73 and 89
The title to this post refers to what I hope the Orioles record will be at the end of the season. Yup. Still below .500 and they’re still not gonna win that many no matter how much I wish. Not with that starting rotation or that defense. They’ll still be the bumbling Orioles. Lovable, but bumbling.
It’s Camden Yards’ Twentieth Anniversary, and for 14 of those years it’s been nothing but losing. Can you imagine that after all those sold out games of its first decade? It really is hard to imagine. The promise and the reality are just hard to figure.
These 2012 Orioles have a lot to prove, but must do it in the most toughest division in baseball. Their rivals are better organizations and make the owner look retarded. If only Orioles fans could get a better owner.
Well, at least we’re in first place by virtue of the alphabet.
