ORIOLES

[James Ford]

He's also a 35 year old man with a college education who's a born again Christian.

How is that hilarious?

Don't mistake my laughter for celebration.

But when a 35 year old injury prone player steals a base with a 4 run lead in the ninth and hurts himself, I can't help but laugh.  He's a veteran and should know better.  He's not 25 any more...

[Got Haggis?]

yeah, I hate whenever he comes up to bat and they play his shitty born again christian music

Opening day was awesome.  Although having basically no pre game celebration was lame. Chris Davis is the man

Over a five year period, I managed to acquire five bobbleheads, either through going to games or from cereal boxes (mini-bobbleheads).

Four of them were subsequently associated with steriods (ARod, Gibbons, Giambi, and Tejada), and the fifth was Sidney Ponson.

I don't recommend buying Orioles season tickets.  Everyone else got their season tickets by a week ago so I emailed my contact person and he said basically they will get there when they get there and your first game isn't until april 17th anyway.  So I get my tickets yesterday and I send a nice email saying I am missing a ticket.  And he replies he has never heard of such a thing before.  And I should triple check my tickets and they don't have any time to do anything about it as opening day is coming up.

Like I would send him an email about a ticket I hadn't triple checked to see if it were there.  What is worse it is a 12:35 weekday game so I wanted to exchange it for another game which for some reason I have to do at the box office and not online.  Well I don't have the ticket.

For my symphony season tickets I do it all online and it is simple.  I have to say I have never had a condescending attitude from anyone I have done business with before. 

Hey, you're 'atomic' over on Orioles Hangout, aren't you?

Any word on why the O's are playinga Mon, NO TUES GAME, Wed, Thurs series in Boston?

Is the NFL to blame? Some weird Irish holiday?

Home opener in Boston was Monday.  They schedule an off day on Tuesday in case the weather doesn't cooperate.  They do the same when the O's open at home. 

[StoneTheCrow]

That was fun.

Shut those annoying Boston fans right up!  And people think baseball isn't exciting...

last night was the first non-sell out game for Boston in almost 800 games.

Is that the same line up that put up ~33 runs in their last 3 games?
