Best Tickets

[Leak2Troupe03]

Well, I got tickets to the game last Sunday against Cleveland for Christmas and these were the best I have ever had. I was on the Ravens sideline, 50 yard line, row 5 lower level.

Not only did I get to see everybody come out right in front of me before the game standing next to the railing in the first row, but got to watch the game and felt almost like I was on the field.

M&T Bank Stadium has got to be one of the loudest stadiums to play in anymore, and we really cranked it up for the defense in this one. We especially did our job on third downs where Cleveland couldnt convert any and I think took two timeouts because of us.

Anyway, just wanted to tell you guys about it and also wanted to note something most people dont know. Baltimore has the best home record in the NFL since 2000.

Yeah, there's nothing like going to an NFL game. I got tickets to the Saints/Bengals game earlier this year and was amazed at how loud the Dome gets now. The crowd was never that into in until this year (can't imagine why this year is different). Even when we were down a couple of scores, a good number of fans stayed around and cheered until the end.

My seats were not quite as good as your seats were Leak. I had 20 yard line, Saints side, upper level about 15 rows up right at the end of the row. Still worth it.

Best seats I've ever had, speaking of good seats, was to the LSU/Bama game this year. Sat on the 45 yard line of the LSU side of the field. I was a little crimson dot in a sea of purple and gold. LSU folks get a bad rep, but there are few fans I would rather be sitting by.

Yeah though, glad you had fun at the game man.

I had no idea the Ravens were 11-3. Their season has been so quiet.

Are the Browns as miserable in person as they are on tv?

[Leak2Troupe03]

Haha, well since their in the AFC North and know us very well they didnt look as miserable. Bama, I still havent been to a coll football game. Im hoping to get to the Swamp sometime in the next year or so.

There were actually a few Browns fans. Beginning of the game we were on offense and I hear someone chanting defense, and was thinking huh? I look back its a Browns fan with all his gear on chanting and barking.

Turns out once we got to that 17-3 lead I didnt hear him or see him once afterwards. We got the tickets off Ebay though, and im guessing they were PSL's. Not very sure.

To the guy above, yes it has been a very quiet 11-3. I like it that way, we were also a quiet 12-4 team the year we won the superbowl. San Diego scares me though, unlike they were the early week we played them LT has been unstoppable the whole 2nd half of this season.

I still think we can bring in the Lombardi this year, im just hoping we can get atleast a first round bye.

I'm from Baltimore and every week I get a phone call from every damn family member talking about the Ravens. They all have season tickets because my Aunt Theresa is the Director of Premium Services and Suites. Her name is somewhere on the web page. But anyway, the Ravens are having a good season and it's good to see you guys are all happy, but really do you think McNair can bring it home? I don't. I don't really like the Ravens because of how much my family is all over them. The only player I like on the whole team is Heap.

That must have been nice. I will say though, nothing compares to drunk Philadelphians late at night when you are playing your greatest rivals on a national stage.

[JackTheRipper]

Things certainly could be worse. You could be a fan of Buffalo pro sports teams. I swear most of the fan base is in denial about at least one, if not all four super bowls as well as Brett Hull's non-goal. Hell, my mom still gripes about Brian Holzinger (he played for a local high school called Padua Franciscan around here) not doingh is job and knocking Hull out of the crease to this day. The cold isn't the only thing that's bitter in Buffalo.

I may be bias, but even in preseason I thought we had what it took to bring it home. What McNair offers means the most in this time of year, that calmness and collectiveness he brings will be perfect for this team to be successful in the playoffs.

Especially if we can get a bye, and get atleast one game at home. We are one hell of a force on defense at home. I also just wanted to add something about Ray Lewis, and Bart Scott missing the Pro Bowl.

Alot of people are saying Ray hasnt had as good of a season as usual by looking at his numbers. What many are missing is that look at who plays around him. Terrell Suggs (Pro Bowl), Adalius Thomas (Pro Bowl), and Bart Scott who was snubbed the most in the PB voting.

How does Bart not get in with nearly 100 tackles, 10.5 sacks? They had him listed as MLB in the Pro Bowl when really Bart plays outside, we dont run a 3-4 we run a mixture of the 4-3 and other defenses. Trevor Pryce also got snubbed with his 12 sacks.
