Off the top of my head, that sort of invasion would NEVER occur in Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago, Philly, New England, Denver or at the New York (Giants). Pittsburgh plays in Baltimore every year, and I don't recall Ravens fans ever surrendering their home field advantage to the enemy the way we did tonight. I'm more embarrased by our no-show fans than by our team's performance tonight, and that's saying something.

Do I dare say that ticket prices have risen so much that true fans can't afford them. Instead, we have these corporate types, who buy them as a symbol of their wealth and willingly give these tickets up when the game becomes an inconvenience?
And I agree on your comment about Kornheiser...I used to be a huge fan of his until he blew up at the critcisism he got after his first MNF outing.
