I thought Sky advertised their programme starting at half eleven last night during the Steelers game.
I may be completely wrong mind.

Wee correction there Dave, our game kicks off at 11.30pm our time.
Words can't describe how big this game is.
I said it the night we got into the playoffs. Why not us? We're playing as well as anyboy at the moment. I'm still hoarse from Saturday night. When that last pass fell incomplete I ran out the flat cheering. I told you, this has been the most exciting season in my history as a Ravens fan. Two more wins will confirm that.

According to SKY's web-site we are 8pm but NFL.com has us as the late game :grbac: 6.30 local kick-off.
Typical SKY = :rocking: paying monkeys

We will win because the THIRD time is the charm.:thumbup:
I don't feel that there's a team in the NFL that can defeat the Ravens 3 times in one season.
Stay tuned!!:happyanim

I also don't believe there's a team in the league that we can't beat. This season deserves only one ending. That's back in Tampa.

I am so looking forward to this game.
I am trying to decide whether to book annual leave for the next day. Working after three hours kip is a bit of a shitter to be honest. I prefer watching it live rather than sky+ing it and watching it the next night so that is not an option, want to be feeling the moment the same time as everyone else.
What do the rest of you do?

I'm self employed, so I'll just start work later on Monday than usual. If I were you I'd either book the whole day off or book half the day off if the mrs will kill you for "wasting" annual leave on a Ravens game, haha. :D

I dreamt last night that we beat them 9-6 (The score before the fake touchdown in week 15). With them driving four or five times and failing to get the FG or TD. I was so gutted when I woke up in the morning.

I'll send Tania to sleep in the guest bedroom - it's separated from the living room by a stone wall (otherwise our bedroom is directly above our lounge :jester: ).
Sounds like you have an early start as you only get three hours sleep. :mad:
What line of work are you in?
I try to get some kip priot to the evening kick-off :193: . (Tania loves that as well :229031_confused2: )

I work in a Further Education and usually need to get up about half six, I was working on the game finishing about three so that’s just the three and a half hours kip. I have booked the morning off, so will sleep through the morning (hopefully with a big smile).
My wife is getting bored with my obsession now, I made her sit through a Ray Lewis interview that was on Total Access this week and she could see that he was inspirational but couldn’t quite see the attraction.
The worst thing is I have had a superstition going since the Cowboys game that Phoebe (my two year old) kisses the Ravens badge on my hoodie before she goes to bed on game day. Might be a bit sad, but certainly not going to stop now.

Been there, got the T-shirt.:alien: Tania is at melting point with me :mad:
I've tried to explain the game to her, but she comes from a golf and cricket family :grbac:
Many years ago her late Mum tried to goad me by supporting the Clowns:rolling: but as we seemed to tw&t them every time we played them she gave up and went for Green Bay. I bought her a GB hat.;)

My Flacco jersey is on. Listening to ESPN radio for the outside vibe.
Sorted my pc out,but I've gone down with a cold.Can humans catch viruses off of pc's,lol.So I got little sleep lastnight.Good training for tonight.
I still think I'm dreaming the Ravens are in the AFC champ.No matter what happens,words cannot express the pride I have for the team and coaches for getting this far.If things do not fall right tonight,I will feel sick as a dog.But a foundation of wonder under that for what the Ravens have done this season.
Some thing special has brought this team to this point.Will destiny suddenly turn its back on this Raven journey? I pray that the fun in purple and black is just getting started at a new level.
