Baltimore fans at-large are whiny, narcissistic cry-babies. They hate the Toronto Blue Jays for a decision that Clarence Gaston made 32 years ago in an exhibition game, not putting Mike Mussina into the 1993 All-Star game. They act like the song "We Are Family" emotionally traumatized them, because the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied around that song in the 1979 World Series en-route to defeating the Orioles 4 games to 3. And they can't accept the fact that they essentially forced Robert Irsay to immediately take the Colts out of the city in the middle of the night, because of the fact that literally they tried to usurp his team via eminent domain.

John Steadman, the dean of Baltimore sportswriters, used his column to urge fans to boycott games. He told fans that, if no one showed up on Sunday, Irsay would be forced to sell the team to a better owner.
