A direct quote, edited slightly for profanity:

The Baltimore fans were really terrible and the city itself is a [crap]hole. CNNSI ranking Camden 5th for nicest area surrounding the ballpark is a farse. Most of what should be said belongs in P+G, but I might advise against bringing the kids to Camden in the future unless you're in a luxury box or packing heat.

and:

Just got back from the game. Great seats, but the Sox ruined my [flippin'] night along with the obnoxious Orioles fans around me. They [flippin'] screamed their heads off like it was a playoff game. Have some [flippin'] pride.

Stay classy, Red Sox fans.

Dear idiotic Red Sock fan ruining for the few of them who are actually decent people:

The word is spelled farce. The fact that you ridicule us while mispelling farce, is of itself, somewhat farcical. Mel Brooks would like to shake your hand.

Yours truly,

One of the many fans tired of you going in to Camden and acting like you own the place.

P.S. This is how I would expect to be treated at Fenway, at least if O's fans were known to act boorish at opposing fans parks.

I won't argue that some sections of Camden Yards, especially during student nights, are terribly kid friendly, or terribly opposing-fan friendly.

No denying. But if this guy is trying to say that there are no undesirables in Fenway, or that the Inner Harbor isn't a good pregame destination...well, he's just bitter they lost last night. He probably got thrown out or something, too. By surroundings, it makes me wonder if he even went past the "immediate" surroundings, because then, yes, it might not be what you'd call "superb" especially with the construction and not so good Public Transit.

Nope, and it's frackin' beautiful, too.

Good, I cannot WAIT for the day that we have tens of thousands of obnoxious fans in OUR stands offending Red Sox fans in pink hats and green jerseys as our team treats theirs just as rudely.

Stay home if you don't like Camden Yards, Sox fans. If you had a bad night, don't come back. You won't be missed.

This is GREAT!!! If this keeps just one moron Sawx fan from coming out to the Yard then I say good deal! I'm surprised he didn't throw in the ubiquitous "and some O's fan got all up in my face but I showed him and he backed down" internet tough-guy line. I'm not one to advocate obnoxious, boorish behavior but when it comes to Sux fans, screw them. Make them as uncomfortable as is legally possible when they come to our stadium, take back OUR stadium, make them not want to come to games here. It's to the point where I'd rather share a stadium with Yankee fans then them, who'd have ever thought we'd be saying that??

Oh, and can I get a link to all this? Thanks!

Yes, I'm sure if you wore O's gear to Fenway, the fans around you would join hands with you and sing Kumbaya. :grouphug:

The sad thing is that I've been in Fenway a few times for O's Sox games and no one said anything because they aren't threatened at all by us.

To be fair, this was posted over on the Sons of Sam Horn board. I'd feel differently if they were posted garbage like that on here (as some Cubs fans have done in the past), but as it stands, the idiotic opinions of a few Sox fans doesn't really rile me up.

I guess I'm getting more progressive as I age. ;):D

SOSH are such a self righteous and pompous bunch ever since they've come to national attention a few years ago.

They're awful.

Those attributes are inherent in those who root for Curt "Self-Promoter" Schilling.

I commented to baroquen last night about my trip to Fenway in '03 (granted this was before the bandwagon-hopping-post-2004-WS-win). I had a great time -- and the fans there are great. Those are the die-hards and true fans. They were very accommodating and not-at-all obnoxious. And, they were amazed and impressed that I traveled to Boston to see the O's. :D

The Boston "fans" that show up at Camden Yards are not "true" BoSox fans in my book. Driving into the city, I saw tons of cars with Virginia license plates. My best guess is that most of these "fans" are bandwagonners -- and those are the worst fans......for any team.

Boo hoo. They should have gone and complained to our ushers and gotten us kicked out of our own ballpark. Oh wait, they do that already. :rolleyes:

As for the comments on Baltimore, they must have walked in the wrong direction. Get a better map or ask one of the obnoxious O's fans where to go next time.

      Kjerstad Joining Team

      By Sydnor · Posted

      Coby Mayo is 22 years old, started the year in AAA, and currently is running a 1.043 OPS. At the same age, Cowser started the season in Aberdeen, where he had a .795 OPS. At the same age, Kjerstad wasn’t playing because of the myocarditis, so it’s not really fair to compare on that basis. However this year, Kjerstad’s OPS is 1.176, which is higher, but you have to remember that Kjerstad is 3 years older. In my opinion, having seen them both in Norfolk numerous times, Mayo is also better at third than Kjerstad is at RF. With respect to rankings, as SG said, everyone has Mayo in the top 30. That is not true for Kjerstad, and was not true for Cowser. I hope they all succeed, but Mayo is different. IMO, he’s the type of player you make room for.

      Cool thread idea. I agree with Mateo here - that was such a great little display of what he brings. He really got his money's worth for that leadoff walk, and kudos to Adley for making those 2 stolen bases count.

      Right, way to stake a claim in your first games in a number of years.  Hes just seized that opportunity and so far won't even give them the chance to think about the next guy, really impressive.

      Austin Hays 2024

      By Filmstudy · Posted

      I'm going to assume your "short rehab" includes the possibility he'll return to the O's without rehab at all.  If that's the case, our predictions of the outcomes are extremely close. With regard to the use of the word "guise" I'm not suggesting that he's not hurt, but the fact he is means the Orioles have an excellent excuse (and one that is probably more palatable to Hays) to keep him in the minors for a reset.

      Albert Suarez 2024

      By BRobinsonfan · Posted

      Obviously, he's gonna come down to earth eventually, but I like the way he looks on the mound. He has a solid, stable, balanced delivery.  Shintaro Fujinami, by contrast, always seemed precariously balanced on one leg, as if he could fall off to one side or the other at any moment. I also like the way he works up in the strike zone with the four-seam fastball and consistently is at 94 – 95 when he does. He's also getting good movement on his breaking stuff. It's nice to see him have some success, even if it ends up being fleeting, this late in his career.

      2024 Gameball Thread

      By Aristotelian · Posted

      This thread is to call out players for whatever reason. Can include obvious heroic performances (the Cedric and Westburg walkoffs) but also random high effort or baseball IQ plays that don't stand out in the box score. I'll start with one from last night's game. April 22, Orioles 4-2 Win @LAA Several great choices from this game, including Kimbrel's K of Trout with the bases loaded to close the game, and the strong start by journeyman Suarez. However, my game ball goes to Mateo. In the 3rd, he fought to 3-2 and took a tough pitch off the plate for a leadoff walk, then stole second and third. Trailing 1-0, the Angels elected to play the infield in, resulting in Adley muscling a soft liner just over the drawn in defense. Without stealing second and third, we likely end up with nothing. So not only did Mateo's speed get himself into scoring position, he also produced a RISP hit for Adley and a run for himself.

      Kjerstad Joining Team

      You can definitely make the case that this is a precursor to Holliday going down because you replace one left-handed bat with another. You can make the case against it, too, but it's a theory.  It's still a bit weird though since the guy Kjerstad effects most is (seemingly) Mountcastle, not Holliday. But I get what you're saying.
