When Angelos made that invitation, was pretty surprised that Dan didn’t just thank him, accept the invite, and sit down. How hard is it to accept a gift when it’s given? That was a huge get that I doubt Angelos intended to put out there or believe he’d have to follow through on.
Wait—Jon, don’t you have a background in finance, or writing for finance/business? You’d be perfect for that invitation!
Angelos really came off like a spoiled rich kid in that presser. Not a good look.
To berate Connolly for having the nerve to ask a tough question—while hiding behind MLK Day, a holiday he himself was cynically using to highlight his philanthropic credentials—just showed everyone how entitled, clueless, and out of touch these spoiled kids of billionaires really are.
And then, in a fit or irony, he suggested that Dan doesn’t understand “real world people.” Really John? Please, do come down from your throne and inform us about real world people.
This is EXACTLY the kind of behavior I expect from the children of massive wealth. This is what I told people would happen once the sons got their mitts on daddy’s plaything.
The only way this situation gets better for the franchise is an outright sale, something this fan has been praying for since about 1999.
The next few weeks will be very telling—let’s see what additional drama is revealed as the deadline for the lease extension approaches. Hopefully, it’s a non-issue. But sadly, almost nothing surrounding the Orioles lately has been a non-issue.
