The Colts were in Baltimore in the old days and I used to be a fan watching them as a kid, then one day they left town.

Another team was given lots of incentives by the Maryland politicians to move in and “Ravens” arrived from Cleveland.

The Colts left Baltimore like the Republican Party has left me.

People in my part of the world have football loyalties ranging from the Ravens to the Steelers to the Eagles.

The Ravens were the original Cleveland Browns. Arthur Modell moved them to Baltimore and the owner of the Baltimore Colts (Irsay?) moved his team to Indianapolis. Then today’s Cleveland Browns were create to fill the void in Cleveland. IIRC.
