Yep. I got to like the O's in the late 70s and early 80s, went to many games, rooted for them, loved listening to Chuck Thompson and John Miller, two of the best to ever do a game. But I was a D.C. kid, that was my city, and Baltimore was not. I'm sure a lot of suburban Maryland kids, especially the younger ones, made the transition almost seamlessly, but I had too much water under the bridge with my Nats at that point.
