Do you think it is disrespectful at MLB games where during the National Anthem for fans do yell O when it gets to the part "O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave"? Baltimore Orioles fans yell "O "at that part for the Orioles, but do you think it is disrespectful to do at at other MLB parks that have nothing do do with the Orioles. In my opinion and as a veteren, fans who do it at other parks are disrespectful. I have even seen fans do this at NHL games and I think it is highly disrespectful. If you do it Camden Yards that is fine because it is a tradition, but anywhere else it is disrespectful.

Why would the Red Sox DARE wear those butt ugly green uniforms when they played a while back against the Yankees? Those were ridiculous.

Which field do you find to be the best in baseball? I personally think PNC Park were the Pirates play is the nicest field but Fenway Park in Boston is the most fun place to watch a game I am going to Yankee stadium this year for the first time and am very excited to see their field.

I am in first place in my league, but recently to a bit of an odd trade.... I traded Johan Santana, Billy wagner, and Alex Rios!

for Brad Penny
Ryan Howard
Ken Griffey Jr.

My pitching is pretty deep so I figured I could make that gamble. (I just picked up clemens, and carmona of waiver wires) My OF is also very strong, but I have Giambi on first, and he seems to be breaking down.... Basically this trade is all about Ryan Howard. What do you guys think?

In pro basketball and football which is much more physical and players could easily have ill fillings about a hard hit.. it's all good as they say. Players are congradulating themselves and joking around with players from the other team.. that's good sportsmanship. Heck even in little league players congradulate the other team.. what the heck is going on in baseball?? I've been told it's done "behind the scenes" what ever that means.
