Gameday: Baltimore Ravens @ Atlanta Falcons 8/31

[Ravnet]

During the regular season I can post the starters, and a little insight on match ups and the game, but for now I have a little to do tonight and it is not the regular season. This is just a place for anyone to comment during the game if they feel like it.

Go Ravens!

[Ravnet]

What a dull game, atleast it is the last one until the first meaningfull one.

[Jesse Conroy]

Wow! a 55 yarder by Lloyd. Thats something!

[Slick]

haha beat me to it, that was a great kick

[Ravnet]

Well we end the preseason 1-3 and on a low note, I hope it doesn't carry over to the regular season.

this is when preseasons dont matter. the scores and all arent true representations of the play during regular season. preseason sorts out who makes the team and who doesnt, and is in no way a completely reliable indicator of how seasons turn out.

hmmm so we lost, big deal lol...i mean all the Super Bowl Favorites are having crappy pre-seasons, the Colts are also 1-3, the Patriots are 2-2, Ravens are 1-3, the only team that had a Good Pre-season was teh Chargers (3-1) so we can take some relief from that note

[Ravnet]

Thanks for clearing up for me that the pre-season is meaningless, if you have seen me post on these boards ever before you have seen that I think that the pre-season is useless and should be removed. Even still, losing your last 3 games going into the regular season doesn't exactly encourage a winning attitude. Saying that, the carry over may be 1% of what factors into the first quarter of the first regular season game, so whatever.

it may actually be better that we didnt demolish through the preseason. now theres more incentive for the starters to prove that it really is meaningless.

you saw McNair on the SideLines yesterday abd Suggs and all the Starters.....they were calm, relaxed and laughing and joking around.....a clear sign they arent worried, like Suggs said Last night in an interview i think during the 3rd Quarter..... the Veterans are just excited for the regular season to be here next week and not another pre-season game

[Ravnet]

Yeah I agree, I hate the pre season too.

[Jesse Conroy]

I mean we were 2-2 last preseason.. that's not good, and look how we turned out. I think that that this preseason is going to have no effect what-so-ever for this coming season. We have 12 teams that are going to wish the Ravens weren't on their schedule.
