It’s Raining in Baltimore

One of the lesser-known jewels in discography of the Counting Crows is It’s Raining Baltimore. Eternally famous for the upbeat Accidentally in Love, yes, the song from Shrek, It’s Raining in Baltimore is a peaceful and mellow song that doesn’t have much of a goal.

Superbowl Sunday is finally here, ladies and gentlemen! That’s right: your full assortment of artery-clogging foods, endless soda and beer, friendly betting, and, of course, terrific football between two offensive powerhouses in the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts.

Despite being down eleven points midway through the second quarter, the Colts defeated the “Cinderella” New York Jets 30-17 on the back of second year receiver Pierre Garcon who finished the game with 151 yards and a touchdown. The Saints advanced on a Lawrence Tynes-esque overtime game winning field goal by second year pro Garrett Hartley, capitalizing on a crucial and unnecessary interception by Brett Favre in the closing seconds of regulation.
