Episode 96: Happy Days Are Here Again

Leading Off

Did something important happen this week? Oh yeah, the Baltimore Orioles won their first AL East championship in seventeen years. You know… seventeen, like the age she was (you know what I mean). The number that Stevie Nicks was on the edge of. The number of the magazine that teaches young girls how to dress like… nevermind. Seventeen is a lot.

While the guys try to recover from their excitement, they make their way through the Drink of the WeekMedical Wing, and the TWotT:

 

Happy Days Are Here Again

There is nothing better than talking about the AL East Champion Baltimore Orioles. Do yourself a favor: go back and read that sentence again. The Orioles are going to the playoffs, and there’s no saying they didn’t earn it. The guys talk through their favorite moments of that evening, and recount Jake’s particularly good vantage point on that evening. If you saw the BEV Twitter account, you know what we’re talking about. If not, why aren’t you following @birdseyeviewbal? Hopefully watching the Orioles clinch will be something we can watch and re-watch on Orioles Classics on MASN for a long, long time.

 

Royals and Tigers and A’s, O My!

That being the case, how do the Orioles stack up against them? You’ll get all the optimism and pessimism you could hope for, as the guys argue about whether O’s fans should be worried or confident.

 

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Blowing the Save

Most podcasts try to end on a high note – the perfect coda to a quality program. That’s just not our style. Each week, we’ll end on a weak note, blowing the save with an item that didn’t quite fit into the episode, or something they simply need to get off their chests. It’s our version of taking the ball and pulling a Kevin Gregg.

  1. […] I really have to sell this as being an amazing memory from 2014? As we discussed on Episode 96, I had a pretty decent vantage point for that evening. But Orioles fans didn’t need anything […]
