Given that the team was slated to be a farm team for the Nats (and, from what we heard, the Nationals ownership was enthusiastically behind the move) and the Orioles front office had expressed many doubts about the move, it’s not hard to figure out what happened.

Pretty cheeky of him all right...last time I looked, Waldorf is closer to DC than it is to Baltimore.

No, I mean as far as MLB is concerned. He would get to veto that. Maybe I'm wrong.

Man, that sucks.     Is there an "official" map of a team's proprietary rights?   Or, does Angelos simply threaten to sue?

You' think it would be published, but I looked up "Baltimore Gloryholes Territory" and Google didn't give me any results that had to do with baseball... :shrug:

Angelos is in Washington's territory. Move the Baltimore Orioles back to St Louis.

Gotta keep up the drum beat of boycottiness.    Whenever there's a comment about Baltimore, I'll be there.

In a way, all of us has a Peter Angelos to face. For some, shyness might be their Peter Angelos. For others, a lack of education might be their Peter Angelos. For us, Peter Angelos is a big, dangerous man who wants to kill us. But as sure as my name is NJ Ave, the people of Washington DC can conquer their own personal Peter Angelos, who also happens to be the actual Peter Angelos!
