Sports Illustrated's preview: Baltimore Orioles

[Slidemaster]

I'm glad to be wrong so far. We'll see how (or if) it continues.

glad to be wrong? you changed teams before the year started

I like the Rangers. The Orioles are playing far better than expected, but that doesn't change the fact that I still follow the Rangers too (though not as closely as the O's).

And, frankly, if you have a problem with that, I don't care.

Why? Do you care that much about my baseball allegiances?

I think you just have too much negativity pent up with no place to release it because of the orioles competitive start and you are looking to unload on me

feel free

It's amusing that you think the Orioles hot start is causing me distress. I clapped my hands in my car today listening to the end of the game.

It's posters like you who like to pretend that they saw this all along, and who claim that nobody had the right to complain coming into this season that irritate me.

And for the record, don't try to make this into a situation where I'm attacking you out of frustration. You engaged me here.

do you even try to make sense?

[Slidemaster]

If that doesn't make sense, you need a class in reading comprehension. I'll simplify it for you.

Glad the O's won.

I'm annoyed at posters like you who think everyone should just be satisfied with 14 years of losing.

You started making digs at me and then told me I just want to attack you. Doesn't work that way, Ace (I picked another name for you).

you cant even finish a post without an insult..are you that unhappy with your life and the Os that you need to try to convey it onto me?

arguing with you makes no sense because it is all about how the Os displease you

good luck with that

Actually, I'm very happy with my life, thanks for asking.

I bring up how the O's displease me because YOU consistently tell me I shouldn't have been upset about the last 14 years, or let it affect my outlook on the team. If you don't want to talk about that, don't bring it up, yeah?

I followed the Twins for a few years.

Their AAA club is here and they used to play good ball.

The true test of character is the courage to adapt and accept. I questioned Flacco last year until he proved me dead wrong in the championship game. I questioned the O's this spring but held hope deep down that the young pitchers would gel and the bullpen would surprise. Like many, I whined about the lack of minor league talent and I wondered if guys like Reimold, Davis and Andino had the stuff to step up!

At some point only the chronic deny the success and they in turn prove their lack of character. I don't perceive you as that type of guy. Wayne was that guy. Ghost Oriole was that guy. Locker combo personifies that guy as does TM in the other extreme. I just found your comments in the past mostly valid if jaded and skewed at times. Am I wrong?

Nope. I'm just not ready to believe what we've seen yet. If they continue to prove it I'll have no choice and I'd be glad to see that happen.

Real fans always have hope and belief in the team they root for the hardest. What you display above is classic bandwagonism.

How many games have you been to this year?

Real fans care when their team wins or loses.

You haven't cared if the team loses for 14 years, if not longer. Again, all you're a fan of is the attention you crave here on this website.
