HEY, YANKEES!
Don't sing it... BRING IT.
And so it all begins again. Game one of one hundred and sixty-two. Guthrie versus Sabathia. Orioles versus Yankees. The 2009 season is here. The game starts at 4:05 ET.
Opening Day is one of those things where I can be realistic all spring, I can do until the night before the game, but once it's really here, the fan in me can't help but come out. I've got my cap on, I'm wired up, I'm ready to go. Maybe we can do this thing.
Probably not. No, probably not.
But maybe we can.
I'm PUMPED, baby! LET'S GO, O'S!

yeah...
go up north on I-Standings to MLB. Take the first left to AL, then drive on and on… and on… and on… and on. You’ll pass one sunny haven with some palm trees and three other major metropolitan areas (two very affluent cities and one in which they like the word “heh” a lot… like A LOT). Continue driving.
It will seem like miles and miles of endless dreg, buy eventually, there on the right, you will find yourself approaching Birdland. Well, at least the outskirts of what was once a MAGICAL place but is now nothing but dilapidation. If you listen carefully you might hear the faint call of “magic, magic, magic, magic… make it happen”. On a real clear day you might even see a faded, crumbling structure with the word “BROMO” on it. If you don’t see that don’t be alarmed, just conitnue to drive; down, down, down the interstate. Eventually you’ll get to Birdland. You’ll know it when you see it. There should be an old ugly building, about 11 stories tall, that screams failure with what may appear to be a young garden blossoming in the spring rain… the rebirth of BIRDLAND. Once you get there… Welcome to Birdland

Yeah, the forecast looks a lot better than did all week.
20 percent chance of rain. 100% chance of BIRDLAND
I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

Let's Go O's
Is there any sports day better than opening day? I live in Buffalo and we have a winter storm watch today, but i took off from work and am going to the bar to watch baseball and the O’s all day!!!! So excited that another season is finally here
Some people ask me what I do during winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do, I stare out the window and wait for spring. ~Roger Hornsby
Is there anything better
than waking up in the morning and NOT going to work because instead it’s Opening Day?
PTO
Took a vacation day today a) to recoup from Opening Night in Phily last night and b) to get to lay in bed all day and watch O’s-pening day.
BIRDLAND.
Philly News
said that all fans at CBP last night got a 2008 world champs pennant. Brett Myers tried to give each fan a ball.
O's fans > Phils fans
I was sitting up in the nosebleeds last night, and the section I was in started booing Myers last night in the SECOND INNING.
there really isnt
i dont have the chemical makeup in my brain that would allow me to sit in the office all day long knowing that i should be watching the game

Predictions …
Sabithia will be shelled early, but the Reality Distortion Field that is Hank Steinbrenner will call down to Interim Manager Joe Girardi and insist he pitch at least seven innings. The last batter he faces will be Cesar Izturis, who will hit a towering shot that heads into Eutaw Street.
Teixeira will whiff his first at bat. He’ll miss a throw from Jeter at the bottom of the first because he’ll be on a three-way cell call from his wife and Scott Boras. Then, before his next at-bat, he’ll ask to be taken out of the game because of a hangnail.
Here's another good video
Yesterday, acoustic World of Orioles baseball on 105.7. Really loved it while delivering pizzas. During the Nats game on Saturday, there was some technical difficulties and they played Orioles Magic and that was the first time that song ever gave me chills, just hearing it so close to Opening Day.

Will miss being in the opening day thread, but I couldn’t pass on the invite to see the came on a television set.

And can I just say how cool it is to program your DVR from your phone? Big ups to DirecTv for the free iPhone app. Sorry, I’m addicted to my gadgets.

This game is on YES and ESPN.
And
Extra Innings is free this week anyway.

