ORIOLES

It was a great game yesterday!  I had to go to a job in the field yesterday or I would have left work to go!  Got to listen to it on the drive back and finish watching it at home though.

I will admit it…I cried when they won and I knew they wouldn't be a losing team this year.

Which makes you the anti-Rhett. 

I think 99.9% of baseball fans and even O's fans expected another losing season, as I did. Very pleased they're proving me wrong.

While I realize hindsight is 20/20, if you check Buck's career everywhere he's been his team has experienced an incredible turnaround in his second full year.  History repeats.

I'm not going to lie.  I expected a losing season.  But, I have this great picture of me in the Orioles dugout at Fanfest, leaning on the rail like Buck, staring out at the field in January covered in snow where I'm thinking "I hope the Orioles are still winning in September this year".

It's my favorite picture of 2012.

this is pretty much the greatest thing ever LOL

love it.

Don't stop now.  I need you to sweep this weekend.  Badly.

I'm going to buy two tickets for the Wild Card Game in Oakland, just in case.

If the Birds make it and Anaheim doesn't, Venerable is going to need someone to go with him. ..

I was thinking about buying Wild Card tickets for here.  They're 180 on stubhub.  Husband didn't want to get a 13 game plan for next year to guarantee purchase!  ugh.

We did put our little light 'em up Oriole player on our lawn the other night when they were guaranteed a winning season.  It was funny watching the neighbors walk past.

Going to the double header next Monday!  Excited.

$180 already?  :(  Hoping I can get playoff tix for less than that.

They don't officially go on sale until saturday.  That's for the wild card game.  Playoff tickets are around 90 right now.

Totally wanted to go to the doubleheader Monday ($4 and $8 seats for two games!), but realized it was back to school night at my kid's school.

Thinking about Tues or Wed…

Yeah, I understand they aren't on sale yet - I've registered.  I just expect that getting tix thru the public sale is going to be very, very difficult.  The secondary market might be the only way.

I'm going to all four games against Toronto next week, thanks to throwback ticket pricing.

That's awesome!  Got my ticket for Monday! 

Going to the last 2 home games too.

Also, the 4 dollar seats…you smell like a campfire after you leave because of boog's bbq.  The view is cool, but after a while I just didn't want to smell smoked meats anymore.

bought the 8 dollar seats in section 9.

We're Number #3!

Miguel Cabrera=triple crown winner?

I'm all for being a family man, but missing tonight's game because of the birth of your FIFTH child this MORNING? Inexcusable, Mr. Pujols.

If you're still watching this, you're awesome.
