Ravens-Bears game time changed due to weather

- Sunday's game between the Baltimore Ravens and Chicago Bears has been pushed back to 4:15 p.m. (et) due to the threat of a heavy snowstorm in the northeast portion of the country.

The City of Baltimore recommended the change, and the Ravens made an official request to the NFL, which approved the change Friday. The game had originally been slated for 1 p.m. (et).

Forecasts have Baltimore receiving 10-to-20 inches of snow this weekend

Global Warming Jack :142smilie

when I was in high school, in Columbia, Maryland, we played ice hockey the entire winter on the lake, from about this time in December until early March. The lake stayed frozen the entire time and solid enough to drive cars on it. That lake hasn't been frozen enough to walk on for over 30 years. SOMETHING has changed. :shrug:

Bears' flight to Baltimore canceled

The Chicago Bears had hoped to get to Baltimore before the snowstorm arrived Friday but the team did not make it before its flight was canceled, according to the team's Web site. The team is scheduled to play the Ravens Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Web site says the team boarded its charter flight at O'Hare Airport late Friday but sat on the plane for two hours before it was canceled. The team's site says it will attempt to fly to Baltimore late Saturday.
The Ravens moved the originally scheduled 1 p.m. game to 4:15 p.m. Sunday in hopes of having more time to remove snow from the stadium and its parking lots. About 700 workers are staying at the stadium this weekend to remove the snow.
