Gutless MLB Commissioner <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Bud Selig<\/span> agreed to a corrupt bargain with Angelos just before the 2005 season to avoid a lawsuit. Angelos of course voted against baseball&#8217;s return to D.C. because he is a coward who mistakenly believes Washington and Baltimore are the same market. Angelos then kept the Nats off of most area cable systems until September 2006, costing the Nats two years of exposure to the greater D.C. area. It stifled the fanbase and hurt the District of Columbia&#8217;s investment in Nationals Park. Once the Nats were available, Angelos continued his bad faith by making network Baltimore-centric and treating the Nats as the secondary team. The network is prone to technical incompetence. Keep all of this in mind if you are tempted to buy tickets to Angelos&#8217; Orioles &#8212; you don&#8217;t want to reward bad behavior do you?<\/p>\n<p>The news was apparently supposed to be embargoed until today, but <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Rob Dibble<\/span> showed his is as good as keeping secrets as he is broadcasting by <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/Rdibs49\/status\/6348196654\">tweeting<\/a> about it it on Friday afternoon.
