Thanks, LG, for asking if I am well. I am no worse off than most of the living creatures who are my neighbors, or were until their fate overcame them.

The Ravens serve a great if troubled Democratic city; the Colts have moved to a GOP state, once governed by a homophobic ultra-Catholic (i.e. taking the worst of right-wing Catholicism with him as he chose the company of evangelical extremists, now playing a Machiavellian game in DC), even if their city is a Dem stronghold. Those matters alone might matter to Catholics, as Catholics. Then, the name of the one is inspired by a brutal, competitive business, so-called sport, based on animal abuse, the other by the poetry of a distinguished US writer. And since competitiveness is the root of all moral evil, one may mention that the men called Colts and Ravens are just overpaid mercenaries good at pointless competition. These are all great moral/ethical issues that might engage any Catholic. Or have they no place in your Catholic ghetto?
