With the regular season over, teams are facing an offseason filled with golf rounds and hot-stove strategy.
But we're not going to let them get off that easy. No sir. No way. In an attempt to bring some closure between franchise and follower, we're giving a blogger from each team the opportunity to give a�concession speech for this year's squad. Up next is our friend Stacey Long from Camden Chat . She wrote the 10 best things about being an Orioles fan for us earlier this season.
Fellow citizens of Birdland and all those who supported the 2012 Orioles, I welcome you to a new age. An age where the O's are again the toast of the town and where hope blooms in the hearts of a once cynical fan base. It's true that our season came to an end before we were ready, and to that I say this: Be disappointed in the ending, yes, but do not be disappointed in your team. It kept pace in the American League East for 162 games, defeated the defending American League champion Texas Rangers in the wild-card game, and came within one game of conquering the Yankees in the ALDS, a team sporting a $200 million payroll and multiple future Hall of Famers. This 2012 Orioles team was nothing short of miraculous. From the Nate McLouth renaissance to Yankee killer Miguel Gonzalez, who made his major-league debut at age 28, this was a once in a lifetime team.Mario Batali
