<a href='http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1890915' target='_blank'>Maybe now mr asbestos will try and put a better product on the field seeing how he will have a bit of competition. I still dont think he pulls that many fans from NVA.</a>

No, the big issue for Angelos has been losing fans from Montgomery and PG counties.
He'd be far happier if the new team was in No VA, that would have virtually no effect on his attendance.
TV however, that's a different story. He could lose money there, which is why he probably was negotiating a deal for a cable channel for both teams...he wants to keep a slice of the pie.

MLB has guaranteed a certain $ for him. What a freakin joke. I hate that sob, and I am an O's fan.

Great move by MLB. It just should have happened much sooner.

why are you hatin' on angelos (i can understand Terpy). i'm with him on this. he's spent millions of dollars on this team, and he owns the territorial rights that come with it. Now MLB is just breaching that. Angelos definitely has a case. i just hope that MLB gives him a fat payoff. but i have a feeling they'll rip him off.
