Leadership

Are you as disgusted by the Orioles woeful leadership as we are?

Baltimore Positive

The franchise with the “under new ownership” sign on its last-place standing in the AL East, an evaporating fan base and a cowardly baseball operation that is now fielding minor league tryouts at Camden Yards with the remnants of a bunch of No. 1 draft picks, decided to raise ticket prices while continuing to lower the bar for tone deafness. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss their mutual disgust with every aspect of the Baltimore Orioles, on and off the field – from David Rubenstein and Catie Griggs down to Mike Elias and the sloppy play on the diamond. Stink. Stank. Stunk…

It’s always a pleasure to welcome Buchdahl home for a discussion about winning, losing and spending the money it takes to host parades and keep fans (and their wallets) engaged.

The taxes don’t lie…

He wrote the book on Ghislaine Maxwell and criminal mind that created The Epstein Files

Baltimore Positive
