It is a great day to be a Terp!!!! Former Terrapin golf coach, Fred Funk easily won his 2nd major –the Senior US Open after a disappointing playoff loss last week in the Senior British Open. Fred’s incredible putting keyed the easy victory.
Yes, the Orioles lost today (Sunday 8-2-09) 18-10. Just couldn’t get that last touchdown and the “A.F.L.” 2 pt. conversion to put the game in o.t. Sad isn’t it?

Well thats 2 games in a row the loss of George Sherrill was no factor. The Birds had 10 baserunners but no runs as untimely hitting was their achilles again. Red Sox nation was in full force as Camden Yards was SOLD OUT.
