Orioles Card "O" the Day: Vintage Fridays: Brooks Robinson, 1969 Topps Deckle Edge #1
Friend of Blog Kevin Brotzman and his family are facing some difficulties from a disease far too familiar to many here at Camden Chat. Do me a favor, go read his journal and offer some moral support. I'm sure he and his wife could use it.
Happy Birthday to former Oriole pitcher Rocky Coppinger. He shares his birthday with famous people including 1742 Tupac Amaru II, Incan revolutionary, who my students tell me is still alive on a Carribean island with Biggie Smalls; 1813 David Livingstone, Scottish explorer, I presume; 1848 Wyatt Earp, American sheriff; 1860 William Jennings Bryan, one of the more fascinating losers in American history; 1891 Earl Warren, Governor of California/Supreme Court chief justice; 1953 Billy Sheehan, bassist (Mr. Big, David Lee Roth band); 1955 Bruce Willis, actor (just don't invite him to Christmas parties on the West Coast).

Consider this your discussion space for all things NCAA Championships. I can't wait to see that 285 lbs final of North Carolina State's Nick Gwiazdowski and Ohio State's Kyle Snyder (a Maryland native). I've seen Snyder wrestle, as I've mentioned probably too many times here. And he won a world championship in freestyle last year as a teenager. But Gwiz is riding a 88-match winning streak. This will be one for the history books. The NCAA finals will be on tonight on ESPN at 8 p.m. Gwiz vs Snyder should face off around 10:30ish.
