    My prediction: September 5th

    With the news that the Orioles will not move the game from 9/5, I predict the worst game attendance and worse TV rating on MASN for the season.

    Horrible PR move by the Orioles

    “The Orioles have great respect for the Super Bowl Champion Ravens and thank Major League Baseball, the MLB Players Association, and the White Sox for doing everything possible to work with us to explore all options to reschedule the September 5 game. We also appreciate the work of the NFL and the Ravens over the past several weeks as we attempted to accommodate the Ravens' interest in a game the same evening. Given the limited options available to reschedule the game at that late date in the season, the parties jointly determined that even an earlier start time would still create such enormous logistical difficulties that it would greatly diminish the fan experience for both events which all parties realized would not be in the interest of their fans or the City."
    You can't blame the Orioles for this, they were the only one of the four baseball parties with anything to gain (or lose) from it.

    And this deserved it's own thread why?

    And of course you are willfully ignoring the fact that the O's do not have the power to unilaterally change the start time of the game more then 30 minutes.
