A week after allowing tight end Brent Celek to collect a career-high 157 yards in a 24-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eages, the Ravens were much less hospitable to the New England Patriots' Rob Gronkowski. Gronkowski was limited to just two receptions for 21 yards. Although quarterback Tom Brady found wide receivers Wes Welker and Brandon Lloyd for 142 and 108 yards, respectively, the defense did an effective job keeping Gronkowski in check. Outside linebacker Albert McClellan said the Ravens wanted to make sure that Gronkowski, the NFL's record holder in yards and touchdowns for tight ends, did not get a free pass running his routes.

Despite allowing tight end Brent Celek to make eight receptions for a career-high 157 yards in the Philadelphia Eagles' 24-23 win Sunday, the Ravens say they're not panicking over the impending visit from Rob Gronkowski and the New England Patriots. “[A] lot of those things are simple coverage adjustments - whether one person reads this or you take this away or take that away,” inside linebacker Ray Lewis said Wednesday. “And last week is already in the past. I think this week, it's really about focusing on [quarterback Tom]

THIS WEEK at the Church of the Redeemer, I listened to the eulogies for Brent Gunts, the man who was Baltimore's Mr. Television during my youth. A little guy with a crewcut who wore snappy sport coats and bow ties, he came on the air, at least as I remember it, at 1 p.m., just after lunch Monday through Fridays, always on WBAL, the local TV station just down the street at 26th and Charles streets. His colleague and friend, Sydney King, mentioned how delightful local broadcasting was then, say 50 years ago. The national networks were always there, but hometown intimacy had our hearts.

For the first time in about a month-and-a-half, Brent Arrington got a good night's sleep. Since late May, Arrington has patiently waited for Mississippi Valley State to release him from his scholarship. His request was repeatedly denied, making what should have been a relaxing summer break an exceedingly stressful time for the Lansdowne grad. But last Friday, after his father spoke with someone from the NCAA and pleaded Arrington's case, the 6-foot-2, 182-pound guard was released from his scholarship.

In reviewing "Savage U,"  MTV's  sex advice show featuring Dan Savage, I predicted that it was going to be a culture-wars lightning rod at some point. The show debuted with an episode set at the University of Maryland April 3. Well, it didn't take long. On April 7, Brent Bozell, publisher of the right-wing media watchdog website NewsBusters went absolutely off the rails with a column attacking MTV and Savage as merchants of "smut. " Here's how Bozell started his column, and he was only warming up: MTV is now trying to lure young viewers with a saucy sex show in the “advice” category.

Chef Brent Shellem reflects: Being from Annapolis and growing up on the Chesapeake, rockfish is what we know. Just the thought of rockfish reminds me of fishing on the bay, and what better way to fish than with a cold beverage in your hand? I decided on Carolina Iced Tea because the Carolinas have great fishing as well, but mainly because my wife loves it and it pairs well with the citrus and the light nature of the fish.  Pokomoke rockfish Ingredients: •    8 ounces rockfish •    1 ounce extra-virgin olive oil •    Juice of 2 fresh oranges •    2 ounces vodka (3 if you're thirsty)

And the hits keep coming ... Yesterday, I wrote about complaints lodged by members of Sarah Palin's Alaska posse against HBO's "Game Change," a film about the 2008 GOP presidential campaign that is scheduled to premiere March 10. You should know that none of the people lodging the complaints, including columnists at Big Hollywood, have seen the film. They are basing their criticism on a HBO trailer for the docudrama -- and making wild leaps of speculation based on a couple of minutes of videotape.
