Hay Kendra,
They won but the outage totally changed the momentum of the game.  Just
imagine how many complaints and protests there would have been if they
hadn't won.  Everyone would be screaming that the outage gave the other team
an unfair advantage and they were allowed to regroup.  I personally didn't
care who won but I am glad the team that did, did or the game would be
shrouded in controversy and it would have been a tainted win in many minds.
Unfair to the players for sure
Bill

I said after the power went out and got restored that if Baltimore could
march through a thunderstorm, they could march through a power outige. I was
proven right when my Ravens won. Go Ravens!!!
