Holliday going with the Mennonite look. Probably a wiser choice than Cowsers LOL. Still don’t get the pirate, that’s a completely different theme. Funny either way
Sorry for the belated thread bump.
Pretty sure the rookie hazing theme was "Peter Pan." Cowser = Tinkerbell, Westie = rando pirate (def not Capt Hook there LOL), and Jackson = Wendy Darling.

You know what I hate? That whistling noise they play at Yankee Stadium whenever an opposing batter strikes out.
LOL I actually found that on YouTube and started doing it the remainder of the game when we struck out MFYs. hahahahhaaa

Of course.
I, like the rest of us have been trying to figure out what is the deal with Adley's struggles.
I agree that the injury angle is most likely but I can't see why, if you have a team with a strong chance of making the playoffs, why you wouldn't stick him on the IL for a couple of weeks to try and get him 100% for the playoffs rather than have him out there at 70% or whatever he's at.
All I can think of is that it's something that can be played through but will require surgery to actually fully recover from. Maybe a hernia?
Whatever seems to be possibly ailing Adley, IMO looks like it only affects him when hitting. He sprang up outta his crouch like a Jack-in-the-Box and hustled for that foul pop/bunt yesterday and did not look like he was suffering any ill effects.
But what do I know?

What's up peeps??? Lord I needed that win yesterday!!
Then the hubs and I (and about 200 other folks LOL) met Taters at a local restaurant establishment meet and greet last night. And that was INSANE (in a good way).

I've mentioned in other places, but I'm currently "cursed". I have a decent collection of Orioles gear, but can't wear any of it because when I do, they lose. And I'm not going to be the one to jinx things. (I'll let Witchy do that). So O's shirts for me for at least another few weeks... /grumble
I look forward to purchasing some celebratory champagne this afternoon.

I updated the list on page 1. If I missed anyone, let me know. Thanks!!!

My three-year-old daughter's pure, unadulterated bliss at the sight of the rainbow that appeared between 7pm and 8pm in Eastern Baltimore County tonight."It's almost pretty as Mommy and almost bigger than you, Daddy!"
Emphasis on the 'almost' and those were her words, not mine.
That's sweet!! I wonder what she would've thought of the double rainbow we had from our Catonsville perspective. (The outside 'bow was pretty faint, but discerrnible.)
I was just leaving Cafe Hon/Hon Bar when that broke out and I got a few snaps of it with my camera phone.If I hadn't been extremely busy eating crabs on our deck, I would've gotten a pic. My hands were filthy with Old Bay, though, and the crabs were YUMMY. :002_sdrool:

Dang Trace, your life is getting to be like Friends when they went all baby/marriages on us. Boooooooooooring! I can't wait until you are back and dranking (sic) with the boyz! :beerchug1:
Bob -- believe me, no one wants me to be drinking brews more than I want to be drinking brews.
My brother and a friend came over last night, and we all went out to dinner. When they were leaving the house, my friend was on the porch and told me "This is a nice spot to sit out here and drink." No DUH -- I used to do that every summer. 
But, on a positive note -- my tolerance is going to be shot to hell. So, I'll be a very cheap date for my hubby.

Do you mean get up for an old person or an older person?
I'll get up for a lady in her 60's. Or someone holding a baby. I'm not giving up my seat to a 35-year old guy though unless there is some sort of really extenuating circumstance.
Does that include holding a baby currently in utero? Don't forget us prego ladies, Mack.
Which kinda reminds me -- very early on in my pregnancy, my coworker strongly encouraged me to use the "expectant mother/moms with small children" parking at some of our local grocery stores. I was like "WTF? I'm perfectly capable of walking a few extra feet from a 'normal' parking spot." (Caveat: on a disgustingly hot day like today, I might just use the "expectant mother/moms with small children" parking spot).

That was pretty much my thinking as well, but I think I may have read something that confirmed it. But I can't remember where and can't find it again, so I go with "I think."
Alas, we are both wrong (the Interwebs are a wonderful thing).
Former '80s sweetie Tiffany plays Mom, while the actor Adam Cagley, who looks like a mini-Loaf, steals the show as Junior (one Isaac Young ghost-sings his part).Tiffany?!?! I can't believe that is Tiffany!!! :rofl:

And I think it might actually be his kid. And wife.
That kid looks so much like Meatloaf that they've gotta be related.

