Sharing the Love: Cal Ripken Honored...
2007-07-25 15:04:00 Last night, I got to Camden Yards at 4:10pm, after a long day at the office.From the moment I got there, I knew tonight was going to be unlike any other in recent memory. The were people waiting outside the gates, and the lines were long - very long. There was a buzz in the air that has not been felt in a long time at Camden Yards.Well, Oriole hero and soon to be baseball Hall of Famer, Cal Ripken was honored in a "send-off" last night. Although yesterday evening was 'bobblehead night' (the second in a series of three), the main course was a dose of Cal.A crowd about 43,000 strong celebrated a man who was not only a great baseball player, but also a part of Maryland heritage.The crowd last night was boisterous, decked in black and orange, and you saw the number "8" abound on jerseys, shirts and whatever else you could find.In light of the Orioles being a second division team at the moment, Tuesday was an example of what could be -- or in better terms, what should be.For one night,...

Get Your Cal Ripken Vanity Plates
2007-07-21 21:01:00 Those looking for an alternative to the standard Maryland license plates no longer have to support the Chesapeake Bay. In honor of Cal Ripken Jr’s impending Hall of Fame induction the state has approved a special Ripken license plate. While the pricey plates cost $54.95 for a set of two, the money does go to a good cause. All the proceeds will go to the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation, a nonprofit that promotes youth baseball and softball for underprivileged kids. Stan Charles, the man behind the creation of the plates, also hopes they will have another benefit. “Maybe the cars with the Ripken plates will last longer,” Charles said. “The Iron Man never broke down, so maybe the cars won’t break down, either.” Regardless of whether or not the plates have any special powers, they’re the perfect way for Ripken fans to honor his career. They’re also a big improvement for anybody who made the ill-advised decision to buy license plates salutin...

Did Cal Ripken Read Game Of Shadows?
2007-05-11 18:33:00 I am not one to get up on a pedestal and preach about steroids. If you offered me fame and riches beyond belief, I might try give 'roids the old college try, consequences be damned. I understand why Barry Bonds did what he did, and don't hate him for it. Nonetheless, you have your head in the sand if you act like 1)there's any doubt Bonds took steroids and/or 2)his home run record will be on equal footing with Hank Aaron's. I know it's really hard to hit a baseball no matter how jacked up you are. I know that Babe Ruth faced watered down pitching with no minorities. But Barry Bonds injected himself with many, many PEDs for years. If any advantage deserves an asterisk, it's blatant cheating. Check out this quote from Cal Ripken on Bonds: "I'd like to think that until there is evidence or proof that he's done something wrong, you would give him the benefit of the doubt." Seriously? Sit down, read Game Of Shadows Cal.&nb...
