Ok, so I stole the headline from the great Peter Schmuck, so sue me. This past week has been probably the most fun week of watching Orioles baseball I’ve had since the 1997 season, and I spent most of that season working at a Boy Scout camp and checking the box scores in the paper whenever …

Busy Week
Ravens are in the playoffs!!! I’m pretty excited about this. Preseason the ravens were picked to finish last in their division, and win about 4 games. Now they are sitting at 11 and 5 and play the Dolphins in the first round this week. So exciting. Besides watching football, it’s been a busy week around …

Taking a break
*Deep breath* Ok I’ve finished the gauntlet of four major projects in three weeks for classes this semester. After that I got to work on Zach’s new room. I finally finished that up last night. So, before I jump right back in doing more house work and school work I’m allowing myself a zero day today. …

Sibling Rivalry
Last night I handed in the final papers I had due in my three week marathon of four major projects for school. I don’t have anything else due until the last week of classes! So tonight when I get home from class I’m going to plop down on the sofa and watch my Maryland Terps play …

I don't get it
As we in Maryland get ready for homecoming we’re wondering if Maryland can beat N.C. State. I’m frustrated because we should be asking (as Adam is about his favorite team) if Maryland can go undefeated. Honestly, I’ve never been as frustrated after a win as I was last weekend when Maryland beat Wake Forest. By …

My First and Last visit to Yankee Stadium
Dad, Brandon, Shaun and I took a day trip up to New York this past Saturday to see the Orioles play the Yankees in the second to last game ever in Yankee Stadium. It was a pretty incredible day. It was my first game in Yankee Stadium, and it was amazing to be in the stadium where …

1st Place
I just wanted to point out that the Orioles are in first place in the AL East. I still don’t have a lot of hope for this season. But I’m enjoying watching the new, young birds. Still, if you had told me a week ago that after one week of play Luis Hernandez would hit …

Dear Baltimore Ravens,
Thank you so much for not blowing the game today. Seriously, it’s been a bad week for me in sports: The Orioles seem to have given up, the UM basketball team lost the commitment of their star recruit for ‘08, and the UM football blew a huge lead late in the game against the reigning ACC …
