Eddie, I'm confused.

You said that you wanted to have a discussion and you didn't like my short replies.  So I made a long one. You didn't like that one either, but your response was short and didn't say anything except something that I never said.  I think you're being intentionally dense here so there's not much left to say.  I think my point was very clear.  I didn't call you names (just returned a dig that you tossed at me, but certainly that hasn't upset you this much) and now I've got this jackwagon telling me to leave my children without a father.

As for the other comment I made regarding this cretin who is levying threats and hatred, I think it's pretty clear that was a tongue in cheek comment. If you want to have a discussion, you can DM me, no one needs to see this back and forth.

Look this may not have been the proper thread.  I didn’t like your comment which I thought was ignorant, not saying you are. I took it as because my opinion was different it wasn’t acceptable. I did go on for awhile but if I make a point and not explain why then that gets nowhere. 

I appreciate you saying you are sorry. As far as I’m concerned it’s over. 
 

I have been on this board for years. I don’t say things I don’t believe and I’m not some clown who deliberately tries to stir the pot. When you come home from work in September listening to a child in my kids “virtual” class struggling to read basic sentences while your wife’s niece is teaching in a maskless full class in Florida it kind of gets to me.

At some point, it needs to be that vaccines are available... get one or don't. Wear a mask or don't, it's up to the individual. People that have the vaccine, you're protected so don't worry about

Comments like this are a joke. I guess we should just let the powers in control do whatever they want whenever they want. I guess real world evidence and science before 2020 should be ignored. I guess

Baltimore cities vaccination rate stands at 45% as of today, so it may be a while before the O's remove their mask mandate.

But arent some of the fans outside the city limits, basing it on their vaccination rate seams a bit silly.,

To be fair to the O's, it isn't "their" mask mandate.   They are following the orders of the Mayor of the city in which they play.

FWIW, crowd shots in the Twins series seemed to show very few people wearing masks.   Now of course the people you see in those shots are typically in the expensive lower box seats, maybe they aren't enforcing it there as much as they are for the riffraff in other sections.   I'll be upper deck riffraff tonight, albeit Row 1 own the 3B line.   I'll report back on enforcement later on...

Good points. Watched the Cubs-Padres game on tv Wednesday afternoon, attendance was over 22K, and I didn't see anyone at Wrigley wearing a mask. Nats are also mask-free now, and full capacity in less than a week. Orioles could certainly request a waiver to the city restrictions.

Good luck tonight, weather is looking very suspect.

Looks like most of the worst stuff is going south of us.   But it is the type of weather pattern where a thunderstorm could pop up at any time in the afternoon/evening, though.   But it probably wouldn't last long.

Im south of the park, which is why I thought the weather was looking bleak for a game tonight.

I hope you all get it in, rain delays are never fun at the park.

I was at the game Wednesday.   Like the other game I attended, I nursed two beers veeeerrrrryyyyy sloooooowwwlllllyyy through nine innings, along with a bag of peanuts.   So, I wore a mask maybe 20 minutes out of a three hour game    We were sitting on the aisle, nobody was to our right, and there was nobody directly in front of us for 3-4 rows    I saw lots of people not masking up at all who were not eating or drinking, and no enforcement of the mask rule at all.   But I did see other people wearing masks all game.    On the concourse, most people were wearing masks.   Paid attendance was under 6,000 so there was plenty of space around.   I did notice two sections where large groups were attending a game together that were more densely packed.

Nats back to full capacity effective today, 6/9/2021, and no masks.  

https://wtop.com/washington-nationals/2021/06/nationals-park-makes-changes-to-ballpark-protocols-as-capacity-restrictions-lift/

"Fully-vaccinated fans will be able to attend Nats games without a face mask in both indoor and outdoor areas within the stadium. Those not fully vaccinated are required to wear a mask at all times, unless they are eating or drinking within their ticketed seat."

This still has me wondering - who is going to say that they are unvaccinated at this point?

      Elias…DFA Kimbrel now!!

      I think yesterday was the nail in the coffin for him being on the playoff roster, assuming we make it.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      By NashLumber · Posted

      I feel that way, too. I keep thinking about 2005.  2005: 10 games over .500 on June 20th. 1st place, two games up.  Shortly after they went on a 2-16 skid, and their last game at .500 was at the the start of that awful home 4 game series in late July when the White Sox swept them, and Raffy was exposed as taking PEDs. They fell under .500 that series and kept on sinking.  2024: 24 games over .500 on June 20th. 2nd place, a half game back.  Then immediately lose five straight. Due to their great start, they can't finish 14 under .500, but the dive feels eerily similar with all of the injuries, dormant bats, and all happening at the same time of year.  The floor coming out from underneath them feels a lot like it. That team was cooked by late July and by the first week of August, Mazzilli got the axe. That won't happen with Hyde this time, as they had a fine start this year, but this can't happen two years in a row under him.

      I know …. Gotcha. Trade away Stowers & Norby for Garbage and pick up Rivera & Jiminez. And be surprised when you offense stinks.

      It’s because the strategies that they are taught and employ work much better in the minors with pitchers with worse stuff and command than in the majors.  This, in turn, inflates their minor league stats.  The good news is that thus far after an adjustment period those players do seem to adjust and do well.

      Hyde Hot Seat

      By SilverRocket · Posted

      This was the lineup today: The problem is injuries. Hyde didn't have to run out this sort of lineup in May or June. You can nitpick about whether these were the right nine to start, but these are the players on the roster right now and it's because guys who were here in the winning months are not available.

      I think you agree Roy. The injuries are one thing, but combining them with the continual influx of rookies/ near-rookies - (as promising as they may be) creates instability.  Holliday, Cowser, Mayo, Norby, Kjerstad, Povich, even Stowers.  The past two years: Rutschman and Henderson. One rookie, a solid unremarkable, yet reliable core that had been playing together for several years. Maybe Elias needs to answer for this. I’m not buying the injury excuse for position players. The pitching - amazing job for the injury plague (Kimbrel not included). Have to wonder if these injuries have something to do with the training staff don’t you?
