All in good fun folks! I know @Militant X 1 is a Yankees fan so I'm glad to know isn't just the both of us. Good shit @Giants56Ravens52 !
No of course not. But I just didn't know you went for the pinstripes.What? You thought that....................................................because I'm a Ravens fan........................................................I'm also............................................ an ORIOLES fan??????????????
until the chris davis saga is complete and we no longer feel the sting of watching nelson cruz and andrew miller leave as a result of his comtract, ill say fuck the orioles
Understood. Truth be told, I've never been a big baseball fan. ONLY reason why I roll with the pinstripes is because my dad and some of his family are Yankees fans. In my life, I've been to two Yankees games: one in 2011 in NY (it was like mist literally came from the sky that day) and one this past season in Tampa (75-80% Yankees fans in that arena, I might add).No of course not. But I just didn't know you went for the pinstripes.
Totally wrong! It was the NFL's fault. They could have had the opener at home but they chose to use the "religious holiday" as an excuse, even though we play on Christmas. The O's had their schedule set already, it would have affected them negatively. The other team didn't want to move it either. So really, how is that the Orioles' fault? It isn't.

i thought the ravens had to play on the road because the Orioles were playing on the Thursday at home and so the Ravens couldn't play at home...
did i miss something?
Yes that is correct. But they could have played on that Wednesday, there was absolutely no reason they could not have. They said it was because it was a Jewish holiday and they couldn't play on a religious holiday. It's total bull crap.
Well it was an option that was talked about and why not play then? I think they could have played a night game on that following Sunday too, but I'm not sure about that.i had no idea wednesday was ever an option - tbf it would be pretty odd for the NFL to played on a wednesday lol
that'would have been Rosh Hashana, the jewish new year. I've seen teams play on Rosh Hashana and Yom Kipper on multiple occasions. It was total baloney.Yes that is correct.

Absolutely! Live in VA but born and raised in New York.
Yankees fan but never really been a Knicks, Jets, Mets or a Giants fan (per se). Although, I did cheer for the Knicks to play well during the Patrick Ewing era and the Giants when they won their Super Bowls. However, when they played and got destroyed by our Ravens that was bittersweet!
I think it was the Os that would have moved to Wednesday. Right?
I wish I was a Yankees fan. Growing up in CT, I could have chosen the Yankees or even the Red Sox to root for, but my dad was able to steer me towards becoming a Mets fan. FML

When you play 162 games in 6 months all over the country and have to also account for rainouts it can be tough to make a move that may seem simple.Pretty sure the proposal was for a Wednesday night game. @The Greek wrote a great post about it on the old boards. The point is it was the NFL's responsibility to make it work, not MLB's. The White Sox did not want to move the game either. It is easy to blame the O's but it is short-sighted.
