'll be riding the fun train as long as this lasts!
