I really didn't start following the O's daily until '89. So in that context, the 90's and 10's are the main comparison.
90's for overall W/L were far better, Camden was the best ticket in baseball, and Ripken was the toast of baseball.
10's were probably more exciting, coming out of a long dormant period, some incredibly memorable games (Andino walk-off, Ripken statue game, Wild Card, Game #2 '12 ALDS, Delmon double), and being able to follow some sure fire future Orioles HOFers like Jones.
Overall, I can't complain too much about the 10's. We had our ups and downs for sure. But 3-4 playoff appearances a decade, i'll take that. Hopefully some of them end in a parade in the 20's.
