I know it's tough for Chris and everyone, but I have to admit this made me LOL.

Oh, man, that's comedic gold. They probably decided to do that, unironically, last year or something, and just got around to painting the bus based on their expectation that Davis wouldn't be the laughing stock of MLB this year.

Now, that Reddit tagline is just so memetic that I wouldn't be surprised if all of MLB is laughing about it by the time the week's out. Then it will become a general meme on the Internet like apathetic Reynolds eating his seeds as a guy trots by with a homer.

His dumb contract makes him the only Oriole that definitely will be around for a little bit.

Well that means that the bus riders of Baltimore will remain safe.

Sounds like something I would come up with, I approve.

Hopefully the Orioles are being paid an appropriate um....fee for this service.

Naw, you're just internet famous.  It's just a tiny step up from being high school famous.

I bet the Orioles decide to pay to have Davis on the buses as they know he is going to be on the team 4 1/2 years.

I heard Davis say he trained with Coolbaugh many times over the winter to learn to drive a bus.Coolbaugh says he only saw him once and he was not driving but just staring down the middle of the bus.Davis almost got into an accident but Buck had him cleanup.

Aren't there lots of times when these buses just won't move at all and stand there watching traffic go by, when an ordinary bus would be in motion?

Oh they are moving, they are just very slow.
