Go Orioles, beat ChokeSox
All together, Orioles fans, let's gather around your MASN tonight and transport our collective orange-and-black karma to Boston with the Birds so they have a lovely run against the Sox, who we are eager to see choke again. Remember, this is what that franchise is notorious for. (News to the Obnoxious Red Sox Nation: The Orioles haven't won a World Series in 24 years, but they've been in six since 1966 and won three of them. The Red Sox have only one one Series in nearly 90 years. Never has a franchise gotten so much hype for such little achievement, and who have the Sox put into the Hall of Fame lately?)
Anyway, we're rooting for our Orioles, and hoping the Sox return to their old ways. Can't happen, you say? In 1978, what was the Sox lead over the Yankees at the All-Star break? 14 games? Yeah, somethin' like that. Something sick. And hopefully it will happen again.

Although I find Red Sox fans to be unsufferable, I would still prefer to see Mike Mussina go another year without a World Series ring. I understand why he left Baltimore (Peter Angelos), but I will never forgive him for signing with the Yankees- especially after he vowed that he would never play for a New York team.
