ORIOLES

[K8teebug]

I love baseball.  I don't think it's boring.  I have faith they will have a winning season.  I watch every Orioles game and have since I was little.  So for me, especially after watching them lose and lose and lose for years and years and years, I'm a happy fan.

I'm over you fair weather fans.

and I went to around 16 games last year and 13-14 this year, including going to Cleveland.

Sorry you guys don't like baseball.  Glad you won't be next to me complaining.

Yeah because baseball games are so much fun when you are the only one there.

They are to me.  Especially when I'm watching with real fans.

I love baseball.  It's my favorite.  I don't need beer or people screaming to find it exciting.

I think you went to too many games.

I think it's up to the individual to decide that.  I love baseball and usually attend ~15 games a year.  Didn't come close to that this year, unfortunately.  Only saw the O's lose once.

A .500 season has to be a disappointment based on expectations.  Hopefully the front office sees it that way and acquires the few missing pieces we need for next season.

Thinking of going on Friday.

I have no idea why you have season tickets.  All you do is complain about the team, the game, the sport, etc.  Maybe you should invest in Caps tix instead.

Going Thursday and Sunday.  As far as the FO goes - seems to me they made moves to acquire more pitching around the deadline.  The team just stopped hitting.

I won't have season tickets next year.  I thought it would be fun.  16 games in a season is too many.  I won't be getting Caps tickets as they are too much money and I don't feel like driving to DC.  I do think hockey players should get paid more money as there is actually some competition to get them to play in North America and it is a physical game.

If I lived closer to the stadium, I would get the 29 game plan for sure.

You just don't like baseball.  Go drink beer at a bar and watch the game on tv with the other frat guys.

I like being outside drinking on a nice day.  I think that is what baseball has going for it.  Perhaps that is why I liked it less in July and August.  Too hot.  On a nice sunny 70 degree day it is awesome.  Drinking my Belgium Beer and having a pretzel.

Evidently Machado just severly injured his knee.

I saw that - stretchered off.  Totally sucks.  Fingers crossed.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado has been taken off the field on a stretcher after injuring his left leg running out an infield single.

Machado's leg buckled when he reached the first-base bag in the seventh inning of Monday's game at Tampa Bay.

Machado was in obvious pain while being treated on the infield dirt near first by team trainers and stadium medical officials.

Baltimore manager Buck Showalter patted Machado several times near the shoulder before the stretcher was moved from the playing field.

Isn't there at least part of the day when you're not a dick?
