Nevermore. Get It? ‘Cause They’re Ravens?

“Will you protect this house?! I WILL! I WILL!

So, I’m officially a man now. No, I’m not talking about THAT. I mean that I went to first professional football game, and IT ROCKED. I’ve never even watched a whole game on TV. Not even the Super Bowl. But I really got into the action. I watched as the Baltimore Ravens faced off against the Mighty Bengals of Cincinatti.

Even though it was my first game, I think I caught on fairly quickly. And, of course, beer certainly helps the process along.

One of my favorite aspects was the video montages. The Ravens sure love them some drama, and every promo seemed like it was produced by the same guy who does all the WWE entrance music. When that music kicked in, and you saw the purple images, I didn’t know whether to look for the Undertaker to walk out, or if I was gonna hear “A film by Michael Bay…” The Ravens certainly have delusions of grandeur, but it’s a great part of the spectacle known as football.

Ravens lost, but I had an awesome time. Thanks, babe, for taking my football virginity. Even though it was my first time, you were gentle and loving throughout. Plus, I didn’t cry afterward.
