O-R-I-O-L-E-S!!!!!!!!

I don't have to tell you that tonite the Orioles open their 2014 Playoff bid against the Tigers. I thought I'd put myself in the mood, and maybe drum up some good karma by posting a crapload of postcards of my favorite Orioles from the 'Glory Days' gone by.



















And my favorite postcard:


Go Birds, Give 'Em Hell!!!

  1. Those are some mighty fine postcards! I like the font used on the Bobby Grich card, they should've stayed with it.

    Things I particularly appreciate: Dave McNally's vest jersey, Moe Drabowsky's hat which looks two sizes too small, Eddie Watt's "I need to lose 15 pounds before the season starts" undershirt, and the high percentage of genuine "It's great to be an Oriole!" smiles.

    1. Good call. I have to dig out my Johnny Pros. I saw them not long ago but I think I 're-filed' them. LOL

  3. Postcards rule! Thanks for sharing. And best of luck to your birds. It was awesome seeing them beat down those Tigers.

    1. I couldn't watch as I was at the University of Houston football game. Probably just as well. I am not good at watching my teams on TV. I tend to lose my grip (or so my wife tells me).
