  1. It is a shame that the Ravens season is over and I can hear the crickets chirping on this board. I think we are all just too depressed knowing what this season is going to bring to even bother with making a post. Maybe we can still pick up some players so we won't be out of the running before the All-Star break. Still holding onto a super small glimmer of hope. Please God grant me a miracle, isn't there any Orioles magic around anywhere that we might be able to find?

  2. Wow just got back from Pittsburgh last night after being up at the in-laws since Christmas Day, so I did not hear about Paul Blair as I had no computer access. I am so depressed. I got a baseball signed by him at the Shorebirds game this summer. What a great guy. I told him that I remembered when he beat Al Bumbry in that race they had around the bags, he got a big kick out of that. He will be missed. Rest in peace my good man.

  3. Pics or I dont believe you ;)

    Ok I will prove it, but first you have to guide me on how to upload pics to the "Reply to this topic" section because I have no idea how you guys do it. I can click and type and even add a smiley face every once in a while but that is the extent of it. I will even post some pics of my other rides. The purple escort station wagon was my wife's grandfathers car and it was sentimental to her. When he died I bought it to keep it in the family and brought it back to Baltimore to use as my beater car to drive into the Northeastern District Stationhouse. Trust me, as a police officer, you don't want to drive anything super nice around the streets of Baltimore on a daily basis. Although, I have to admit, the city has been trying to improve that with operation "orange cone." But anyone who lives or works in Baltimore CIty and drives it daily knows that it can be hard on a vehicle. I put a lot of miles on that car!

    My wife tells me the story of the day he bought it back in Pittsburgh. She went with him and he said to her, "What do you think of it?" and she replied, "But Pap, it's purple!" and she said his reply was "I know ain't it great!"
