'Stan The Fan' has been a respected voice on the Baltimore sports skyline as long as I can remember. I'm just a few years young than Stan Charles so I certainly remember him covering the Orioles and Colts even before Charm City turned purple in 1996 with the Ravens.
These days, he is one of the faces of both, Press Box, a Baltimore sports publication AND the even more instaneously updated and interactive PressBoxOnline.com, where you'll find sports blogs and vlogs (video sports content) featuring commentary from fans and pros alike.
Today, Stan shares comment with me on his recent PressBoxOnline.com column "What went wrong in Birdland this Summer?" and reaction from Oriole's alum and 20 game winner Ross Grimsley on the lack of offense from the O's bats since early July. Finding themselves at a possible breaking point in a chase for a Wild Card spot chasing the Yankees in the American League East, what's next for the Orioles?
Stan The Fan tries to keep me from throwing in the towel on this season on this edition of The Michael J Podcast.
I look forward to Stan becoming a regular fixture both on my 93.1 WPOC Afternoon show around 5:25 pm AND here on the Michael J Podcast! Michael J
