We should have video of Flacco's appearance on The Sun website by 7:30 or 8 p.m. So, please stop back. Here's part of the release from CBS: Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco, MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, talks about his team thrilling victory Sunday night over the San Francisco 49ers when he visits the LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN, Monday, Feb. 4 (11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT)

At Glory Days Grille in Pasadena, the crowd erupted in cheers and chants as the Ravens kicked off with four seconds remaining in Super Bowl XLVII and the clock wound down to give Baltimore its second NFL championship. "I told him, I was worried when it was 28-13," said Ginger Szydlowski, motioning to her partner at the bar. Al Szydlowski laughed. "I was never worried," he said. That may have been a slight exaggeration. Throughout the evening, the bar and restaurant went from jubilant to solemn, to people on the edge of their seats to leaping out of their chairs.

NEW ORLEANS -- The vision has consumed some of them for almost a decade. During their most painful moments as Ravens, they wondered if it would ever happen, if they would ever experience a moment that their leader has spoken of so many times. Linebacker Ray Lewis is the only Ravens player qualified to talk about it. Twelve years ago, he stood on the field at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla., and lifted the Lombardi Trophy as confetti rained down on the Super Bowl champions.

No. 11 North Carolina @No. 10 Maryland Tonight, 8:30 TV: Comcast SportsNet The 10th-ranked Maryland women's basketball team was near the end of practice Saturday when starting forward Tierney Pfirman collided knee-to-knee with a scout player and collapsed in considerable pain. Athletic trainers and coach Brenda Frese tended to Pfirman as she lay on the court with an injury later revealed to be a dislocated right kneecap. Then roughly an hour later, the Terps boarded a bus to the airport for a flight to Atlanta to play a game the next day against Georgia Tech.

J. Patrick's Pub, the Locust Point Irish bar loved for its authentic feel and live music, will close after New Year's Eve, according to this Baltimore Business Journal report . The building, located at 1371 Andre St., will be placed on an auction block Jan. 10, according to the report. The bar's contents and liquor license, along with the building itself, will be open to bidding. The BBJ's Jack Lambert also writes that there are potential buyers along the East Coast, and they could be interested in keeping it an Irish pub. Joseph Patrick Byrne, who died in July, opened J. Patrick's Pub in 1987.

Tonight's women's basketball game between Maryland and Delaware is a sellout, according to a tweet from Kevin Tresolini, the outstanding University of Delaware beat writer for The (Wilmington, Del.) News Journal. So, if you were planning to make the drive up I-95 and buy tickets at the gate, you're out of luck. The Bob Carpenter Center holds 5,000 people, and the return of All-American first-team pick Elena Delle Donne tonight probably helped the Blue Hens sell out. Playing a Top 10 team in the No. 9 Terps didn't hurt.

John Carroll's No. 8 boys basketball team used a 32-0 run in the third quarter to beat Hilo (Hawaii), 69-26, in Wednesday's opening round of the Iolani Classic in Honolulu. The Patriots (9-3) were led by Kimbal Mackenzie with a game-high 15 points. Kamuela Patnaude had seven for the Vikings. Eleven Patriots scored, including Rodney Elliott and Trystan Pratapas with 11 points each. John Carroll is headed for an all-Maryland showdown in tonight's second-round game at 11:30.

Tonight at 11:59 p.m. is the deadline for the Orioles to tender contracts to their 14 players that are arbitration eligible. What that means in simpler, non-baseball language is that the Orioles have 14 players who are under team control, but have compiled at least three years of service in the majors and, therefore, have the right to have their 2013 contracts determined by an independent arbitrator. In most cases, these types of players receive significant bonuses in arbitration from their previous years.

Overcast or cloudy skies may have blocked some view of November's full moon Tuesday night, but the celestial event can be seen Wednesday night, too. The full moon technically arrives at 9:46 a.m. Wednesday, making either Tuesday or Wednesday nights' moons both good in terms of viewing the moon's size and brightness. However, this month, that isn't saying much. The full moon coincides with lunar apogee, when the earth and moon are furthest apart in orbit. This month's full moon is known as the Full Beaver Moon, perhaps because it was the time to set traps for furs traditionally, or because beavers are preparing for winter about now, according to the Farmer's Almanac . Clear skies are in the forecast in Baltimore on Wednesday night.

The Baltimore-Washington Parkway reopened to traffic early Saturday morning, after the successful removal of segment of the West Nursery Road bridge overnight. The closures of the parkway, which is a major route to Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, are part of an ongoing and sometimes troubled project to replace the bridges by rolling them down the highway and slotting them into position. Hurricane Sandy and construction mishaps had delayed the project, but the bridge over the northbound side of the parkway - also called Route 295 - was replaced last weekend.
