I was just reminiscing about the Denver NFL network game with my buddy just yesterday. That was the perfect football night. It was cool, the roof open and Mario and the rest of the Texans were on fire. So were we fans!...That was the best.

I'm with you 100%.

Having the roof open with the temp over 85 degrees reminds me of a quote from Hoosiers...

"Look, mister, there's... two kinds of dumb, uh... guy that gets naked and runs out in the snow and barks at the moon, and, uh, guy who does the same thing in my living room. First one don't matter, the second one you're kinda forced to deal with. "

Confirmed by UH. The game will be in Dallas.

DAMN! I hit all the sites and there was nothing at the time. Thanks for getting back on that G.

Exact time and stadium still TBD. It might be at SMU on Friday night.

**gwallaia** · 09-10-2008

Hold The Phone of the "official" announcement.

Well, you gotta do what you gotta do. I seems like the prudent thing to do. That would really cause problems for the fans worst-case.

I think Toro could fare better in a hurricane than a Raven.

**Thorn** · 09-10-2008

I am now officially more worried about Ike than I am about the Ravens.

**ObsiWan** · 09-10-2008

IS there any better place to be?

I bet they move this game to Monday night. If Ike hits land on Saturday, it'll still be blowing on Sunday. I'd still try to attend, but I know the cheese and wine crowd probably couldn't make it.

Bob McNair says everything is still TBD. They are waiting and seeing.

My fiancee hates it when I use the phrase "We'll see". I finally understand why. Go figure that the one game I buy tickets to is being threatened by a hurricane.

Thanks, TC. I was wondering what the team's official stance would be at this point.

**gtexan02** · 09-10-2008

If they move it, I hope its to San Antonio. I'd love it to be in Baltimore so I could attend, but I don't want to lose our hom efield advantage

I doubt they will move it. If anything they will push it back to Monday, IMO.
