With four wins and nine losses, Ravens fans are disgusted with the way this football season has turned out, but what can they do about it?
According to
Mike Schuh, they can make a very public point.
It's 34 degrees with sleet and freezing rain. In just five days Ron Stack built a penthouse.
"So this is your front porch...front step leaves something to be desired. Kind of a doozy if you miss it. This is my single family, one-bedroom apartment," says Ron Stack.
Stack was distraught over last week's loss.
"Something came into my mind. I said, 'you remember the goof on the roof?" Stack said. "You're the goof on the roof. I'll go up on the roof.'"
The next thing he knows, here he is. He's stocked the finest nutritional supplements. Though he's atop a tavern, this wet rooftop is dry.
"They don't want a drunk goof on the roof," Stack said, laughing.
He'll come down when the Ravens win or if Coach Billick is fired. He says most often it's women who beep or say hello.
"Yeah, I'm single. Never would have guessed that. Not much opportunity for goofs in the marital world. Goofettes are hard to find," Stack said.
So will the Ravens roll over Miami this Sunday, or will Ron's adventure roll another week?
The bar upon which he's camped, Canton Station, will have a big Ravens rally on Sunday to either cheer Ron on as he comes down after a win, or to offer him support if he has to wait another week until the end of the season Pittsburgh game on Dec. 30.
