Curse of the Ravens? LOL!

Ok, for some trivia. Who was the last team to play at the Superdome before Katrina?

AND who's game against Houston has to be moved to Monday night because of Ike?

That's right...the RAVENS!

Cute.

Reliant Stadium has sustained enough damage to postpone the game. The game won't be played in Houston this week, but hopefully it will be played somewhere this week.

The hurricanes and the devastion are not funny; it's called situational irony, which may be seen as "humorous" to those of us who dont like the Ravens. BTW, I was not the one to bring this up; heard it on a morning football talk show. Even Raven found it "cute."

No, it's not funny in any manner.

It's ironic maybe, but not funny.

They're also the team that broke Michael Vick's leg and Cleveland's hearts too if that helps to go towards funny?

FWIW, I appreciate the humor.

I'm still trying to figure out how anyone could be offended.

It would take an enormous stretch, and twist.IMO

Well, by definition it's not irony at all. It's a coincidence. Ironic would be if The ravens were the last team to play before the worlds population of Ravens were exterminated.

Too many times people confuse irony and coincidence.
