I bring you joy Orioles fans here at BMoreBirdsNest! Not only have the Orioles DOUBLED their win total to a whopping four (4) games since my last post…but someone pitched a no hitter tonight… and it actually wasn’t against the Orioles!

(Technically it wasn’t someone on the Orioles either) Triple-A prospect, Chris Tillman put some goose [...]

The Ravens enter their final warm-up for “real” football tonight, taking on the Atlanta Falcons down at the Georgia Dome.  We should all remember the last time the Ravens played a preseason game there, when Adalius Thomas snapped Mike Vick’s ankle long before anybody knew he was a dogfighting King Pin.  That injury pretty much [...]

I had hoped that after Joe Flacco’s 23/28 247 yard performance in just over two quarters on Saturday night, the jibber jabber on Baltimore’s airwaves about the Ravens “needing” a dynamic wide receiver would quiet down at least a bit.  Well, we’re now in just the second day of sports talk radio since the game, [...]

During an off day, we figured it’d be fun to let you have a peek into the sporting lives of your favorite bloggers.

SI last week released their list of the best cities for what they describe as “Fan Value Experience.” Baltimore came in at #5, which is obviously something to be proud of; [...]

The Good
The Ravens currently sit at 4-3, tied with the Cleveland Browns (!?!) for second place in the AFC North, just a game behind the Squealers. Historically, the Ravens are a much better team in the [...]

Birds Nest Prologue: Professional athletes should never really need “Gut Checks,” or “Wake-up Calls.” They are men being paid to play a boy’s game, in front of adoring fans who give up their hard earned money to watch them, their tax dollars to finance the teams’ stadium, and who live and die with each game. [...]
