Welcome to MD Bird Lover

     Is this the longest week ever?  Are you ravenous for your next installment of Ravens football? 

     I hear you, I feel you.  That’s why I’ve come up with 8 things to do to pass the time effectively…

1. Pretend to workout (listen, playoffs are an extension of the holidays-I’ve got it on record).  Of course, the Ravens coaching staff does not endorse this. 
2. Write the NFL an email, let them know we’ll forgive them for the whole Indy thing if they give the city of Baltimore back the 1958 win.  R. Irsay will never be forgiven. 
3. Must check out this flow-chart:  gotta laugh here people, it’s funny.   
4. Do like Danny Wilcox does (see pix. below) and get out your paintball gear for Saturday.  This is a sure-fire way to get your game face on while priming for the kickoff.  Not to mention plaster your buddies with lime green neon paint (it’s totally washable).
5. Get a copy of the Last Season  or at least order one!  (And no, I’m not in any way working for these guys- I just think this belongs in everyone’s library).  Read my review again if you have to.  
6. Take a moment to contact the NCAA about the “BS” bowl, enough is enough already we need a real championship:Dennis Poppe is the contact for the “Football Issues”Committee.
7. Time to clean up around those weathered WNST Festivus Maximus purple signs from Superbowl XXXV.  DO NOT TAKE THEM DOWN!  Just prepare the area. Removing is bad juju.  Yes, we’ve got fresh ones coming, but still, do you want to jinx it?  
8. Paint your body purple, like they did that one time in the SI Swimsuit edition…the people you watch the game with will totally dig it! 

    Why 8? I think you know. Plus I’m fresh out of ideas. And I want to watch the BS Bowl.

   Here’s one that just came to me and isn’t worthy of a number: sign up for my RSS feed service so I can stop razzing all my family and friends!  I sure would appreciate it.
