  1. Its great being an O's fan and living out of state! No conflict of interest.
  2. I was 18, me and my 13 year old brother shook up bottles of Coke and orange soda in the backyard and sprayed each other in celebration! Can't believe it's been 40 years.
  3. I'll take the O's making the playoffs 7 of the next 10 years in a heartbeat.
  4. Ok so twice every 25 years they miss the playoffs.
  5. Yes, money isn't everything....but it sure helps. Yankee fans cant believe they missed the playoffs for the first time in like 25 years. Oriole fans will be happy with this new playoff system soon enough. Good chance this O's core doesn't win the division the next couple of years....but make the playoffs and anything can happen.
  6. The playoffs are a crapshoot, the regular season is not. The Giants, Dodgers, Astros are all good teams that went to the playoffs multiple times in a row, giving them a number of shots at the crapshoot playoffs. If the O's make the post season 6 seasons in a row, the odds they win the crapshoot part of the season, increases.
  7. KB is a top notch play by play guy. He will be doing national broadcasts in the not to distant future. His pop culture knowledge and age makes him more relatable to the next generation of fans. It will be a shame when we lose him.
  8. Brooks is my childhood hero. Had the great honor to meet him twice. The second time at a restaurant at the inner harbor. This was in the late 90's. He walked in, I didn't want to bother him, but had to just tell him he was my hero and thank him. My friend and I were sitting at the bar watching the NBA playoffs. After Brooks sat down with his guests and ordered, he came over and sat with us and watched the game. He sat with us for about 10 minutes just talking about basketball and the playoff game we were watching. What a great guy. Happy I was able to watch him play, and happy I had the chance to meet him!
  9. - This Week in Baseball, always excited when they featured the O's. - Baseball cards. The thrill of getting Orioles in a pack.
  10. Nor should they.....Gunnar is the higher priority in my opinion.
  11. In the case of the Yankees I'd say 30 straight years in the playoffs = success.
  12. I was there with my daughter....we both still talk about that moment as the best we have seen live.
  13. Longer career doesn't matter...we wouldn't have either past their FA year.
  14. Do you think any opposing announcer has said "it's been 40 years since the Orioles have won a World Series"? I hope someone has.....that means it's already been decided!
