Today, 1:00 am, M&T Bank Stadium, the Baltimore Ravens kick off the 2009 season versus the Kansas City Chiefs after a highly successful 2008 campaign. Many of the key players return: Ray Lewis, Terrell Suggs, Haloti Ngata, and Ed Reed will lead one of the NFL's most proven defenses with a swift attack of organized chaos to rattle even the stoutest offense. Joe Flacco and Ray Rice will build on their successful rookie start with veterans Derek Mason and Todd Heap, but there will be one fixture in Baltimore football missing, the original Raven, the lone hold over from Cleveland, Matt Stover will not be the team's field goal specialist.
Baltimore fans need not whine about this team not getting respect by national media. They are well known and feared. They will compete with the best this year besides Pittsburgh facing Indianapolis here in Baltimore and New England.
Here's to the success and good health of our beloved Ravens. The dogs are in the house and they're growling!!!
