10 things we love about baseball …

After over a week of play, I am so happy the game I love the most is back!  Here are just a few things that make the greatest game even better.
In no particular order …
1. Smooth double-plays … you have to love the way the ball is whipped around the diamond almost effortlessly.
2. Diving catches […]

O the Good Times

Cherish the good times…After all that has happened here during the last 10 seasons, we must must relish the good times. I would love for the O’s to split this current 6 game road trip. But, given the way they are playing, perhaps  I should aim higher.
One season has little to do with another… at least that’s […]

O’s Attendance

The  subject of this blog  is a very sensitive issue for me… the attendance at Oriole Park  on Wednesday. It  had  the lowest attendance in the history of the Yard.  I hate hearing it… I hate seeing it… It makes me feel sick. People (outsiders) think that because only 10,000 people showed up on Wednesday night that […]

Zinno’s Final Four predictions

Memphis-UCLA
It’s pretty simple here … UCLA wants to slow things down.  They can’t run the way Memphis can.  The first 5-8 minutes of the game will be crucial for John Calipari’s squad.  If they are missing shots in transition and can’t get to the free throw line early, the advantage goes to UCLA.  What happens […]

Thank you AirTran …

For the two or three of you that are NOT my boss and read this blog religiously, you may remember my bitching about AirTran’s billboard on the north-bound side of I-83 … you know the one with Steve McNair claiming that number 9 was “ready for take-off” … well, you will be happy to know […]
