What would you do if you were at the game tonight?

The "boo or not to boo" debate starting in 3....2....1.....

[brooks1083]

For the record, I don't see any reason to boo him even if I were a "fan of booing". I mean he played hard while he was here under some pretty miserable teams, he had some injuries his last couple of years but he worked through them to come back. I don't really get why there would be hatred.

You give him a huge ovation in his first at bat and then you cheer or boo according to the game dynamics each at-bat/play after that. He gave the majority of his career to the city and was one of if not the best player on some of the worst teams in club history.

You do not boo.

[Can_of_corn]

I would just sit there.

We are the best fans in baseball. Please take the high road tonight.

IMO you boo a guy like Tex who leaves his home town hanging for the rivals and says he wanted to be there all along. You do not boo a guy like Roberts who played many years in this city and only left to NY because they were the only ones offering a job. You'll see the split between the classy and the classless of Baltimore in his first at bat.

Stand up and applaud. Save the boo's for the A-Rods of the world, Brian is not one of them. Looking at the direction of the O's and Yanks, he probably would much rather be wearing orange anyway.

[hendu]

He hasn't been relevant to the O's in a few years. Booing him would just make us look like buffoons.

[mdbdotcom]

Stand up en masse and shout, "Who?"

No reason to boo the guy. He's a shell of his former self and we didn't offer him a contract.

I would just sit there.

This. Or maybe a brief golf clap to acknowledge his long time Orioleness. Then it's on to the Brian Roberts, Yankee, era where you just reflexively boo their every move.

We can give him a big ovation in a few years when he's inducted into the Oriole HOF and he's not wearing pinstripes.

I will nothing him.

Put me down for the golf clap.
