Orioles and Lassie

Some amusing reading to start this morning:

• The Post defends its ongoing coverage of the Orioles despite a new hometown team–the objections are so vehement that the paper is setting up a special discussion board for the subject. Sports Editor Emilio Garcia-Ruiz writes “It is not our place to choose sides in this rivalry. Our job is to serve our readers — all our readers — the best we can by providing the most extensive coverage possible.”
