And on this day in Camden Chat history:

Os in the WBC
2006 - zk talks about the large number of Orioles playing in the WBC and how it'll allow the Orioles a chance to look at their young talent in ST (hee, young talent).

Olney on O's 
2006 - Birdman's post about Buster Olney's observations on Miguel Tejada might worry some people about his place on the team in 2010.

HEEEEEEEY YOOOOOU GUUUUUUUYS

Cubbies' rumor mill continues to grind
2008 - Remember when we were all convinced that Brian Bob would be traded to the Cubs?

All they got from Paulie was protection from other guys looking to rip them off. That's what it's all about. That's what the FBI can never understand - that what Paulie and the organization offer is protection for the kinds of guys who can't go to the cops. They're like the Open Thread for wiseguys.

I was mad because the I wanted to get Derek Lee for B-Rob, but instead we were going to get some weird guy named Pie.

I vote we stop the Olympics now...while we have twice as many medals as anybody else.

OK, maybe let the hockey go on, but that’s it.

The guy who wrote “AL East battle” for the Herald looks like the biggest dork in everybody’s high school. I don’t care where you went.

Happy Valentine's day!

To everyone with a special someone, have a loving, wonderful day. And to those who do not—like me—next year let’s hope to share it with someone else. That’s all I can say :)

ditto

and thanks for saying “another think”. a lot of people say, “another thing coming” which makes no sense to me whatsoever.

And they are, alas, the probable reason the dimbulb “thing” version still gets 41.5 K Google hits (to 61 K for “think”). I s’pose you could argue that “thing” has acquired a life of its own (I’m tempted to say “it’s own”, hee-hee) because you can find mainstream press examples of it (N. von Hoffman in WaPo)— but no dice with me.

And no, I don’t see a parallel with “could care less” as a synonym for “couldn’t care less”: the former is not a mistake, it’s simply an elliptical construction, the ellipsis being the absent negative particle. And said absence just don’t bother those of us who use the construction, ’cause we could care less.

It pained me to write that post in 2006. I used to LOVE me some Miguel Tejada.

I don’t know how the Rays’ players stand it in their stadium, to be honest.

Bergesen injured while shooting a commercial.

Don’t know if this was already common knowledge or not, it’s the first I’ve heard of it. Sounds like he’ll be ok, though.
