SPEAK OUT: Who Will You Root For in the NFL Playoffs?

Are the Ravens your team now?

Posted by Ryan McDermott, January 11, 2013 at 07:36 pm

The hearts of D.C. are broken and RGIII's knee might be too. But the playoff rolls on even if the Redskins don't.

So we want to know what team you'll be rooting for to win the Super Bowl, or if you even care at all. (I mean, hockey's back just in time.)

Will you be sporting purple to support the Maryland's other team, the Ravens? Who's your team now? Tell us in the comments.

I'm rooting for the Ravens. Joe Flacco went to my alma mater.

Love 'em or hate 'em, I'll be rooting for New England the rest of the way.

Rooting for the Ravens to go all the way to the Super bowl and give Ray Lewis a big giant retirement party, by the way of a huge parade in Charm City!!!!

Not having the Skins to root for is not unusual. Not having the Steelers to follow poses a rare problem. I wouldn't mind seeing another Manning—Brady matchup, but I think the Ravens are my team the rest of the way (w/ the Packers in the NFC).

I agree Sean....a Brady / Manning game would be a treat!

Considering the sorry state of sex education in schools today and parental reluctance for teaching…Read More anything but abstinence (if they teach anything at all), I'd suggest that the sale shouldn't even be questioned. When we decide education means more than just saying "no," when boys and men learn that it's as much their responsibility as women's to avoid unprotected sex and that violence against women is wrong, and when we teach consequences along with abstinence, then perhaps the pill won't be necessary. I don't see that day coming for a long, long time. Now, if the course "Our Whole Lives" taught by Unitarian Universalists became standard education in every school, perhaps we wouldn't need emergency contraception. Education (knowledge) is power.

Betsy, I agree with a lot of your post; many parents seem to feel that if they tell their children…Read More about sex, it's the same as telling them to go out and do it. I'm willing to bet that more young people get into trouble by ignorance than by knowledge. (and I haven't read the text that you mentioned but yes, education/knowledge IS power).

By all means, give them the pill and let them stop trouble in its tracks. From that moment forward,…Read More encourage them to find safer ways to have fun.
