1-0. I'm about to show you rookies and youngsters how to cap a mutha fukkin game.
These games during this riot are an absolute GOLD MINE!
This one is just as easy to cap as today's game!
Now try to pay attention this time. I told you what would happen and it did. Now... this coming up series was supposed to be played in Baltimore, but as we all know, the riots fukked that up and unfortunately (fortunately for us betters ) the series will have to be played in Tampa Bay. All of the players on the Orioles know that the entire country is watching how they do. Each and every single one of them. Hell, the game ended early afternoon and it's still on the front page of ESPN as well as a lot of other sports sites. The players knowing that the fans cannot attend their home games for God knows how long to support them is absolutely crushing them. That is why they absolutely went off on offense today.
One announcer said there were fans outside of the stadium supporting them!! That had to absolutely tear the Orioles up inside knowing that. Knowing that their own supporters can't see them play live, but they are sticking with them through thick and thin being out there. You can bet after the game, the players got word that there were tons of fans outside of the stadium cheering for them and watching the game on TV. That no doubt brought a huge surge of emotion to the players and they now see the fans as being their own family more then ever during these dark days.
This game is the talk of the country right now and will continue talk of the country until the Orioles play again in Tampa Bay.
The conversations going on right now.
Bill: Did you know the Orioles game at Camden Park was closed to the public?
Bob: No I didn't know that, but I'm not surprised. It's a mad house out there.
Bill: I saw it on tv. The stadium was completely empty! I've never seen anything
like it in the MLB. Chris Davis cracked the living shit out of a ball for a 3 run homer in the 1st inning! You should have seen it.
Bob: Wow in the 1st inning? Was there any sound at all?
Bill: NO! That's what made it so weird and eerie!! When the ball landed you could actually hear it hit the floor!
Bob: GODDAMN SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a typical conversation between 2 middle aged women that don't even watch sports. They just saw the news on the front page of yahoo while checking their email or browsing CNN.
Betty: Did you hear that the Baltimore riots have gotten so bad that they closed a baseball game (I think that is what you call it) from the public?
Susie: Yes dear. I just got back from running errands and saw it while checking my email. Things must be pretty crazy down there.... Anyways dear, how was your day? I have been calling my husband all day and he is not answering. He seems to be gone for long periods of time lately and I don't know where he goes.
Betty: uhhhhhhhh........ I have no idea.... But I will call you back later, ok? CLICK!

Conversation #3
Son: Dad today was so cool. I really wish we could have been at that game. It looked so cool when Chris Davis hit that homerun! NO ONE WAS IN THE STANDS. it was so awesome!
Dad: it sure would have been.
Son: Man I wish we were there. We could have caught that homer!
Dad: I'll tell you what son. We are going to take a trip down to Florida and spend the weekend there. We can watch them play and we can hang out at the beach. How does that sound?
Son: AWESOME! lets go!!!! maybe Chris Davis will hit another homer and I will catch it!

Now here's where it gets very interesting. With the series being moved to Tampa, the Orioles will have a lot of time to think about what happened today on their way down there. They are filled with emotion knowing that fans were outside the gates supporting them amid all of the chaos and they are thankful for that and it showed because they put on quite the display today. They know there will be lots of fans that will make the travel with them and will be right there in Tampa Bay cheering them on. But most importantly, THE CHILDREN that look up to these guys will travel along with their parents to watch their heroes play. This time not on a television or outside of the stadium or listening to a radio broadcast, but UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL! You go ahead and try to tell me what will strike a Orioles players heart more than seeing a little kid with their jersey on with a catchers mitt on their hand that traveled all the way from Baltimore having the time of their lives during these times of unsettling events? these guys are heroes and idols to these kids. THE CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE!
One last thing. I'm reading the headlines on USA TODAY. It says the Rays are relieved. Let me say this one more time incase you didn't hear it the first time. RELIEVED that they didn't have to play in Baltimore.... Here is the link
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...oved/26542037/
Let that sink in for a minute. What they are saying is they don't want to play in that piece of shit hell hole and FUKK BALTIMORE! That no doubt struck a chord to the Oriole players. The Rays are coming back home from Yankee Stadium and all the Rays will talk about on the way back is "thank God we are not playing in that shit hole". They are on their phones right now talking to their families with a great sigh of relief that they will be playing at home, so they will be able to spend some extra time with their family. They aren't focused on baseball. The article clearly said that they are RELIEVED that they aren't playing there. That is all that is on their minds and it will be what is on their minds while Baltimore is kicking their heads in on May 1st.
I don't know what the ML is right now, but whatever it is TAKE IT AND DON'T LOOK BACK. THIS IS AS EASY AS IT GETS! I'm not even worried about the under or over this game. TAKE THIS GAME STRAIGHT UP!!!!!!!
BALTIMORE MONEYLINE FOR MAY 1ST!!!!
