Update: The first half of this game has riddled with errors on the Ravens’ part. Interceptions. Fumbles. Penalties. Pittsburgh goes into halftime with a 20 – 3 lead. Thank you, Matt Stover! To my knowledge, he has been the most consistent player on the Ravens’ offense; I have watched many games that were won on Stover’s kicks. In fact, there have been games where his kicks were the only reason that the Ravens scored at all! Nice to know that some things are consistent.

I just got off the phone with my uncle… a Steelers fan. You can imagine how this conversation started. My uncle and I have a long-running tradition of good-natured sports rivalries, so I was expecting this call. He gave me the option of recanting my decision to stand behind the Ravens; I told him that no matter how poorly they were playing that I couldn’t do that. Good try though. Coolest uncle in the world.

How ironic. This quote just appeared in my email: “To be prepared is half the victory.” Miguel de Cervantes

Back to the game.

Peace.
