Should the Baltimore Ravens start Troy Smith versus the Buffalo Bills this weekend? Seeing as how Steve McNair did not practice on Wednesday, and is questionable for this weekend, should the Baltimore Ravens start Troy Smith against the Buffalo Bills this weekend? The Buffalo Bills defense could still be reeling after that late defeat from the Cowboys on October 8th. A deeper question is should they start giving Troy Smith more reps since McNair is on his last leg? I still feel Kyle Boller is too erratic, but that's just my take.

How do you get to the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore? I have gotten many different responses from both people and websites on the easiest and fastest way to get to the Maryland Zoo. I am from Baltimore so I don't live too far, and I was wondering if anyone could share the best ways they have gone. I am bringing a child with me, but he is not my child, so although Park Heights Avenue seems like an easy enough way to go, it goes through some bad neighborhoods that I'm not comfortable driving through with a small child in tow. I have heard from some that taking 83 is best, and others say just go Northern Parkway. I am nervous about getting lost with this child in the car, and really all I want to know are people's experiences going different ways and which way they have found works best. Thanks so much for any and all help!

Can someone who knows a little more about the Baltimore situation help me out? Thanks!
