I know this kind of runs along with the rant Greg wrote, but it is getting pretty ridiculous with people calling out the insiders. It is not their faults for things not working out. They are just relaying to us what they are being informed. They have no control over the matter. People calling out the insiders for not being right all the time is just wrong. They are giving us information that should not be taken as not 100 percent fact or fiction. It is just things that are being discussed. While the frustation for lack of activity is understandable, it does not need to be taken out on the insiders. All it doing is forcing the insders to keep the information to themselves because they fear if their wrong they are going to be blasted for it. Tonight alone Peace, Sonny, and bigbird have said they are going to start to keep things to themselves. These three and the other insiders are part of the reason why the OH is better than most other boards. I'm not saying they are the only reason, because there are some very intelligent people on this board, but I'm sure some most people look forward to hearing from the insiders and what they have to share.

I am not directing this rant at anyone in particular, but it is just something that has angered me over the past couple of day. Im sorry if this offends anyone in anyway it just the way I see things.

Well said, and I'm sure most would agree with you.

You know what? Around a year ago I was going Oriole crazy on the internet, looking to find the latest news. I wanted to find ANYTHING new that I could. Then I happened to plug "Orioles Forums" in google and magically I appeared here. I thought this place would be like any other message board, and truthfully it is. Everybody loves to hate each other. They bicker and pick on each other and most of the time it is in good fun. What really caught my attention with this place is the insiders. They are not the reason I have stayed around here, I actually enjoy being closer to the Orioles, if that makes any sence.

Anyone here complaining about the insiders forgets the main reason why this place is alive and well. Anyone here cant tell me they dont enjoy the excitement and sometimes the cluster they generate. I for one am a supporter of our insiders!

Hey atleast I can say, "I know someone who knows someone who may also know someone in the FO!" Lol
