Weird day.

I'm glad I'm so sick and hopped up on Coricidin and cough meds that I slept through the Ravens game in a fog.  Sounds like they did, too.

Wish I had had some as well.

Cutler stripped, Lions recover for another TD.

I haven't been watching the whole game, but I think the Bears might have more giveaways than first downs.

Yeah, that game was a complete shit show.
and the horse you rode in on

Heh.

QuoteBaltimore and Buffalo rank as the only metropolitan areas with a National Football League franchise that don't also have a Fortune 500 company within their boundaries, according to a release from Maryland Business for Responsive Government.
Maryland has four Fortune 500 companies and they are all based in Bethesda: No.   59 Lockheed Martin, No. 195 Coventry Health Care, No. 230 Marriott International and No. 469 Host Hotels and Resorts.
Jerry Wit, chairman of the nonprofit business group, said the Buffalo connection reflected poorly on Baltimore.
"Does it make you feel secure and proud to share this distinction with the city of Buffalo?" Wit said in a press release. "Does anyone working or living in Baltimore really want to be compared to Buffalo?"
Baltimore has more than 600,000 residents. In comparison, similarly-sized NFL cities with Fortune 500 companies include Atlanta (11), Charlotte (5) and Nashville (2), among others.
In the past seven years, Maryland has lost nine Fortune 500 companies while neighboring Virginia has improved from 17 to 27 Fortune 500 companies, according to MBRG.
Constellation Energy was Baltimore's sole representative on the 2012 Fortune 500 list, but was acquired by Chicago's Exelon Corp. for $7.9 billion in March of last year.

No mention of Green Bay, which I am guessing didn't make the cut as a "metropolitan area".  :P

Wyoming might have some Fortune 5000 companies.

Heh.  Edelman got smoked on that play.
Yeah.  Nice heads-up play by the Falcons using the fact he was engaged to take a cheapshot.

Actually, it is a metropolitan area.  No idea what Fortune 500 company is based there.

Nice TD pass.  If they hadn't been dumb earlier and just kicked the FG, they would have the lead now.
