Guts QS, O’s lose. Good thing the memory element saves this subject line, huh?

Now if it would just save a line that read Kevin Gregg disembowled by angry Orioles fans. I would pull it up just for fun years after this scumbag’s untimely demise. You know, to cheer me up on during rain delays ‘n’ stuff.

Man, there’s nothing like killing your winning streak with a come-from-ahead-TWICE-loss, is there? Takes the air right outta your optimism balloon, just when you had it up over the lower-hanging trees of northeast Moscow – and people were asking Who’s the smiley goofball in the Orioles hat with the woman and the walking-menace kid and the balloon – is he mental?

OK, since we can’t disembowel The Dreggs – apparently it’s a union thing – and a nice one-way bus ticket to Norfolk also seems beyond our powers of imagination, we have one option remaining: We Can Lump It.

It’s kind of like getting to the main-dish section in your college dining hall line at dinner and reading the smaller lettering below the CHOICE OF ENTRÉE: sign you’d seen ahead of you five minutes and 30 feet earlier: yes, next to the last remaining slabs o’ drying meat loaf and an empty tray where the chicken entrée used to be, the fine print specifies your actual choice: “Take it or leave it”.

OK, 2-nite it’s Matusz for the prophylactic, and I this time I actually like our Trojan-game chances – as long as we don’t go to the meat loaf tray for our, ahem, final course.

Go O’s!
