Fat fingers strike! Sorry!

I loved that team! I also loved Chuck and Brooks on TV, they always made me feel I was amongst friends. Just genuinely great at their jobs and great people.

I go to podcasts for my Ravens content. Great ones from our own RSR family: Cole Jackson and Michael Crawford have “Two Guys Watching Football.” TL just launched one called “The Front Office.” And Ken McCusick’s “Filmstudy” is the classic.

The Ravens own podcast is sometimes good too. Filmstudy has been on it, and they will often get players as guests.

Brooks always called Chuck Charlie. He also was known to bungle names. I can't remember who it was but there was a player whose name he would get right like one out of ten times so you knew he knew how to correctly say it but then he would revert back to the wrong pronunciation.

Love the Filmstudy podcast. Ken is a gift to us Ravens fans. The amount of work he puts in breaking games and individual performances down I can't even imagine. But I'm grateful and thankful for it.

I also went through years of PTSD with that song. What cured me was watching “The Birdcage.” Now when I hear it, I only think of Gene Hackman in a dress.

Been meaning to give Cole's pod a listen, keep Forgetting. I'll knock it out this week

Will never forget during Colt games (maybe Orioles also) Tom Davis doing the traffic report at Memorial stadium. "Heavy traffic from Loch Raven Blvd down to the Alemeda" some things just stick with you!!

Was Tom Davis even around when the Colts were here?

Yes he was, unfortunately this was the only thing I could find where it has Tom Davis reporting on a Colt game. He did traffic, pre-game & post game commentary on WCBM for the Baltimore Colts.

That player was Juan Beniquez. Or BENNY-kez. Or Ben-EH-kwez. Like ravenfever said... some things just stick with you.

God I love Brooksie.

The downside open door on the plane are at the seats that my ex and I had been sitting in for the game. At the time of the crash we were going to our Colts Corral bus for the ride back home.
