There's something to be said about the Baltimore region's pre-game ritual for the Baltimore Hawks. Before each and every game, there is clearly a stench coming from the city of Baltimore, and it's not the best smell.
If the team was named the Baltimore Chickens, then the city would smell fantastic, but unfortunately it's not. Instead, the city smells like dead bird, or more specifically, Hawk. Before every game, the Hawk population in the United States of America decreases by a good amount. In fact, the city is very much against this ritual, for the dangers of extinction of the hawk species.
Baltimore residents, or any fan for that matter, partake in an event where they try to kill a hawk by any means necessary. This can be a difficult task, unless you have access to some kind of black market bird showcase. In any case, Baltimore fans murder hawks as a sacrifice to the NSFL Gods, in order to better the team's chances of victory. Obviously, this doesn't always work out, as you might have seen from the result of this season for the Hawks.
How many hawks are there that fans can even find that many? Who's to say, really? Maybe some people sacrifice another bird, like a turkey or chicken, because who the fuck wants to break the law and kill hawks for a football team? I guess fans can be crazy, so there's your answer.
