Baltimore Sports Then and Now

Throughout the city of Baltimore, you can see the passion on all the fans of the Baltimore Orioles, Baltimore Ravens, and all the other sports in Baltimore. Every step you make through the city when the Ravens are playing you hear screaming and yelling. It’s been a long time since you could hear the Baltimore sports fans yell about the Orioles, but soon you will. This is very good town when it comes to the passion of the sports fans.

Let’s start with the passion of the fans of the Baltimore Orioles. First of all the Orioles have not had a winning season in a really long time. If you are an Orioles fan you have to be a diehard fan, because of the losing in the past years. When the Orioles were playing winning baseball in the “Orioles Magic” era, all you could hear is about when the Orioles were playing and how they are doing. Even though there is not much to cheer about for the Orioles, in the coming years the Orioles should get back to their winning ways and bring back that passion of baseball to the city of  Baltimore.

Now for the Baltimore Ravens. Through the years since 1996 there has been a lot of passion for football in the Charm City. Each and every Sunday you know that the Ravens are playing, cause you can hear people yelling and screaming about the Ravens game, you can see all the Ravens jerseys and shirts on all the fans of the Ravens. The fans get so passionate that they take it hard when the Ravens lose, they treat the Ravens like they are part of their family. When you think about a home field advantage, you think of M & T Bank Stadium that is always sold out for every Ravens home game.

Through out the city of Baltimore there is a lot of passion on the faces of the fans.
