Generally I get a little more interested in the games if it's near a championship and its the home team (Orioles or Ravens). Many of my friends go ape wild for any game but especially when they are winning.
This weekend is the Baltimore Ravens vs. Indianapolis Colts. For those of you who don't know the history the Colts were once the Baltimore Colts until the left town (actually were stolen in my opinion) under the cover of darkness. I remember that day as if it were yesterday...it was kind of like remembering where you were when the first man stepped on the moon!
The feeding frenzy has begun with people wearing beat Indianapolis shirts, Bmore bathed in purple lights on high rises and purple clothing everywhere...even Raven jerseys at church! This game will be a kind of sweet revenge if the Ravens win for all of us in the Baltimore area.
And, likely I will watch with the rest of the town in hopes that we will whip their butts.
Today on Facebook one of my friends had a Raven Prayer...you gotta love this...hope God doesn't strike us down or make us loose because of heresy....At the risk of this I will repost it for your reading pleasure:

That is too funny - I am not a sports fan so it is hard for me to understand how people get so carried away, my husband isn't a fan either so it all passes us by.
