They gave up a lot to barely move.

so will this be the game thread, or will it actually be over in game threads.

It's in Ravens Talk.  Only admins can start threads in the Game Threads forum.

Please add a note about not spoiling the picks as well.

I've tried.  Might stop one or two.

I'll post where I want because there's no rules where there is no future. 

 

Follow me to the dark side posters, make a new thread for every comment you have! No comments, all OPs!

We can still suspend you.  :-)

And PLEASE, I'm begging you, don't spoil the announcements.  No matter what you see on Twitter, etc., don't post spoilers before the pick is formally announced on TV.  

PLEASE!

That, too, but it seemed more convenient for everyone not to be spread out through the Ravens Talk, Other Teams, and Draft forums. (Oh, and those people who always try to hijack the blogs).

You're almost forgiven for shutting down the forums.

Does that mean a "game thread" is a good thing?

We're going to try to run a draft "game thread" tonight to try to make it easy on everyone to keep up (and praise/criticize the picks).  Please join in when the draft starts.

Our last draft night. 

Anyhow, let's talk about the picks/moves of all the teams as they happen.  No mocks (other than mocking the analysts/choices) please.  

Once we make our pick, a "Welcome to Baltimore..." thread will be started for that player and discussion of him should go there.  This one should continue on with other team choices.  

Since the draft doesn't start for a few hours, this will stay locked until later, but we wanted to let you know we were going to do this so you could plan.

I cant remember the last time I watched NFL network. I used to watch that 'good morning' show everyday while getting ready for work.

 

Now when I listen to random analysis videos they post or mocks, I just shake my head and go wut

Pretty much the same for me.  They got too caught up in the personnel and less about the NFL.  I don't need/want their opinions.  I want news.

So far, the O's are 4-0 when Ubaldo starts and he doesn't give up more than 5 runs,

And those runs last night were undeserved.  When we can all see the divot showing the ball was foul, how can NY get it wrong?  I swear they spend the evenings drinking up there.

You don't draft a safety or corner just because they can catch. They're main job is to be able to cover the wide receivers, not catch like a wide receiver. Of course it is good if they can catch, but you shouldn't specifically be looking to see if they can catch or not.

Especially since everyone knows if DBs could catch they'd be WRs.

That game was awesome. I was watching at home with my family and everyone left when there was about a minute left. I just sat at the tv to watch the end of Ray's career. When Jacoby scored the td, I was like  "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! it's tied!" and everyone came running back to watch. That was probably the most emotional I've ever been during a game.

My whole neighborhood (except that one Steelers fan) erupted after that game.  We were outside making all kinds of racket and one family was even setting off fireworks.  Best spontaneous block party ever.

The other thread is offseason, this is a game day thread, post during games

No, this thread is off-season AND the remainder of the time the forums are open.

Oh my god, they hit Manny!

Sure, they had a relief pitcher throw at his head AFTER they had a big lead and the series was almost over.  Chickenshit move.  A team with character would have either foregone the drama or beaned him in his first at bat yesterday.  No respect for that team.  Crap runs rampant in Massachusetts.

Just another idea that fans TALK about doing but rarely actually do.

Lot of talking... very little walking.

That's  hypocrisy.

 

Actually, considering the ratings dive, I think they do.  I know for sure I do.  MNF has been pretty much unwatchable for 2 years now.  If it's not the Ravens, I'm not watching bad games.  

Brach has turned out to be a nasty, nasty, pitcher.  Who knew?

I think I remember something about the Ravens surely not having a home game in London as the stadium contract says all their home games must be in the Bank?

Somebody with a better memory than me (not an especially high bar)?

True

Brach is impressing.

First 8 games i think we will start 6-2

I like your attitude.

I guess we don't get a Veterans Day game this year.  That's a long stretch in November without a home game.

My worst experience was a Waffle House in Jax Beach.  Yes it was late on a Thanksgiving night (we had flown in for a Ravens game that weekend), but it was seriously horrible.

Only 10 going to London? Was it by lottery?
