wayward o says: this is a nice place to take break near place of employ. however wayward o tends to go with knit hats from late november until mid-march, aka the hot stOve season. ps. sorry about poor photo quality.

first of all, wayward O feels pretty bad about previous post in some ways because wayward O loves baltimore sun but sometimes insinuations that creep into reporting get him riled up. and it's not peter schmuck's fault that he is wholly owned subsidiary of sam zell. we all know team stinks ... however. is what wayward O is saying basically. no need to constantly remind us.

but wayward O did not come here today to make baltimore sun blingee ... though he still may. he came here to tell you a secret.

THE KANSAS CITY ROYALS MIGHT BE GOOD!


56 wins in 2005; 62 wins in 2006; 69 wins in 2007; and 75 wins in 2008. And all along the way they've made a few shrewd, mid-market type moves and developed some talent.

occasional pissing and moaning about ramon ramirez aside -- and we as Os fans know how precious good middle relief can be -- with additions of mike jacobs and coco crisp royale seems to have talent at every position, four decents starters -- all still on the upside -- and a talented closer.

The Royals. The Kansas City Royals.

Wayward O is going to tell you something right now. If Royale gets into the playoff mix in 09 -- sometimes known -- as the play9ff mix -- and team is flailing around as is its September custom, wayward O is changing name to Wayward Ro and buying Royals cap.

Maybe not moving to Kansas, but rest of trappings will be there! Including KC's theme song.

i grOw tired

wayward O grows tired of baltimore sun cookie cutter paper that says same go@@amn thing every damn day about team.

blah blah blah

they, theoretically, have money to spend but are not an intriguing landing spot

and now you're standing at the station
trying to take what i ain't go to give
oh and i'm so sorry, charlie
i gOt my own life to live ....

it is time for sun paper to stop shitting on team. it's not like it's a talented insightful bunch over there anyway. it's a low down dirty sam zell paper just trying to pretend it's got a sack a balls.

team is frOm where???

hahaha. no WONDER wayward O could never watch team on tv here in brooklyn!! team is from BALTIMORE MARYLAND because it says so on uniforms!

but when team is in BALTIMORE jerseys will NOT SAY BALTIMORE because you already KNOW you are in BALTIMORE!!

very, very clever.

also oriole bird got overhaul!



via Sun
there are several KEY DIFFERENCES between OLD BIRD and NEW BIRD:

• new bird has CLOSED STANCE and is UP ON TOES. this means new bird will hit for higher average and also make fewer errors in field
• new bird just generally appears tougher and doesn't have grey feathers on chest
• new bird doesn't have giant forehead

that is all.

wayward O took a few spins around the blogz, etc., today an noticed many fans of team said things like "now if they could just get some pitching." well wayward O says team will actually improve for simple fact that now we know where team is from!

hard to explain, but true. so true.

also, sorry for lack of posts recently because wayward O is busy he totally ignored NL CY winner and some other stuff that, like, happened. or something. also it is nice to take break from baseball sometimes!!!
