    Upper 30's and rain. There might be some slipping and sliding and the Steelers need to get a win to reward the folks sitting outside in that weather.

    Loss of traction hurts us more than them. Better put the right cleats on. ;)

    Ray, why do you say the loss of traction hurts us more than them? I think we'd have a bit of an advantage watching them try to cover AB all over the field. I also think it helps to slow Dumerville's outside rush.

    I wonder how much the weather affects game attendance?

    Hopefully not much at all for a playoff game. Of course, if any Ravens fans were fortunate enough to score tickets, they are free to stay dry in Baltimore.

    Hopefully not much. I used to work outside loading airplanes and I would much rather it be 20F and dry as opposed to 39 and raining.

    If Ravens fans want tickets it wouldn't be hard. Take a look at the ticket exchange. Quite a few on there for sale. Reasonable prices too.
    I hope we don't have to see a bunch of them in the stands Saturday night!

    Well... I want to see at least a few of them sitting there with long faces, crying into their beers.

    This.
    I'd take 15 and snow over 35 and rain 8 days a week.

    LOL! I'd love to see eye liner cascading down Flacco's face! Also I hope the weather conditions will slow down Jones on kick returns. He could be the x factor.

    Bad weather should equal advantage Offenses . Used to be a common feeling that bad weather hurt the offense in todays NFL I don't think that rings true anymore . Defenses can't get physical with WR'S the way they used to they can't lay large hits on QB's the way they used to. So left with a mirror situation on Defense I see another advantage for Offenses.

    I am fighting the flu. I plan on sitting there in the rain. Probably be sick for a week afterwards, but I will be there if I can walk. It's the steelers and rat birds.

    So very happy that I won't be anywhere near you on Saturday night. People with the flu should stay home instead of potentially infecting those of us that don't have it. Hope you feel better.

    ME TOO! The flu is HORRIBLE this year! 17 people from my county got diagnosed in one day at the doctor's office here in town the other day! I always wonder how players manage to play with it and not infect the other players. It is extremely contagious.

    So stay home after spending money on tickets!

    Anybody afraid of getting infected with something from someone else should stay home

    It's not like he will have any problems getting rid of them. It's a sold out playoff game, he could turn a profit if he felt like it. Being that I live in Atlanta there's absolutely no chance that I'll cathc the flu from someone from the comfort of my couch. Besides I got a flu shot, but not everyone else has done so. In my opinion going out with the flu when unnecessary is selfish.
