when in the fuck have Os fans thought they had a shot at the postseason? (Since 1997)

Everyone knows since "The catch" as I like to call it(97 playoffs yankee stadium bot7th right field wall) O's have been cursed with not making it to the playoffs like the Expos(Nats w/e u prefer to call them). I give them only 65 wins and they need all the help in the world...btw this is coming from a Marylander too....

I'm pretty sure I haven't used the words "Orioles" and "playoffs" in the same sentence since before Cal retired.

4 things

1) thraxle you are such a bandwagoner. look at your favorite teams, you suck. pick a section in the country and stick to one group of teams, you can't span favorite teams from NC, Northern ME, to South Bend IN. You're such a tool.

2) since when are 17 and 15 million dollar deals bargains?

3) thraxle it's called jumping the beltway, a lot of NOVA and Marylanders joined ravenstown, idiot, not atlanta & new england.

4) Jp 1998, the year after we went to the playoffs, who wouldn't gamble on a repeat?

Pretty sure I explained my reasoning for liking each team. Notre Dame games = televised. Duke games = televised. Boston Celtics = loved Larry Bird. Redskins/O's/Caps = my local teams. You have to remember, I live near Norfolk, VA which has exactly ZERO major colleges and ZERO major pro sports teams, so accordingly, my allegiances went with who I could follow on TV the majority of the time. Each one of my teams is televised locally most of the time with the exception of the Celtics.

You obviously didn't feel my sarcasm. I was taking a shot at the Yankees. Pay attention.

I didn't call anyone out specifically other than the two teams that are the most successful in the NFL so far this year. I was merely stating that I've been a fan of a team that has pretty much blown for the past 19 years. Every team I root for today, I also rooted for when I was about 10 years old. I've done ZERO jumping. The only team I've added to my list is Virginia Tech football and that's because I went to a bunch of games there in my early 20's and had friends at Tech. Notre Dame is still my #1.

So it's been 12 years instead of 13.....whoooopeee!!!!!! : )

By the way, you called me an idiot, a tool, and a bandwagoner all in one post. Quite unneccesary. Stop acting like an assclown.

ya wish, leave that up to yodel

Oh come on, it's all in good fun. Can't we all bash a little bit?
