For those who don't follow baseball, the Orioles haven't been relevant since we gave them Frank Robinson. The past season saw the Battling Birds compile a 52-110 record, finishing a discouraging 48 games out of first. Even more (less?) impressive, the Orioles ended their season 39 games out of fourth. Probably clinched last place sometime in July. Seriously. No wonder this guy is bitter.
Oh yeah, he also describes himself as a Maryland Terrapin fan. Terps are about as bad in the Big Ten as the Orioles in the AL East. That 66-17 pasting from Ohio State had to be hard for him.
Didn't the Orioles get a moment or two of fame, back in the '90s, for the consecutive games played guy?
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
