Van Pelt's Bawlmer moment

It appeared no one was happier about the Ravens' first-round pick than Scott Van Pelt. Why is that?

It seems there is something about the way you -- well, he -- can say Joe Flacco's name while affecting a Baltimore accent that sounds as if it came straight out of Hairspray. Which he did several times during Saturday night's SportsCenter telecasts.

Something tells me that while it may be fun to hear Mr. Van Pelt use it with a wink in his eye while covering the draft for SportsCenter, hearing Keith Mills say it EVERY Monday will cause some people (or at least me) to be tempted to drive into a light pole during the morning commute.

Big Daddy, that's hysterical. I think Keith Mills has the heaviest Baltimore accent I've ever heard from someone in the media. It truly is incredible.

That is why I was hoping we could have drafted Kentwan BALMER. Imagine what Van Pelt would do with that and how it would look on the back of a Ravens jersey. Well, we could always trade with Nolan..
