Go Ravens!

Eating and drinking
And talking up a shit storm
Just before the game

Gladiators

Battle for glory
In comfort, I watch, amused
Toasting the victors

Purple Passion

Purple Passion seethes
Win or lose we’re gonna need
Beer to calm our souls

Written by Captain Hops.

References: Many Baltimoreans are still a little bitter about the Colts secretly skipping town on a dark and stormy night 23 years ago. In case you didn’t know, there’s a lot more than a playoff football game on the line today when the Ravens confront the Colts. It’s gonna be crazy.
