NFL Puts Joe Flacco Poster on Broncos Stadium, Sports Anchor Goes Vandal...

From Twitter
Uh....who thought this was a good idea?

As most of you insane NFL folks know, kickoff is but nearly a week away. And the hype, if it hasn't already begun, is about to kick in full-throttle.

With that in mind, we give you the marquee to your right, featuring last years Super Bowl MVP, Joe Flacco of the champs, the Baltimore Ravens.

Problem with that: The game is in Denver. Against the Broncos, the team Flacco's Ravens beat to get to the Super Bowl.

Now normally, or at least over the past couple seasons, the NFL is having their defending champs kick off the season with the celebratory 1st game at home. However, the NFL didn't figure in that in Baltimore, the Orioles (baseball team) already had a game scheduled for the same night. And for those of you who've never been to Baltimore, the two stadiums, they are next to each other.

The NFL asked the Orioles to reschedule and much to the dismay of several NFL writers, the baseball team said no. The NFL was late to the party, they should reschedule.

So the game is in Denver Thursday night. Our guess is the Broncos, or at least their fans, probably won't take too kindly to that.

Denver fans don't like it...
No sir, they don't like it one bit...

And CBS Denver sports guy Vic Lombardi took to the streets to protest on his own...
