I live 20 miles north of Baltimore but I work in DC. Well, actually northern VA, but it's easier to just say DC, since it's at Reagan National. My company also has business interests in Pittsburgh, and today I got a call from a woman who works in one of our departments in Pittsburgh, who needed me to answer a question. Before I did, I asked her how she felt about Dixon being named the starter.

Twenty minutes later, she finally got around to asking me that question she originally called about.....after I reminded her about it. :drink:

Man, you just gotta love football season!

With a passion.

Also gotta love a woman who can talk football for 20 minutes and then forget why she called.

She's no football dummy, that's for sure. She talked about the Pouncey/Hartwig situation for like 6-7 minutes. She thinks it was not such a good idea to let Hartwig go and let Pouncey be the man all season long.

20 miles North of Balto but work in DC? that is a long commute.

I lived in Baltimore in the late 90's and had to commute to Westminster and I hated that drive.

67 miles one-way. I also worked in Philly for seven years. That was 63 miles one-way.

Beats unemployment. :D

Anyways, cool story.

95 to MD 295 to I-395 across DC most of the time. Sometimes 95 all the way to I-495 (still have to get on MD 295), or I-97 to MD Rt. 50 (also to MD 295) if traffic is a nightmare. And trust me, DC traffic is nightmarish on a good day.
