Shirtless Ravens Fan Celebrates By Jumping Off Building Ledge, Landing In Tree, Falling Out Of Tree
There was certainly more idiotic revelry taking place in the Federal Hill section of Baltimore last night, but a consolation prize may be in order for this genius. I mean, what must this person have been thinking, filming a ridiculous moment like that vertically on a smart phone?...

It Took A Blackout To Show You How Truly Useless NFL Broadcasters Are. Let's Blow Up The Studio.
I avoided the pregame shows yesterday. This isn't unusual. I never watch pregame shows for the same reason YOU never watch pregame shows. I showed up at my friend's house just as they were getting ready for Alicia Keys to spend eight minutes doing a national anthem/"Fallin'"/Jazz odyssey medley. And...

A Brief Reminder From Last Night's Celebration In Baltimore: Don't Hang On Street Signs, Idiots
Baltimore's Federal Hill raged in "mostly peaceful" celebrations last night, with only one recorded near broken back on the corner of East Cross Street and This Seemed Like A Really Good Idea Five Minutes Ago Boulevard....

For The Fourth Straight Year, The Super Bowl Champs Played In The Eagles' Home Opener
These prophetic words were written way back in September, before the Eagles' Week 2 home opener at Lincoln Financial Field:...

The Best And Most Surreal Photographs From The Power Outage At The Superdome
The power outage tonight in the Superdome created 34 minutes of awkward television and some truly dreamlike sports photography. We've collected the best from the Associated Press and Getty. Top photo by Evan Vucci/AP....

Baltimore 34, San Francisco 31: Your Super Bowl 47 GIF Roundup
The Baltimore Ravens outlasted the 49ers in a thrilling Super Bowl that looked all but over after the first half. Then the lights went out and the Ravens stopped pressing deep and the 49ers capitalized on some poor punting and suddenly we had a football game. In the end, the Ravens hung on thanks t...

Jim Harbaugh Tantrum GIF: Version 2,745
A Jim Harbaugh GIF could almost serve as the basis for an entirely new generation of Mad Libs. "In the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl against (noun), Jim Harbaugh (verb) like a little fucking (noun) after the 49ers (verb)."...

This Is More Or Less What Happened To The Ravens In The Third Quarter
Here's how the Ravens played in the third: A long Jacoby Jones touchdown return—bad news for the 49ers, obviously—a 34-minute power outage, punt, punt, Haloti Ngata knee sprain (which has him doubtful to return), fumble, Jacoby Jones getting enormously jacked up by Delanie Walker on a kick return. ...

The Lights Went Out In The Superdome
What a weird Super Bowl this has been. The Ravens are all over the 49ers, but it's been a handful of big plays rather than methodical domination so it almost feels like San Francisco is still in it. A fake field goal, a kickoff return, a 56-yard tumbling bomb of a touchdown, an exploding guitar an...

Jacoby Jones Just Returned The Opening Kickoff Of The Second Half 109 Yards For A Touchdown
According to CBS that is an NFL record. The Ravens won the opening coin toss and deferred to the second half. The decision allowed Jones to break an NFL record and toss his hat in the ring for Super Bowl MVP alongside Joe Flacco. NFL record and two pretty exciting touchdowns? We like his chances. ...

The Ravens Dig The Deep Ball: Joe Flacco And Jacoby Jones Connect For The Play Of The Super Bowl (So Far)
We've previously mentioned Baltimore's affinity for the deep ball and here is Joe Flacco, once again, successfully going long. He may have underthrown it just a bit (give him a break though, he did throw it 50 yards downfield), but Jacoby Jones helped his quarterback out. He caught the ball as h...

Here's The All-22 Footage Of That Mind-Boggling Fake Field Goal
Baltimore has three less points than it otherwise would right now because John Harbaugh got greedy (or went briefly insane) and tried this fake field goal run for a first down on 4th and 9. It would have been a 32-yard attempt for a kicker that made 30 of 33 field goal attempts this season and at...

Cary Williams Shoved An Official And Got Away With It
In Major League Baseball making contact with an ump will get you a suspension. The same goes for NBA players who dare touch a ref (just ask Rajon Rondo). In the NFL, though—at least in the Super Bowl—shoving a ref won't even earn you a penalty. Here's Ravens defensive back Cary Williams doing just ...

LaMichael James Pulled Off An Awesome Spin Move And Then Oooof
LaMichael James had 27 carries in the regular season, because Jim Harbaugh hates rookies, and because the 49ers were pretty well stocked in the backfield. But tonight, Harbaugh loosened up a bit, giving James the chance of a lifetime—an opportunity to break free in the Super Bowl. It worked great f...

This Harbaugh Brothers Split Screen Is The Harbaughiest Split Screen Possible
Watch as brothers Jim and John react to the same play—a third down sack of Joe Flacco midway through the first quarter—with characteristically appropriate Harbaugh emotion. Jim: intensity bordering on insanity, and John: mild disappointment. Can you imagine how their father is reacting? Pretty craz...

Here Are The Kids From The Sandy Hook Elementary School Choir Singing "America The Beautiful"
Tonight's pregame ended with Jennifer Hudson and the Sandy Hook Elementary School Choir singing "America the Beautiful" directly prior to Alicia Keys's "Star-Spangled Banner." The kids had quite a large stadium to fill and did the job admirably. Watch it again to get the taste of all the weird Sup...

Your Cast Of Characters For Tonight's <em>Super Bowl</em> Movie
More than any sporting event this side of Air Bud, the Super Bowl is where we go for cinematic, overproduced sports theater. CBS will have 62 cameras on hand, bringing sweeping panoramas, close-ups, high-definition snot-rockets—everything you could want from a staged drama, except live and unscripte...

Pro Football Hall Of Fame Calls Up Sapp, Parcells, Ogden, Allen and Carter
The NFL's next Hall of Fame class, just announced, has a few dudes the TV made famous. There's Bill Parcells, who made a coaching career of winning two Super Bowls with the Giants and then convincing other teams believe he might ever do it again; Cris* Carter, who just proved that even Jerry Rice Li...

If Your Super Bowl Party Doesn't Have A Grid Pool, You're Just Getting Fatter And Watching Commercials
The first time I heard a grid pool described, my father was coming home with a pocketful of bills he'd just won down at his favorite watering hole. Essentially you make a 10-by-10 grid, strip numbers vertically and horizontally, buy a square, and if the last digit of the score matches your square, y...

The Ravens Kicking Coach Is Already Mayor Of One New Jersey Town, Wants To Be Governor
Randy Brown has been the mayor of Evesham Township in New Jersey since 2007, and the Baltimore Ravens kicking coach since 2008. Brown was once kicking coach of the Chicago Bears, a consultant with the Eagles, and has run a kicking camp. In his tenure with the Ravens, punter Sam Koch has set and beat...
