Ravens bump WrestleMania special
Wrestling fans in the Baltimore area who are expecting see “The Game” tonight on television will find “a game” instead, as Triple H and his fellow WWE superstars have been sacked by the Ravens.
NBC’s WrestleMania XXV special – a one-hour show featuring highlights of last April’s pay-per-view extravaganza set to music – is being pre-empted on Ch. 11 by the Ravens-Carolina Panthers preseason football game.
Personally, I’m not too bent out of shape about it. I attended WrestleMania XXV in Houston and I also own the DVD, so I don’t feel like I’m really missing anything. With that being said, however, this does give me one more reason to hate exhibition games.

There are few things in life I'm more indifferent to than NFL preseason games.

I got tickets to last Monday's Ravens-Jets preseason game and missed covering ROH on HDnet for prowrestling.net because of it. Never in my life have I been more bored at a sporting event (though if I had gone to a live Raw lately...).
