NFL Sunday's Filler

This is the first Sunday since September, that we aren't watching Football.

Filler anyone?

I got to thinking. Well it is Black History Month and we often see so much of our honorable leaders from the past. How about we touch on some of the positive results of their fearless fight and dedication.

I remember in elementary school, there was an award inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.; "Content of Character" award. I received the award in 5th grade and I remember realizing how important it was to be a stand-up guy. Girl in my case.

The entire month of February, I will dedicate a post to a sports role model who makes the most of the opportunities we may not have, if it wasn't for the people who came before us.

Check in every Tuesday and Thursday of this month to see who I'm honoring with my own "Content of Character" award.

Patriotic Duties

Exactly a week ago. A week of pure torture.

Ya know; The torture that comes in forms of text, TV, the radio, coworkers, and don't even think about checking your Instagram feed!

Torture the Patriot way.

I don't know what was more disappointing. Losing to the Patriots or finding out the Panthers loss which meant there wouldn't be a Part two to this .

 Sorry Russ...New Kid on the block.

And no I didn't watch the Panthers/Seahawks game. I had to process what just happened.

All I ask is that I cope in peace. I haven't listened to ESPN radio all week, no Sportscenter and please no Man Crush Ugg boot ads.


I blame the fans. You're the reason I will always hate Brady, Belichick and will never purchase a Gillette product! Job well done!

Being as though the Colts are #4 on the shit list, Can't believe I'm saying this...
Go Colts!

Can we just give the Seahawks the Lombardi now or no?

Go Green



 I read somewhere the color green creates clarity and balance giving you equality between the head and heart.

Being a girl and all, who loves Sports. I'm wearing green.
(A lime scarf ) Green isn't really my color. 



Anyway...
It's NFL Playoff season and things are serious!

We all know how much I love my Ravens and sometimes when asked my opinion on games, outcomes, reasons for stats....

Let's just say I'm not wearing green.

We snuck in the playoffs with help, which I predicted. 
We beat the Steelers in the Wild Card round, which I predicted. 
I'm claiming we beat Brady in Foxborough!

I mean did you see this infographic?

#InFlaccoWeTrust

Am I confident ? Yes!
Why? Because I'm wearing Green!

NO! It's because I'm a Ravens fanatic. Who am I kidding?!

Plus if this were true, the Jets would be well aware of their demise each year.

In a Quiet "Fashion"

When it comes to political or societal issues, quiet seems like a word pretty much nonexistent.

Everyone wants to be heard, everyone feels their beliefs are right and things get pretty messy. 
Everyone is entitled to an opinion.

What about the athlete whose paid to play but has an opinion.

via ESPN


He or she doesn't march the city streets for hours chanting.

He simply wears a T-shirt in support of a man who lost his life in a very unfortunate situation.

Some fans say "it's not appropriate". "It's offensive" or even distracting.

A T-shirt worn for the duration of a warmup then it's back to the jersey colors you so unapologetically advocate for!

Your touchdowns are still made. You still get your game winning shot right before the buzzer.

They find a way to give you all you came for while exercising their right to an opinion all in a quiet fashion.

Distracting? I say impressive.

 All I wanted for my birthday was a Ravens win!


A big booty hoe....So much easier.

When it rains...



They postpone the game.

Remember last week when I was screaming "O" Baby??

Now I'm screaming "OH GAWD!".

As if the need for the Royals to get a slice of humble pie isn't dire enough, Game 3 was postponed due to the rain.

I'm not losing faith, but I am nervous.  

via MLB Instagram


I don't know if this is the hometown spirit in me or pure fact, but if anyone can pull out the Cinderella story. It's the O's!

Okay it's not pure fact. I mean based on what?


And when it rains...

Apparently this is okay to wear.

via Instagram

 NOT!

I know you guys have seen this photo floating around the internet with the best captions ever.

Oh KD, we still love you. Get well soon! The Thunder needs you!

I like a good Westbrook show out but I'd feel a bit more secure with KD.

Minus Flacco having a hell of day Sunday, this may have kicked off a bad week in sports.

via NFL Instagram

KD is hurt, The O's have to pull off the close to impossible and I'm sure there are Fantasy Football players out there who hate life right about now.

Too bad when it's this kind of rain, it just pours. You can't postpone the game.

But hey--
