After risque years, Super Bowl commercials go warm and fuzzy (Watch them here) | Sports | ADN.com

After risque years, Super Bowl commercials go warm and fuzzy (Watch them here) | Sports | ADN.com

BY STUART ELLIOTT The New York Times February 2, 2014  http://www.adn.com/2014/02/02/3304246/after-risque-years-super-bowl.html#emlnl=Morning_Newsletter 

"Almost everyone seemed relieved that the first cold-weather Super Bowl played outdoors was not an ice bowl. As for the advertising extravaganza that took place during the game, it turned out to be a nice bowl." 

Most of the commercials that Fox broadcast nationally during Super Bowl XLVIII on Sunday sought to invoke fuzzy feelings that would warm the cockles of consumer hearts, if not MetLife Stadium. The television and social media audiences were exhorted repeatedly to forget their troubles and put on a smiley face.

Baltimore football championship seasons have always started in Westminster … so should we be worried?

Baltimore football championship seasons have always started in Westminster ... so should we be worried?


Many Carroll County residents are getting a case of nostalgic Super Bowl fever as they look forward to Sunday's AFC championship contest between the Baltimore Ravens and the New England Patriots.

For more than 120 years — since football debuted at then-Western Maryland College on Oct. 31, 1891 — football has been a part of the history of Carroll County.

Not to be overlooked is the fact that since July 1949, Baltimore football teams have held summer practice in Westminster. Names like Raymond Berry, Jim Parker, Art Donovan, Gino Marchetti, Lenny Moore, Eugene (Big Daddy) Lipscomb, Alan Ameche, and Wilbur (Weeb) Ewbank, just to mention a few, have become an important part of our Carroll County cultural history.

And yes, there is also that quarterback that was cut by the Pittsburg Steelers in 1956.

What was his name? Oh yeah, right. Johnny Unitas.

Unbelievable. According to an old history of the Baltimore Colts in my files, "Unitas was cut by… http://www.baltimoresun.com/explore/carroll/news/community/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0122-20120119,0,3298374.story

Baltimore football and Westminster have a long history together By Kevin Dayhoff


Certainly many people were disappointed when the Baltimore Ravens announced Dec. 2 that the team will not be returning to its McDaniel College summer training camp.

In a Carroll Eagle article that day on ExploreCarroll.com, Westminster Mayor Utz spoke for many, "It's almost a 50-year tradition that's being broken… That's the sad part about it."

The tradition and history of Baltimore football and Westminster first began when the newspaper announced ran on Feb. 11, 1949, "College Campus To Be Used By Colts … Coach Isbell Expects to Bring 55 Players to Train, Starting in July … Baltimore's football Colts are going to train at Western Maryland College this year."

Kevin Dayhoff – The Tentacle: Ravens Strike at Westminster’s Heart

Wednesday, December 7, 2011



Kevin E. Dayhoff

Last Friday the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League announced that the team will not be returning to McDaniel College in Westminster for summer camp, breaking a tradition that dates back to 1949.

[…]

The ExploreCarroll.com article also took note of the owner of the Raven’s, Steve Bisciotti, ties to Westminster. He was quoted as saying that “some of my best memories as a kid are my family's visits to the Colts' training camp in Westminster…”

More on that in a moment, first a little history.

Baltimore football in Carroll County is an intergenerational dynamic that goes back to just a few years after World War II.

Football in Baltimore can trace its lineage to the All-America Football Conference in 1946 and another lineage to the NFL in 1944, according to multiple media sources, my old childhood Baltimore Colts files, from research in 2004 when I found an excellent article on the net, “Life Before Indianapolis: A History of the Baltimore Colts.”
