http://bsun.md/1M7Y0x3 New projects suggest sports and entertainment zone is taking root Game Game, a Warner Street sports bar, is near Horseshore Casino and M&T Bank Stadium. (Colby Ware / BALTIMORE SUN) By Natalie Sherman Baltimore Suncontact the reporter Kevin Plank Edward L. Reisinger III MARC Train After almost not opening, a new bar near the casino points the way a new entertainment zone. Jimmy Trujillo had two chances to walk away from Warner Street. First, the Washington investors who drafted the nightclub consultant and designer to find a site for a club near the new Horseshoe Casino Baltimore backed out. Then, last December, the city put off his bid for an entertainment license. The 50-year-old Sparks businessman decided the location — blocks from the casino and M&T Bank Stadium — was too good to give up. In May, he opened Game, a sports bar at 1400 Warner St., filling what would have been a dance floor with ping pong tables and other games. And last week the city’s zoning board finally approved the entertainment license for Game, giving Trujillo the go-ahead to host DJs and live acts at the 750-person bar. Horseshoe still finding place in crowded market Horseshoe still finding place in crowded market Trujillo’s persistence shows the much-discussed sports and entertainment district south of the city’s stadiums may be starting to bud, despite initial hesitance by the city to approve some plans. In addition to Game, the proposed Hammerjacks club and concert venue is ready to move forward, said Kevin Butler of the Hammerjacks Entertainment Group. The local group hopes to start construction in the next several...

By: Corey Johns: All of the detractors say the same thing: the Ravens don’t have enough at receiver and don’t have enough explosiveness to win a Super Bowl. And it does not matter one bit. Being an air-it-our team that puts up huge points with huge yardage totals just is not the Ravens style, it’s not Baltimore’s style. We’re hard-nosed, blue-collar people who scrap and work hard for everything we do and football is no different. What led to both Super Bowls the Ravens won? It was not a prolific offense; it was a tough as nails defense and a grind-it-out offense that just got the job done. Very few franchises have been as successful as the Baltimore Ravens since 2008 when the John Harbaugh and Joe Flacco era began. Despite the limited number of explosive receivers – no Calvin Johnson or Julio Jones types – the Ravens still always find a way to move the ball and get the job done as much as they need. They understand that a one-point win is the same thing as a 21-point blowout and there is no reason to believe they won’t win a bunch of games again this year. Sure, wide receiver may not look that sexy in comparison to what other teams have, but the overall roster looks like the best in the league. The simple fact that players like DeAngelo Tyson, Jah Reid, Asa Jackson, and Fitzgerald Toussaint were released during final cut downs just shows how deep this year’s squad is. It might even be the best roster the Ravens have ever had. Flacco does not put...
