Stiff of the Week

I'm gonna make this short and sweet, my stiff of the week this week (other than Inky for pointing out my spelling flaws) is the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. They haven't been to Baltimore since the embarrassing 1979 World Series and they can't even participate in a turn back the clock game? The O's have been advertising this for weeks that they'd be wearing the 1979 throw backs so one would only expect to see Pittsburgh out there in those god awful gold uniforms with the funky black hat. But no, they played in their normal every day road jersey. Is this team to cheap to go out and get throw backs? I'm sure the fans of the Pirates (both of them) would've wanted to see the old jerseys and hats again. Oh well, at least the O's won that game, I think they're wearing the 83 throw backs in a couple of weeks, we can only hope the team they play will participate. Otherwise they will face the wrath of XL and the bold distinction of Stiff of the Week!
