Ravens Hold On After Power Outage; East Face Tough Game On Friday

Knocking out the lights in New Orleans nearly knocked out the Baltimore Ravens.

However, Baltimore’s Raven caught fire in the postseason and that is why they won it all on Super Bowl Sunday.

Although Baltimore nearly collapsed after a lighting malfunction in the stadium caused delay for 35 minutes. Following the delay, it seemed like Baltimore (14-6) had lost their momentum and composure in the third quarter. Sustaining two drives for two field goals in the fourth quarter really showed their mental toughness, winning 34-31 over San Francisco.

Opinion

Listen To Life
Dr. Joey Faucette
Listen To Life

Do you practice conversation generosity?
   Have you ever noticed how some people do all the talking?  And that they’re usually the ones who are a little negative?
   And how other people are really good listeners?  And that they’re more often the ones who when they speak have something positive to say?
   I was in a room recently in which a man took all the air out of the room by talking only about himself.  I watched while other people tried to be polite and listen, or gently change the subject to include others in the conversation.  They changed their body language to move away from the person and some just left the room.

Outdoor Truths
I’m still not sure about this whole global warming thing, but I do know that the winters where I live are not as cold and snowy as they used to be. I can remember the days when you could always count on hunting in the snow on Thanksgiving Day. Now there’s no guarantee that you’ll even have a measurable amount of snow at any time during the winter season. The same goes for February. The last couple of days have warmed up considerably and our good weather folks are predicting temperatures in the 70’s tomorrow. If it’s even close, we’ll think that spring has sprung.
