I shamelessly stole this link from Dempsey's Army because it's so awesome. I cannot wait to hear him sing "Baby It's Cold Outside." -Stacey
O's on Deck: Gamboa recovering from minor back injury
So that's why he hasn't pitched for the Desert Dogs yet. In case you were losing sleep over it. -duck
O's on Deck: Arizona Fall League recap -- Oct. 27
Josh Bell's slump deepened, with the future slugger going 0-for-3 with a K in a Desert Dogs win. That's it, ship him to Aberdeen next year. -duck
Dennis Sarfate finding success in Mexican Pacific League
Roch says: "Sarfate has permitted five hits over his seven appearances, with three walks and 10 strikeouts. Opponents are batting .156 against him." Sarfate says he feels like his velocity is up, and definitely likes being a closer. -duck
Brad Mills: Houston Astros hire Mills as manager
"Brad Mills is the new manager of the Houston Astros. The 52-year-old Mills has been Terry Francona's bench coach in Boston for the past six seasons." Well, good luck Brad. -duck

PressBox: Trade Birds For Marlins -- Now
"A blockbuster trade is in order, but swapping out a player or two simply won’t do. No, the entire organization needs to be exchanged for the Florida Marlins." Sure, it's ridiculous, but it is a fun read. -duck
The Schmuck Stops Here: Phony controversy
"By the way, to be fair, the place was full of Orioles and MASN employees, so the notion that Brooks was being ignored by the current organization is ridiculous." He goes on to say comparing the gala to Elrod Hendrick's funeral is "just plain wrong." You tell 'em, Peter. -duck

Only the Yankees (oh and the Phillies) pie people in the face
Take a look at the latest Yankee tradition.
So AJ Burnett, a Yankee since 2009, does it and that makes it a “Yankee tradition?”
theyve been going on an on about it up here
you know when the O’s get back in the spotlight everyone is gonna say they stole it from the Yankees. I mean c’mon, we have a Pie that got Pie’d. Its ours.
It's been insufferable
They’re so loose and fun to be around now! They invented pieing people!
Ugh. The amount of hubris coming from the Yankee fans is literally pressing against my chest up here.
"I like baseball, movies, good clothes, whiskey, fast cars ... and you. What else you need to know?"
It's bad enough dealing with bandwagoners and fair-weather fans down here.
I can’t imagine being up there in the thick of it. (Though I did go to college 1.5 hrs north of NYC, but it never seemed like there were many Yankees fans… lotta Sox fans though.)
It pushes against my chest too. The rage, it makes it hard to breathe.
Argh..
The fact that you’re probably right already makes me angry even before it happens…..

Shut it OsFan21.... the Ravens are awesome
We’ve lost every game in the final minute. We’ll be fine. The secondary is the only concern for me right now. I think the offense is really potent and will spur them deep into the playoffs.

I was wondering where you'd been
And yeah, the Ravens have had some tough losses. Basically wins that were snatched away from us! Time to step it up!!
Also a big WTF in response to the thing about the Redskins banning signs. I repeat, WTF?? Is Dan Snyder trying to drive the franchise into the ground? Is it his desire to alienate fans? Sure seems like it.
From what I read...
The sign had profantiy or something like: B I N GO F YOURSELF SNYDER.
I guess I can kind of see that with kids at the game and stuff, but the sign should have probably just been confiscated without the fans being thrown out. And yeah, the Ravens got really ripped off in New England with those phantom Brady calls. And in Minnesota Houshka has to be able to hit that 44 yarder for the win. We really really really should be 5-1 (and I know alot of teams say that, but we really should). Who do you like OsFan21?
by Wieters Wieners on Oct 28, 2009 12:38 PM EDT up reply actions
No you should read the article
It shows a million signs that were confiscated in addition to that one, most of which were totally normal.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts
Yeah -- I couldn't believe it
Especially the stories of security guards ripping up people’s signs — WHAT?? I can’t imagine going to see a team I love and having my sign ripped up at the stadium. Why would you treat your fans that way? It makes zero sense.
Just read the article.
Wow! Thats not at all what I saw on ESPN originally. Thats pretty shameful of Snyder. I cant stand that guy. I was down at ESPNZone monday night for Bill Simmons book signing and got to talk to him a bit. I got into it with a random Redskins fan defending Snyder simply because “he spends money”. I actually like the freaking Redskins, but they are simply a bad team right now…

Oh don't worry - I'm a skins fan and am miserable.

Not if you’re OK with breaking copyright laws. Ther are plenty of sites (cough ISOHUNT.com cough) that can handle it. If you’d like a tutorial, e-mail. Not that I’ve ever done it. That would be illegal and stuff. And illegal is bad.

I'm really torn.
Obviously I hate the Yankees more than anything, but I also have several close friends who are diehard phillies fans and I hate seeing them happy. I also hate philly teams/fans in general.
I absolutely agree
I hate seeing my friends happy period, especially when it’s beacause they’re fans of a Philly team who is doing well. Monday night was especially painful being a Skins fan.
That being said, it just doesn’t rival my hatred for the janks. I will undoubtedly be cheering for the phils. At least all the Philly fans I know are philly fans for a good legitimate reason, unlike the janks.
I'm rooting for the phillies
Only because they are playing the Yankees.

