I feel for you Baloo. I sure hope this game doesn't coincide with that time of the month.

Rich Garcia was standing right there and missed the call. Screw you and your lazy fat arse. Still, not the worst call from that era. John Hirschbeck missing the bunt, allowing Grissom to steal home in 1997 was worse. The lesson here is: Alomar never should've spit in his face.

I was raised a Cubs fan and will always HATE the American League, but I've always had a soft spot for the O's since the 1990's. I loved Brady Anderson, Alomar, Mussina (pre-traitorous turn), Arthur Rhodes

I hate fricking Jeremy Baier! That fricker with his reach over the outfield fence. When they showed him on Sportscenter for playing fricking high school and college baseball I wanted to fricking throw up. that piece of shite

It's Jeffrey Maier, but I bear him no ill will. He was a kid reaching for a ball. I hate the umpire who blew the call.

And Moose re-signed once with the O's. He didn't bolt until the early 00s when things were just incredibly awful. The Orioles let Mussina down, not vice versa.

No doubt, it was just tough to root for him in a Yankees uni

I didn't root for him in New York, but I didn't hate him. And I welcomed him with open arms when he made the Oriole Hall of Fame. No hard feelings, Moose.

You may not, but I still think he is a load is mother should have swallowed. That little bastard got on Good Morning New York after that.

to the wifey for being a legit fan. Glad to know I'm not the only chick to break shite over a game.

My bf is a Louisville fan. We have to impose a 24 hour buffer when our teams play in football and basketball. And even then we just don't go there because it can get ugly in a hurry.

We didn't talk for a solid week after the Final Four this last year. Prayers sent.

I'm going to the game! She's staying home so she can brainwash our daughter (also, she went to the f'n World Series without me last year).

If you hear one lone voice shouting "O!" during the national anthem on the broadcast tonight... that's me.