Big fan!
Of course all I get are Ranger games. But I love being able to tune into a team’s broadcast and not ESPNs.
Three game stand against Detroit? Awesome…I’ll watch two O’s broadcasts and one DET broadcast just to see what they have to say different about their team and ours.
Plus, the game mix thingy where htere are like 8 games on one screen is like coin beer to a recovering alcoholic.
Always trust your cape. -Guy Clark
This is the second opening day
in a row that I’ve gone in without any optimism. For the 10 losing years before that I always had my list of things that started with “What if” and “If these things go exactly right,” and I always was able to tell myself that it really COULD happen. I feel like a part of me has died :(
Of course, if we score 8 runs in the opener I’m going to be saying WE HAVE THE OFFENSE OMG THIS IS THE YEAR WE’RE HAVING A WINNING SEASON but right now I’ve got nothin…

I don’t remember hearing the Wizard of Oz flying monkeys Orioles chant last year. Anyone else? Flying monkeys chant is birdland.
They've done that for years...
I mean, YEEEEAAARRSSS

Flying Monkeys have been replaced.
By some new Ole` stadium type song. Much better, crowd actually sings it after the music stops.
Also: Rock & Roll Part 2 has RETURNED.

Plan for today
1. Drive to Hunt Valley light rail station, pray they won’t bother ticketing in an empty part of the shopping center lot that never fills up, ever.
2. Attempt to purchase standing room ticket; if this fails, look for scalper (which will be an adventure as I’ve never gone this route before).
3. Consume no less than two Esskay Oriole Beef hot dogs and one soft pretzel.
4. Play ball!

They’re great. It’s how I’d watch the game if I wasn’t going to be at work and in class for all of it. Should’ve brought my laptop into the city today, obviously.
I was kidding...

Tex Speaks
From the Alex Rodriguez school of trying to please everyone and pleasing no one:
“In a perfect world, the Orioles would have won the World Series every year that I was alive and I’d be an Oriole right now,” he said. “I have so much love for this city, for this organization, but in the business world and in the baseball world, sometimes you have to make difficult decisions. And when it came down to it, the Yankees were a better fit for me.”

Quite amusing they got the callsign letters flipped with the teams there.
Commercials and everything coming through
Gameday Audio
is also available for Windows Mobile phones. Its what I use at work, but it isn’t as pretty as the iPhone app.
on your windows mobile phone...
just go to mlb.com on your WinMo phone and click “Gameday Audio – Listen Live!” It only costs three bucks a month.
oh
I was using the live pitch-by-pitch earlier tonight in class.
Did you ever use that mlb.tv app that existed a few years ago for WinMo phones? I forget the name of it, but it was a third party app that tapped into mlb.tv streams and let you watch them on your phone, so long as you had an mlb.tv account. I used it for about a season, but then MLB made the guy stop selling the app.
This was three years ago and MLB hasn’t released a similar product yet. What gives, MLB?!?

Fuck Comcast. I was at a friend’s house to watch the NCAAs last night, and everything provided by Comcast, including the internet and TV, went out until 8:00, meaning that we missed most of the first game.

Agree 100%
He signed with the Yankees, fine. Moose signed with the Yankees and a lot of us here don’t blame him. Tex wanted more money and got it, so he’s a Yankee fine.
But now he’s been a Yankees fan all of his life? Not that I’m saying he’s suddenly making it up to endear himself to the NY fans – he very well might have actually been a Yankees fan all of his life.

Must have seen it a million billion times and I still love it.

When Luke plays left he’ll be fine. Late in the game he should be subbed out. This is exactly right.

Is it me...
or does Jones look like he matured at the plate by about 4 years in this off season. Not only him though, as the entire team worked the count and kept CC in trouble. Ahhh what a game…working the count is BIRDLAND!!!
"When they get drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, we expect them to play like that. Are we surprised? No."
And CC helped a lot by doing a creditable Sid imitation in both senses. Hiya, Porky!
"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." Churchill,1942-- a rebuilding year.
He spent a lot of the off-season
at the same place B-Rob does, and had Mark McLeamore in his ear all winter about what it will take to be a #2 hitter. And the first thing is plate discipline.
Based on a sample size of 1 game, I’d say he listened.

Who woulda thunk that cesar would hit a hr in his first game??? ha
Sweet start
If we can beat CC like this, why shouldn’t we be able to win a bunch of games??
We will see when the other 4 pitchers in our rotation actually pitch ha
But I am pumped right now
BIRDLAND
I’ll write more later, but I want to give a big shout out to the O’s crowd. There were Yankee fans, but not that many. And the crowd kicked some ass. Those boos? Holy shit!
I tried to get a ZAUN chant going in my section but no one seemed interested.

YES!
I skipped the thread to focus on the game and all, but after reading it I kinda missed out. I forgot how awesome it can be. However, I came looking for one of these and there it is. Awesome.
