In this week's silly Page 2 Quiz, the Orioles get a lot of love.

Or no love.

The love of recognition, at any rate...

They say that if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at? And while I am by no means an Oriole, I am an Oriole fan. And while some of these are actually quite funny (see "Wait a minute, Paul Shuey is back in the big leagues?"), I'm getting tired of laughing. Move on, already! :)

Grrr

You know, in past years, the Orioles have just kind of quietly sucked without much notice from the rest of the league. Now our team is genuinely a laughing stock. I'm not sure this is improvement...

3. Wait a minute, Paul Shuey is back in the big leagues?
(A) Yes
(B) Well, that kind of explains why the Orioles are 17½ games out of first place

that's comedy!

I also liked:

7. Congress finally killed a military plane program, the DP2 project, that it had poured $63 million into over 20 years because:
(A) The plane, which is supposed to take off straight up and then fly at 700 mph, had never reached more than a few feet before crashing
(B) The money for the program had been buried in an obscure provisions bill known as "earmarks"
(C) Government engineers reviewed the project and panned the idea
(D) It decided the money would be better spent buying the Orioles some new pitchers
(E) All of the above, except D, which is just a lame joke about the Orioles' pitching staff
