Baltimore Ravens Incredible Playoff Game Win, Head to Indianapolis Next Week

The Baltimore Ravens beat the Patriots 33-14 in an incredible win, making Baltimore PROUD!
From the first seconds when Ray Rice ran 83 yards to score a touchdown on the first drive to the amazing defensive plays forcing turnovers, the Ravens were there to WIN.
It feels like 2001 all over again, and that is GREAT.
The underdogs that no one expected to win, a wildcard into the playoffs, the misfit team that you wonder what they can do.
And that’s just how the Baltimore Ravens like it.
Going into Indianapolis to play the Colts as the clear underdogs, against a nearly perfect 2009 team, a team we have not beaten since 2002, the odds are stacked against us. And that is where the excitement comes alive for our players and our city.
Expect Baltimore to be purpled-up as we get together behind our Ravens and support their playoff run.
Times like these are the ones that show just how exciting, fun, and wonderful it is to live in Baltimore!
GO RAVENS!
Northrup Grumman Moving Headquarters to Washington, DC Area Should Help Baltimore Housing Market

The Los Angeles Times reported today that Northrup Grumman is moving its Headquarters to the Washington, DC area.
This could mean a lot of jobs in the Maryland/DC/Virginia area, if current employees don’t want to move across the country.
They will be scouting locations in all three states before deciding where to plant their roots, which will happen by summer of 2011.
Should they choose to be in Maryland or even the northern part of DC, this could be a fanastic for the Baltimore real estate market in 2011.
Why?
Washington, DC, the Potomac, and the surrounding areas are very expensive places to live. Now, coming from Los Angeles, it might not be as much of a shock, but with MARC trains and easy commutes from Baltimore to the DC area, living in Baltimore is a great option for those employees who will be working for them.
So, welcome, Northrup Grumman!
