FINAL CALL. Seeing a Ravens' super-fan of 40 years have to photo and blog pictures of himself wearing a Skins jersey in Baltimore to work is worth this. We need as many people to enter as possible. Takes 2 mins. Link and group name is below. Thanks all!
vs.
The blogger for SBNation's Ravens' blog and I were trash-talking about whose city knows more about college basketball. It's pretty clear it's DC given all the big b-ball schools in our area. Well, he disagrees and now we have a bet. All the members of his blog versus all the Hogs Haven bloggers via NCAA brackets. The loser of this contest has to wear the opposing team's NFL jersey all day (including work). Please Hogs Haven...don't let me down on this one. Getting laid off work in a Matt Stover jersey will only end in me jumping off the American Legion Bridge.
The Comcast SportsNet has a bracketology contest that allows us to create groups, so we did that. I just created my account and it's easy....and you don't have to enter your address or any of that BS. When you create your account, click the "Interact" tab up top, then click "Join a Public Group"...search for "hogs" and you'll see the link to click "Hogs Haven." Their group is named the 'Baltimore Beatdown.' "Beatdown"...that's what Ray Lewis likes to do to innocent people outside Atlanta clubs. Anyway....
NOTE: Comcast SporstsNet is giving away a 42" Sony HDTV, a Wii, and Year supply of Vitamin water as the top 3 prizes in the overall contest of all groups and contestants. So decent stuff. This bracket emails you reminders to do your picks, so no excuses on that. Word.
CLICK HERE TO ENTER NOW....and add group name 'Hogs Haven'.
ps - The Ravens fans are fighting back on me on their bracket post...

Way too many directions
for a Redskins fan to follow!
Hey Deadskins fans, it’ Rexx, lead blogger over at Baltimore Beatdown, you know, the winning team in Maryland, your Baltimore Ravens?
Anyway, me and your team’s blogger, Kevin,…what, oh okay, I’ll slow down for you Marion (“the bitch framed me”) Barry lovers. We are having a contest to see which teams fans know how to pick the NCAA Men’s Hoops Tourney better. Yeah, you guys might have some big teams closer to you, but more people from Baltimore probably went to College Park than the DC folks, who probably either never graduated or went straight to work at KFC.
Us Ravens fans would rather jump off the Chesa[peake Bay Bridge than have t wear a Redskins jersey for the day, and the rest of the Beatdown’s followers will probably join me in the leap. However, if you lose you get to wear the jersey of the best team in Maryland, you know the one that put a “Baltimore Beatdown” on you in December?
Anyway, good luck (NOT!) and by the way, Ed Reed sends his regards.
Just funning ya, hon!

The Bay Bridge...
is more DC than Baltimore. There’s a reason your city is all tunnels…it’s visual herpes.

I would think
that anybody who’s watched The Wire would be scared to set foot in Bal’more.

Could be good for laughs.
Sure, I’m in. Watching Philly Lite go down in flames is always good for some chuckles.
Slug
I don't think this one's got the distance Rexxy
And it’s Popeyes, not KFC.
When you’re finished picking your team based on jersey colors and cutest coach, let me know what size you are. I have a Danny Wuerffel jersey waiting for you.
Thinking about it
But wouldn’t it be too unfair
UNC, Duke, Wake.. where the ACC really matters
Hmmmm…should we beat up on poor Bal’more
no, its not unfair
The only thing thats unfair is that when the trash trucks come every week, they drive straight to Baltimore to unload.

Slug is too much
Too cool, a mayflower van driving away in the early 80s…remember it well.
Notice the middle of the night, say 2am
Who is your favorite Raven player, Hogs?
Gotta make sure to get the right Jersey for you guys ironed and ready to be worn for a day by the dirty skins. And I bet once that 24 hours is up of you wearing the best looking jersey in the league, you will strip down faster than Ed Reed stripping Clintin Portis.
Goodluck, Sienna, Radford, and Cleveland State are my sleepers. Watch out.
You have to hate losing more than you love winning.
Oh man
I gotta make sure I tell Rexx I want full pictures…the loser has to update the blog every hour with a picture of that person in the jersey wherever he is! This is gonna be awesome!
Rexx you’re taking the Light Rail to work.
