There's nothing wrong with that post at all, some prefer football over baseball no matter the teams. Others prefer winners over losers no matter the sport. There is no need to acknowledge every perceived slight to the Orioles, granted some have merit and some don't (and I certainly am not the one to judge which do). But there is nothing classless about this post, I think your nitpicking a little bit, but to each his own.

Yeah, bad taste.

This also seems so unlike the Ravens I wonder if there is something going on.

Then again...almost 9,000 likes.

People will like everything though, I swear there are robots who would like a status about the world about to blow up haha.

Seriously??

That's like a hot chick c-blocking her homely best friend at a bar because she wasn't getting enough attention.

Agreed - f&^% 'em. Another part of that "ug, football only real sport" mentality I can't stand. I know a lot of folks here don't fall into the category, but most Ravens fans I've personally encountered have been hyper-trash-talking, obnoxious twits. Many fine examples in the comments section of that post as well. Why feign good will in the previous post then follow up with that?

I'll add: Though a native Marylander, I grew up in a time when football was absent from Baltimore. I like football as well as baseball, but didn't get everything twisted when the Ravens came into existence and decide to abandon the Redskins (or the Orioles), as many woeful times as they have had. I also didn't abandon the Orioles when the current iteration of the Nationals came into being, even though I've always lived closer to D.C. than Baltimore. Robotic football fans who only become fans because they feel the need to be "badass" or only root for a team when the team is winning need to grow up.

I think a lot of people have used the Ravens to overcompensate for the O's being so bad these last 15 years to the point of becoming annoying fans.

Gotta think this happens with the Steelers fans and the Pirates too.

All I took from this is that some people like football over baseball. I'm the same way only reversed.

They didn't make any reference to the Orioles. I don't see the big deal but I'm sure one will be made of it.

It's funny that this got posted, but the FB post earlier today where the Ravens supported the O's doesn't get mentioned. I would post it directly, but not sure how....

Basically it's a picture of the Oriole bird at the Ravens game with a Ravens jersey (Poe in the background) with the caption "Happy Orioles Opening Day!

LIKE this to show your support for both Baltimore birds!"
