It was a big uproar here in Baltimore for sure. Then we got the CFL Colts and they left now we have the ravens which came from Cleveland. The team that is now the ravens was the former Cleveland Browns.

Shaun, I'm getting a weird feeling that Wade doesn't like the Giants...I could be wrong, though.....

You might be right Pat. They only beat the Patriots twice in the superbowl.

I sure hope you have some HUGE NYY and NYG tags on your truck. People around here love seeing newbies come rolling up with those. Expect a ....um.... warm reception

Wade I have to keep a low profile here in Baltimore as well. Especially because I am a Yankees fan.

Hmmmmmm.....I was looking for BC rankings. Anybody find them? I mean, WADE IS FROM MA., RIGHT? Can't blame him for wanting to adopt another team.

BTW, Nebraska is at #18. About where we've started for the last couple of years.

Yup, that's true. I'm really worried about Nebraska's defense. We didn't have one last year. And this year it has A LOT of freshmen.

Well, from what my stepson tells me (he was there for spring practice, he's one of the student managers, and a football junky) there is a TON of speed on the defense now. But, they are all really young, and that 2 gap system that Pelini runs is a very instinctual system, you have to be able to read very well, and react instantly, so those guys are going to be learning on the fly. Luckiily, they've got a light schedule, except for UCLA, for the first several games, to get up to speed.

Wade might be a touch sensitive about mention of the NY Giants Pat. Seeing as the Patriots did lose a perfect season to the Giants in a superbowl.

BC is a joke. I have a deep deep hatred of that school. I root for BU every year in the Beanpot (hockey). Mass has not been a college football state in a long time. Maybe the Flutie years. For the last 5 years we have lost a lot of talent to lacross. Its too bad. As far a college ball goes, what are my options here? Yale? Harvard? ZooMass? We got nothing.
