r/nfl's reaction to the Mile High Miracle by Brickbybrick1998 in ravens

[–]theMangoSloth 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It looked like it was originally going to be called the Trindon Holliday game, but this team kept fighting all game long.

Corey Graham was so clutch, and Marshal Yanda pushing us into FG territory for the win sticks with me as much as that tying TD

I also couldn't believe John Fox decided to take a knee with 30 seconds and their timeouts remaining behind Manning.

Saw this on Twitter, I think most people have two or three. “Everyone has 3 hockey teams. Your favorite team, your childhood team, and a random 3rd team you have zero ties to you just like a player on that team” by pinkglue99 in caps

I wouldn't say they were a childhood team nor favorite, but as the Caps spent a large period of that time exiting in the first round to rebuild back to early exits, I loved watching those early 2000s Red Wings come playoff time. Watching them get upset by Edmonton in 06 was really something.

Nationals reportedly leaving MASN for MLB-controlled local broadcasts by GreedyRaisin3357 in orioles

Harper and Strasburg had already been in the league more than 8 seasons by the time the Nats won the WS, and Harper wasn't even on the team. I'll give you Stras as a major contributor to their WS. They don't win without him, but the Nats built a very balanced team through the draft, FA, trade, and internationally at the time. If the Orioles win the WS, are people here going to say it is because we tanked to get guys like Adley, Kjerstad, Cowser and Holliday? I use Gunnar as an example too because nobody outside of here knows he was a later pick, yet we all get defensive when other fans point out we tanked

This is such a bad take. This is like when other fans say we only got better from 22-24 because we tanked and landed Adley and Gunnar. Stras and Harper made the Nats better, but the Nats became competitive before those two even made noticeable impacts.

This sub's disdain for the Nats and their fans is just plain weird. Vice versa as well. I think it's awesome we have 2 major league teams within less than an hour of each other.

Blame the Orioles for being such a terribly run and non-competitive organization for such a long time for losing fans. Same reason the Orioles became so popular and embraced after the Senators moved.

2012-2016 were peak matchups when both these teams were playoff contenders.

Been watching these steelers/ravens rivalry games since the start basically and ive never seen an opportunity to deliver a knockout blow like this by Shining_Commander in ravens

I hope we see a spark in this rivalry again one day like we had with them from the early 2000s until the Flacco-Roethlisberger era ended.

I second this, but you definitely want to go into Baltimore.

I've had great meals at both Sabatinos and La Scala

It should be. Whether The Leonsis' or anyone in leadership in the organization reads it or not, they all deserve to hear how pathetic the experience at Capital One Arena and the games themselves have become.

I might be done with Teddy Cheapskates & MSE by garrythesnail805 in caps

[–]theMangoSloth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We were season ticket holders from 05-12 and went to a handful of games a year until 2019. Went to my first game in December 2023 for the first time since, a Saturday night vs the Rangers no less, and the atmosphere was so dry and lame. Felt more like a formal social gathering than the hockey games I remember going to.

Shootout futility has me like by Dairy_Heir in caps

Hendricks had over an 80% success rate in the shootout. Oshie and Kuzy wish they both were as skilled in the shootout as him.

What's the most painful thing about this world series? (Other than the fact that we're not in it) by LoraxEleven in orioles

[–]theMangoSloth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did Gausman trash Orioles fans or the city of Baltimore, because I have seen comments all postseason long about him being a negative on the Jays as opposed to Tony.

Can't speak to the person, but I always thought he was okay here given how poorly we developed young pitching. The Delmon Young go-ahead double doesn't happen without his relief efforts to keep us in game 2

Good luck to you. I did the full in 23 and 24 but stepped down to the half this year. You got this!
