I can't make fun of this. I'm a Pirates fan.

I can't make fun of it either. I'm a Cleveland sports fan..

I understand that the Orioles won't be playing at home during the National this year - maybe this is a good thing?!

However, just down the road, the rapidly-rising Washington Nationals will be playing at home in their near-new stadium - Wed. & Thurs. nights against the Phillies and Friday & Sat. nights plus Sunday afternoon against Miami. This just may be the year my Nats make the playoffs!!

Pretty humorous. I'm a White Sox fan, but I like to root for the O's when their interests don't conflict. I was 11 years old when Ripken broke the consecutive games record, and I've had a soft spot for the O's ever since. I'm also a fan of the Royals when its convenient, since a bunch of my extended family is from KC and are Royals fans.

Basically, I tend to root for teams that are currently no threat at all to the White Sox...not that the White Sox are expected to be any threat this season.

What would this thread be without a reply from a long-suffering Cubs fan? Go Cubbies! This is our year! Dale Sveum will lead us to the promised land!

Atleast your teams don't spend $90M+ a year and still manage to suck. Oh it's rough being a Mets fan...

I do think we'll be around .500 this season though.

As an Orioles fan since 1966, I have lived the great years and the good years. I chuckled the other day when I realized that the college kids today are not old enough to remember even a .500 season let alone a championship season.

Goin south to OPCY in two weeks to hopefully, watch our trainwreck of a team lose to dem birds. It's all about bringing the Evil Empire down now

The O's are somehow finding ways to win. I love watching this team play as they seem to always play hard. The play Macahdo made at third on Wednesday was just awesome.

As an O's fan, it has been fun, real fun. They will probably lose to the A's tonight. A horrible travel schedule after playing a 14 inning game yesterday. This road trip will be a real test and could determine if they are playing in the playoffs this year.

Hope Baltimore finds a way to play the way they look on paper: mediocre.

As a fan of baseball, however, it's neat to see the A's and O's make a mockery out of the Angels and Yankees with their incredible payrolls. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for each team.

May the A's and Angels get in, and may the Yank's watch baseball from their couches come the postseason!
