the thing is, people from baltimore would be the FIRST to throw our local government under the bus if we thought this could be averted. we’re out here defending cause we know just how freak and catastrophic this is.

Whew. The response to this tweet has been amazing, incredible and even a little overwhelming. Shane and I so much appreciate the support from Birdland, my heart is so god damn full. The @Orioles have reached out, as well as BL and I'm excited to keep you all posted.

Something is happening with the youth of today, as seen all over the internet, something that has made them callous and rude and I don't know what the answer is. What I do know is people with disabilities are PEOPLE and not a cartoon TV show for you to laugh at.

that this is an example of thuggery that is obviously sent in from the privileged surrounding counties, makes the experience at the yard poor for others, and easily just gets sent back home, with the 'big bad city' taking the blame. That being said, Go O's and teach your kids.

and I will work on that, but what grabs me about the situation is how poor these kids parenting must be. They were clad in Boy's Latin gear, so I know there is a level of privilege here and maybe a lack of exposure to those with disabilities.

to get it out here anyway. My little brother is the biggest Oriole fan there is. For over 20 years, every year, he's CERTAIN they win the AL East. He keeps track in his head of how many hits they have until the numbers get too high. I've never seen a more dedicated fan.
