Orioles VP John Angelos Says He Doesnt Want Trump Throwing First Pitch

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Executive Vice President of the Orioles John Angelos said on the B-more Opinionated Podcast this week that President Donald Trump would need to apologize for some of the statements he’s made before he’d be OK with him throwing out the first pitch at a game.

While many are celebrating the president, there are still many critics including Orioles Executive Vice President John Angelos, who expressed disappointment in the commander in chief.

This all started when Angelos was asked whether there were plans to have Mr. Trump throw out a first pitch at Camden Yards.

For the last 100 years, presidents have been invited to throw out first pitches on major league baseball Opening Days. Angelos says before that happens, there needs to be an apology first. He voiced his disappointment in the president’s conduct and the way he’s spoken about immigrants and women.

'Heartless con man' J.G. Spooner sentenced to prison for GoFundMe, rent, bad check scams



CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A prosecutor called former Cleveland radio host J.G. Spooner a "heartless con-man" minutes before a judge sentenced him to 30 months in prison in a series of scams that took advantage of complete strangers and the family of a dying friend.

Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Brian J. Corrigan handed down the sentence after Spooner pleaded guilty to theft charges stemming from a months-long rent scam that he carried out while already under indictment for money laundering charges connected to a dying friend's GoFundMe account.

Corrigan also ordered Spooner to pay more than $16,000 in restitution to eight victims of his scams.

"Everyone knew J.G. Spooner as a radio personality," assistant Cuyahoga County prosecutor Edward Brydle told Corrigan. "But I don't think anybody knew he was a heartless con-man."

I hope GoFundMe sends out refunds to everyone on DU who donated to Corey Baker's scam.

Here's a screenshot of a comment that was just posted on Corey's GoFundMe page:

Wonder what happened? LOL


Before "Corey" deleted his thread I decided to Google part of his letter to see if it could be found on any other site-- And I found a site that mocked DU for falling for it 'again'.

Do any of y'all know the site conservativeunderground? SarasotaRepub had better look out for Karma-- She's over your tiny dick shoulder, bub!






GoFundMe says that Corey's Facebook page IS NOT verified:
