People who were never capable of providing any reasonable analysis in the first place aren't in much of a position to remind anybody of the facts. Hypothetically speaking.

Not hypothetically speaking - that sounds awfully harsh. I think a lot of people on this board - maybe me included - don't understand how harsh the things they say sound - and forget we're just fans here. We're not professionals, and we're not competing for anything real here. It's supposed to be FUN - especially during a great series with the Yankees,

Yes, but a thread that was about fans getting hysterical too soon over a losing streak, has become a thread about a poster's need to portray him self as a victim. He's not a troll IMO, but the people who enable him are suckers, IMO.

Nope. Not a victim. Just tired of the hypocrites.

I suppose you're right. I certainly find being repeatedly referred to as a hypocrite, homer, and an apologist to be quite the blast. Double the fun when it's from a know-nothing, straw-man making whiner.

Not hypothetically speaking, this could, and probably was intended to be a fun light hearted thread.

Just so everyone knows, apparently the phrase "wet the bed" or some such thing has been used enough that the google ads on this page are now for latex mattresses.

Well done folks.

I laughed the first time I saw that one. It made me wonder if I was looking up too weird stuff and the adtracker was punishing me.

Denial is not just a river in Egypt.

And now I feel like all the effort I put in the past couple days got completely flushed. I should have listened to Homer, this is what I get for trying.

I'm closing this thread because it's going nowhere now and some people just can't help breaking the rules. As always, if someone bothers you to the point that you are getting infractions for your tone back, put them on ignore!

      Playoff Roster

      By Winter · Posted

      If any combination of Irvin, Flaherty, Fuji, Baumann with the locks of Gibson, Webb, Wells, Hall, Coulombe, Cano, Perez are all in the bullpen im not sure we need 13 pitchers.    Is 3 long men really needed(Gibson/Irvin/Flaherty) with days off? Hall/Wells can go more than 1. No doubt Kremer would be the one who could turn it up out of the BP opposed to Gibson BUT if Kremer can give you a start of 5 good innings as a 4th starter thats hard to pass on. -- Hyde wants to play matchups like crazy of late so i do think they'll take 13. O's love close games, old extra inning rules could be a factor in need for more length.

      Many Reasons to be Optimistic for the Postseason

      Mullins too.  Seems like only Adley has been fairly hot lately.  Hopefully Mountcastle's double tonight will get things going for everyone else.  Fingers crossed the several days off they'll get next week will help reenergize things.

      The 2023 attendance thread

      By seak05 · Posted

      I got through the gate at 5, was in line 4:45ish? And got a hoodie. It was pretty packed. Think some people just went for the hoodie though and then left early.    it was a different vibe at the ballpark, totally full, but people were just chilling and having fun, not really paying attention to the game, since the game itself didn’t mean much

      How long does your blank check for Elias last?

      By Moose Milligan · Posted

      I can see why people would say a WS win would solidify him as an elite GM but as pointed out the playoffs are a crap shoot. Elias isn’t at fault if the pitching craps the bed or if the bats go cold.    He already is elite. He’s stocked this franchise with more good young talent than we could have hoped. As long as the Orioles keep making the playoffs and as long as he keeps good talent coming through the system that’s what he’ll be judged on. In addition to being at the vanguard of how to pick up guys like O’Hearn, etc., that’s important too.

      4th Playoff Starter: Gibson vs. Kremer

      By PsychoBird68 · Posted

      Gibson starts game 3 on the road and Means starts game 4 with Kremer in the pen as the longman with Means and Gibson on very short leashes...