You hate seeing your close friends happy??
I have a soft spot for the Phillies because one of my good friends is a lifelong Phillies fan. But even if it weren’t for that, I would rather drink battery acid than root for the Yankees, so Phillies it is by default.
the o's are a AAA team at best
why not root for the yankees?
by twistedlogic on Oct 28, 2009 6:31 PM EDT up reply actions
Haha, I'm happy for my friends, but ONLY as long as they are true fans
and not being bandwagoning little jerks.
My best friend is a Yankees fan
I can’t be happy for her, but I do my best to refrain from open hostility in her presence. I know that if the tables were turned she’d be nothing but thrilled for me, but I don’t have it in me.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts
Hmm, yes.
I didn’t think about Yankees fans. They’re in a special category. I guess I would not be happy for a friend if they were a Yankee fan. Good point.
It's tough
I’d like nothing more than for her to be a fan of any other team. I’ve actually softened on them quite a bit over the years because she really does love them so much, but when it comes to the playoffs I revert right back into the Yankee hater I was born to be.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts
Me too. I’m even more bitter about the Phillies’ success because while I’m still Mr. Bitter Eagles Fan, while all the other Philly fans have gotten their long-awaited championship.
They also generally can’t be happy about the Phillies w/o using that to dump on the Eagles, which annoys me.
I’ll root for the Phillies on behalf of my wife, though.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
I do
my friend is a Phillies fan, but only for the past 4 years (he never followed baseball before that and had just moved to central Jersey near Philly). He started getting serious before last season which, miraculously, was the year they won a WS. Now the could win 2 in his 5 years of fandom. I was 1 year old the last time the O’s won and he gets 2 ws in 5 years? Fuck him!
That said, i’m rooting for the Phillies. No one would ever make me root for the Yankees.
Oh, well that's lame if he's a bandwagoner
My Phillie fan friend has loved them for life, and his whole family is from Philly, so I’m happy for him, and also jealous… but not hateful.
thats the thing
he ISNT a bandwagoner. He works for wachovia and gets free tickets and has been a “fan” since he moved down there. He started getting more serious about it before last season, so its not like he jumped on after their world series. Thats the worst part. I could trash him if he was a bandwagon fan. He’s just lucky. He’s a legit fan… he just has had nothing but awesomeness since he started following baseball and i’m jealous as hell.
Ohh
I misread and thought you said he became a serious fan right before they went to the WS. But now I gotcha.
Yeah… when you look at it, it’s amazing that us — all of us — have stayed true to a team for so long despite the years and years of non-awesomeness. I have some much-younger brothers who I am trying to make sure will be Orioles fans, but I’m worried that when they get a little older and if the O’s still suck, they’ll be all “screw this!” and find some other team… it’s actually a legitimate fear I have.
I’m sure my kids, if I have any, will end up Phillies fans. Lucky for them.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
The Orioles have basically lost York County. It’s kind of sad. Everyone here is a Steelers fan and a Phillies fan, which just doesn’t make sense to me.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
Hanover and Shrewsbury aren’t in York County.
Well…yeah, technically they are, but they’re like on another planet. (And they would say the same about York).
I complain about sports fan-dom here all the time…It’s basically just bandwagon-land.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
His wife is a Phillies fan
and he lives in Phillies country. I can see how it would be an uphill battle.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts
Yeah, and said kids are purely hypothetical at this point anyway.
And with my luck they’d turn into Red Sox/Patriots fans just to spite me.
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
Or maybe just not watch sports AT ALL
That’s whay I have with my 12 and 9 year old. No interest in any televised sport at all, except my daughter will watch WSOP with me. And I don’t think that really counts.
"I would approve signing a pitcher that ate kitten tacos if he won 20 games a year." -BPinOK
May I suggest...
video games. No one in my family was a sports fan when I was growing up and the only reason I even got into sports was because of NHL ‘94 on Sega. It taught me the players names, numbers, and rules of the game. After that, when I would watch a game I actually knew what was going on and who was who. Now I’m a sports nut.
HIt and miss with my son
due to his vision problems. He loves Tony Hawk and Guitar Hero, but can’t play my MLB games at all. Breaks down crying from frustration.
"I would approve signing a pitcher that ate kitten tacos if he won 20 games a year." -BPinOK
he actually said today
that he’s kinda looking forward to the years of frustration. He said he knows that its all cyclical, but he’s seen me be soooo passionate for this team since the day we met 13 years ago and he knows how much ridiculously more it’d mean to me to see the team make the playoffs and win a world series because of it. He is actually almost jealous of me as an O’s fan. He has no idea.
in this particular year, it's a no-brainer
yeah, i hate philly teams and whatnot, but the yankees CANNOT be rewarded for their off-season spending spree. they need to be smacked down.
"I doubt he could reach [second base]...mostly cuz his fucking arm was in Aybar's nuts." – twistedlogic
yeah but the thing is
if they don’t win, it will just spur them on to buy even more players at ridiculous prices this off season. I don’t want them to win the WS but maybe if they do they’ll think they’ve done enough and will just stop for awhile.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts

Not to mention
If you’re driving from Maryland why do you need to stop at a rest stop in Maryland? Sometimes I do stop in Delaware just to get away from the godawful traffic. I don’t know who Delaware thinks it is with all of its congestion and charging me a bunch of money to drive 11 miles.
Some Day, Matt Wieters Will Make The Cooperstown Crowd Laugh By Talking About The Time He Batted Behind Melvin Mora And Luke Scott. -Keith Law via Matt Wieters Facts
Because
I live in Philly, so when I have to drive south for work, it seems that my bladder limit after a large coffee is always about ten to twenty miles south of the Maryland/Delaware border.
Occasionally, I’ve made that “Rest Area” in Baltimore, but that’s not really a proper rest area.

This damn near got the Angels into the Series
http://www.slate.com/id/2233721/
And it’s probably the Phillies’ only chance of winning it.
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.
Here's the money quote
The Yankees have the better team, and would probably win the World Series if they were managed by a bag of sunflower seeds. The bag of seeds, at least, wouldn’t pinch run for Alex Rodriguez, bench Jorge Posada, or swap relievers because of some minute difference that doesn’t really matter.
