Your sweet ass has about the same integrity as all the other bullshit I see (and sometimes even read) every motherfuckin day on this Internet we find one another on… Source verified as original by way of alcohol.

Nice fuckin job, eh…

I agree with that. It just seems so far out or place in baseball the way it is. Sad thing is, there was probably a whole damn committee of executives planning that change… and probably not a damn single one of em fans of baseball… Sad, really… I totally plucked that outta my ass, though. I have no real knowledge of how that decision was really made. But it seems fitting for the way shit’s gone the last few years…

I’m good with that, as an Orioles fan with Mateo and Mullins on the team… I guess I’m the old bastard on this one, really. I was okay with long games. Last O’s game I attended went 13 innings and I got to see damn near the whole team play. I absolutely loved it and wished it went to 33 innings… I get it, but I love watching live baseball. I hate the ghost runner so much. It reminds me of playing in the yard with just my sister when we were kids… Doesn’t belong in MLB, though. At least in my opinion. I like the choice of an optional intentional, though… That’s not a bad idea, really…

Kill the guy on second… The “Manfred Man,” The “Zombie Runner,” etc… Figure out something better for extra innings. It’s almost embarrassing, especially when explaining it to kids and newcomers…

Stryper. Maybe more of a hair band than a metal band; but they had a little success back in the day. Couldn’t even tell ya another Christian band.

Hahaaaa! I know ya do!

You’re right about not dumping dollars into the team when they were tanking. It would just have been an extreme waste. And with Chris Davis being the highest paid player on the team last year, I’m really so very glad that we didn’t go after Correa or any of the other big contracts. Save those damn dollars for Adley, Gunnar, Jackson is coming up soon; keep some money for those dudes. I think it’s smart. But we gotta gotta gotta fill those holes in the pitching. Till The Mountain comes back we’re gonna need somebody like Kimbrel. I dig that move and hope he hangs in there and gives em hell.

According to the Locked On Orioles podcast there may be a couple rumors going on surrounding Dylan Cease of the White Sox, which sounds good to me, but the thing is: I really hope they don’t fuck up the farm system… I’d rather see money spent than see a few of those dudes get traded. Some, I realize, are there only for trade pieces. But, not Jackson or Mayo, and so far I’m feeling that way about the centerfielder, although his name eludes my mind at the moment (Enrique? Something like that…?)

I’ve got good feelings about the leadership (Angelos aside, kinda) and I think they’ve done a hell of a job, shit we just won a hundred games! The next few years are gonna be absolutely phenomenal baseball. And I’m high on the O’s again!

I was definitely beginning to think I was only one here. Cheers!

Fuckin Go O’s!

I’m a fuckin O’s fan. Tanking is by far the worst thing in baseball. Some steps have been made to reduce the benefit of just losing your ass off for draft picks. But, even worse than those hard tanking years, it hurts the most seeing a really great farm-raised team not getting supplemented with some good pitchers because of the refusal of Angelos (owner of the Orioles) to spend any real money.

There’s a rumor rolling around that maybe David Rubenstein is interested in buying the team, Baltimore native, hell of a lot of money… But unknown in the willingness to spend category. Owners that don’t spend are far worse for this great game, in my opinion.

Superstar teams usually don’t work either, mind you… But not putting money into a team with the talent level of the O’s in the past couple years? That’s just straight fucked.
