Baltimore isn't a good sports town. It is what it is.

Every once in a while, when drunk, I come back here and post.
It's fun.

Too lazy/drunk to read this whole thread, but I hope beyond hope that your wife got her Wrangler.
People work hard. That hard work should results in life's pleasures.
If she wants a Wrangler, who are we to say 'no'?

Got 'em fairly easy.
Thanks, Orioles!

For the record, I got seats last year (despite the system headaches) and I think there are probably less plan holders this year (since last year lots of people presumably signed up for a plan for playoff ticket deposits).
-
I can understand having first dibs.....I don't mind that one bit.For 2014 playoffs....I get what you're saying but I don't think it was quite the same. For 2014 playoffs, IIRC, all ST owners were offered a playoff package (2 tickets to each series) based on their plan (or at least I thought that was the case). After the packages were purchased, whatever tickets were left were offered to ST owners based on plan/seniority. It wasn't like 29 gamers were buying extras before the 13 gamers were even offered anything....which seems to be the case for OD.
To get 2 OD tickets with the 29 plan, and then to be able to buy 2 extra tickets at 10 am.....before most 13 gamers have ANY, that doesn't make any sense to me. IMO, that will result in 29 game owners taking advantage and buying the extra tickets, to sell for big bucks on stub hub and recoup some (if not all) of the 2016 price increase. I'm not saying all with do that, but let's be real - many will, and that doesn't benefit the Orioles at all.....it's not like they get a % of the profit on stub hub....or, hmmmmm, wait a minute, do they?!?!?
You're missing the point. Having this incentive in place makes more people want to buy 29 game plans (see Murph) over 13s, which is more money in their pocket. All those empty green seats in the middle of August are "filled" if a plan owner owns them and chooses not to go.
-
Pretty much all of them except the Southeast (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama) and the northwest/upper Midwest (Idaho, Oregon, Montana, the Dakotas, Iowa, Nebraska)
My goal to start seeing some SEC football games should solve the southeast issue. Can't ever see myself going to Idaho, Montana, the Dakotas etc etc -- nothing there interests me.
-
I wonder what the cut off was between the 10 am and 2 pm folks.
Not that I'm that worried, I scored tix last year and that was with the increase in plan members due to playoff ticket deposits from 2014 - I am assuming they have less season ticket plans than last year.
Still, this is my fourth year owning seats, figure at some point I'll get to sit at the "big kids" table.
-
So what time is everyone eligible to buy OD tix? I got 2 pm which is later than last year.
-
Yea Murph, I got the same email today.
I think it's lousy that the general public can buy tickets before we are allowed to exchange, but such is life.
I really want to swap for the Manny Machado garden gnome game -- anyone think that one will sell out before the opportunity to exchange presents itself? It so, I will just buy that game extra and swap out for another.
-
Does anyone know when season plan holders will be able to start trading in tickets for other games on a dollar by dollar basis?
-
Is Bolton Bob coordinating anything this year?
Will be down March 10-13. Can't wait.

I renewed. You can't take it with you.

I gotta say, I don't always see eye to eye with Drungo, but I could read his posts about baseball history and the HOF for weeks and not get bored.
My ballot, FWIW:
Bonds
Clemens
Bagwell
Piazza
Schilling
Raines
Mussina
Griffey
Martinez
McGwire

14-5. Includes a loss at Boston on Patriot's Day and a win in Toronto in June.

Yup, it's the wrist.
Guy has had more excuses made for him than a senior in high school who's late every day.
Counting down the days until this worthless piece of garbage is off the team.
Oh, hope everyone here is doing well!

Thank God.
We will need his sizzling bat if we expect to finish in third place!

I do, and you should too. Here's why. Womens basketball is a throwback form of basketball that in my opinion focuses on the best things about team sports. It's the anti-NBA, all heart, hustle and defense with a smattering of terrific individual athleticism. The MD team specifically plays really selflessly, making the extra pass, passing up the opportunity to pad stats in an effort to get a better shot. Everything as a coach I try to teach my kids to do.Outside of that, the MD girls ran the table in the Big 10 this year against everyone's prediction. They have won their last 28 or 29 games and are really playing inspired basketball. They also have the chance to knock UConn off of their perch as an added bonus. Give them a shot. You might be surprised.
So what you're saying is you don't really know what the NBA is about?
-
If the Os had Bryant there isn't a soul on here that would trade him for Machado.
-
Although I will say the fact that Manny's agent isn't Scott Boras does work in his favor. At least in this debate.
-
Typical fans overvaluing their own players. The Cubs would never trade Bryant for Machado and DD should be fired on the spot if he turned that deal down.
Same age, less injury history, more service time remaining, maybe more talented. Yeah.
Should the Orioles move to the suburbs?

This is a better topic for about 20 years from now -- and even then I'd rather just renovate OPACY.
I want the stadium to be around in 100 years. I want it the be this generation's icon.
