You are my hero!

I got some of the players wrong when I described it yesterday, but the awesomeness remains.

Yeah, I agree.

A rare 10 of 10 on the awesome scale. I can see watching this 10 years from now.

This is an instant classic.

Hilarious!!!

From the Land of Pleasant Living...

Oh my god this is amazing

my favorite part is the superimposed o-r-i-o-l-e-s in front of the yard at 1:30

my fave

my favorite parts:

Guthrie blowing Moroni’s Horn to start the video, and then his sweet satin voice to end it. St. Guts FTW

oh yea

nothing like the sweet dulcet tones of the french horn being played on a clarinet

O-R-I-O-L-E-S

I remember doing that in the house with my siblings… When Wild Bill ruled section 34 it was new. I remember it rocking the house during the one and only World Series game I went to in ‘79.

If my memory serves me, Earl Weaver led that cheer during his curtain call at the end of the ‘82 season.

There’s not cheer that comes close.

good lord this will never, ever fail to make me happy. ever.

I love this team.

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."

Who's in there?

Millar
Jones

"Whether your name is Gehrig or Ripken, DiMaggio or Robinson, or that of some youngster who picks up his bat or puts on his glove, you are challenged by the game of baseball to do your very best day in and day out. That's all I've ever tried to do."

Sarfate is 45, Loewen is 29

by IHeartMASN on May 14, 2008 11:34 PM EDT 0 recs

Then we are still missing one...

by spike2131 on May 15, 2008 1:52 PM EDT up 0 recs

nope

Having watched this a number of times, I can tell you definitively that:

O=Kevin Millar
R=Dennis Sarfate
I=Adam Loewen
O=Kevin Millar again
L=Adam Jones
E=George Sherrill
S=Jeremy Guthrie

It was driving me crazy that Orioles has seven letters but I could only name six guys in the video. The answer is Kevin Millar as he is so awesome he needed two letters.

great pr

I love this version of the orioles,its about time they did something to promote
themselves.

That's so freakin' beautiful

it makes me want to cry. Nice to see the FO finally takin’ us back and accepting the proud history of this franchise. I almost get the feeling that something "scroogian" happened to PA. Like maybe he was visited by Earl Weaver, Cal Ripken, and the Ghost of Wild Bill Hagy. It’s nice to see.

perhaps he was visited by MacPhail....

Who told him his marketing and fan relationship was about as bad as it could get.

can you imagine Tejada doing something like this?

I imagine he’d do one take to keep up appearances and then hit the showers. It wouldn’t exhibit any of the loose, comfortable, playful, PROUD vibes that the above video does.

And what about Bedard? Not on your life.
