brewers fandom remains a curse of unimaginable cruelty
#302
True, no one deserves the fate of having been psychologically conditioned to feel compelled to watch baseball

the thing about people making fun of baseball is it just makes baseball fans feel superior
#306

good. fuck the yankees.

#313
i just realized the moral imperative is to support the orioles against the yankees in the AL east. being a mariners fan makes you lose perspective of whats important, it kind of turns the season into an aimless RPG style thing where u just watch your boys "develop" i.e. fail to meet grandiose expectations

As other major league teams are said to be lining up to check out this latest talent to defect from Cuba, the Orioles may be out of the running.

"We - Mr. Angelos in particular - feel that it best not to do anything that could be interpreted as being disrespectful or ... encouraging players to defect," Syd Thrift, the O's vice president for baseball operations told the Washington Times in May.

The team's apparent desire not to hire defectors for fear of insulting Cuban President Fidel Castro - an issue that the U.S. Justice Department recently decided to investigate - has Morales looking elsewhere for employment.

While Orioles officials have backed off from the statement, Republican Sen. Jesse Helms of North Carolina, a longtime Castro antagonist, succeeded in getting the Justice Department to investigate the team for possible discrimination in hiring practices.

old story but ahah jesse helms rofl
#315
also: the Orioles were also the only team unwilling to employ scabs during the strike in 1994.