The new "garlic" fries at OPACY. I was expecting garlic fries like from Red Robin (ya' know -- with actual garlic on them). Instead, I got regular ol' fries and a container of garlic salt. What an improvement. NOT.
Back to the tried and true Boardwalk Fries with some Old Bay and lots of vinegar. :002_sdrool:

There was plenty of freaking out on my part earlier in the day. The doctor actually told my wife that 107 was the danger point as far as "must go to the ER". The fact that it goes down with the meds is comforting, even if it is just for the time being.
Damn I'm good. I was reading your short rant to baroquen last night and said something like "106 is typically considered 'high fever' for a child."
Make sure your little girl is getting plenty of fluids. Popsicles might help if she's not thirsty (kinda trick your kid into getting fluids). Good luck!!

Jesus, you're preggers already?Well ya' know, I'm old. Though the actual medical terminology is "advanced maternal age."
We don't really have a lot of time to wait. Rub some of that off on my wife. We can't seem to get it to take (couple early term miscarriages, apparentately).Sorry to hear about that. Any advice from her docs? How old is she (if she doesn't mind my asking)? And how many miscarriages (if you both don't mind me asking)?
I'll be praying for you guys (I really want as many people as possible to experience this adventure).

When you're about 14 weeks pregnant and your "normal" clothes start getting uncomfortable, having your recently ordered maternity clothes show up on your doorstep is THE BEST. Having those maternity clothes fit you wonderfully is icing on the cake.

OMG I just found a gray hair.
I'M 20!!!!! HELP!!!!
I think you need to be asking Miss Clairol for help rather than the Orioles Hangout.
Don't sweat it, kid. From age 17 or so to age 30-ish, I dyed my hair. Not because of greys, but because I felt like I was truly meant to be a redhead. My mom has a beautiful head of grey hair, though. So, once I got into my 30s, I stopped dyeing my hair (just to see how my grey, if any, would look). I have some here and there. And, my natural color is a brunette with auburn highlights -- so I still have some reddish in there as well.

The Comcast “More More More” commercial with the mom and her adult son in the Chinese restaurant. The mom singing the “Baby you know my love for you is real” line is just CREEPY.

Hoochie...MAMA.
I don't mind that guy at all! But I thankfully haven't seen any rapping McNuggets.
hahahhaha I love that 'cause it reminds me of the Jawas in Star Wars.
What was the first ad salesgenie (or whatever) had? I remember it being REALLY bad, but the panda one overshadowed it.The first ad was equally racist IMO. It showed an Indian guy, who was fired/laid off and his reply was "How am I supposed to feed my 7 children?" or something like that. I was thinking "WTF?!" but the Asian-accented pandas were worse. I don't know what kind of ad agency comes up with these ideas.
That might be a good career move for me. I may not have any advertising experience what-so-ever, but I have enough sense to realize something like that is potentially offensive and racist.Witchy

“Baited breath” vs. “bated breath”
“Baited breath” means you eat worms and nightcrawlers.
“Bated breath” means “with breath drawn in or held because of anticipation or suspense: We watched with bated breath as the runners approached the finish line.”Witchy

Clueless people who attempt to talk smack.
Random co-worker: "Sooooo, what happened with Brady Anderson?"
Me: "Brady Anderson?!?! Brady Anderson wasn't named in the report."
Random co-worker: "Ohhh. He wasn't it? I thought he was."
Me: "Uhhhhh, no."
Dip$hit.

I love how some songs just “take you back.” Hearing Natalie Merchant’s “These are days” during my morning commute took me back 12 years -- to the days counting down to 2131. Prior to every home game, that song played while the in-house camera crew followed Cal's every pre-game move. And hearing the song still gives me goosebumps to this day.

I have morphed into Hank Scorpio.
I used to be Burds13. It was time for a change! Change is good, people!
Duly noted, HankBurd.

Man, I absolutely HATE those types of customers.
People like that have me seriously contemplating a change of career.

Thanks! Hubs and I have had Flex Plan Memberships for the O's season tix the past two years so we've gotten to a good number of games. With the kiddos getting to be teenagers now
they are a lot more self-sufficient and we have more free time to invest in our fave team. LOL
