Here’s what some fans told us about their desire to see Baltimore franchises win titles (answers have been edited for clarity and grammar):

Unfair question … It’s like asking which of your children do you like best. — Bubba

Bubba’s comment made me laugh, because it’s true! I grew up loving sports because of my father, who always had the radio on for Orioles games. We watched Sunday football together, even if the Colts weren’t on. I was at the airport welcoming home our World Series team and attended the parade in 1983 — I love both the Orioles and Ravens and want both to win! With that being said, I am voting for the Ravens, mainly to get the Lamar Jackson haters to be quiet. I just don’t understand their vitriol towards him! We have a great team, and I’m hoping this is the year! — Laurie Fisher

Baltimore is blessed to have two such wonderful, playoff-destined teams. All we need now is the Baltimore Bombers, an expansion NBA basketball team! — Robin Ficker

Baltimore is, and always has been, a football town. For me, there’s no debate whatsoever. The Orioles are a cute, little team that unfortunately has been mismanaged for over 40 years. It’s all about the Baltimore Ravens. — Robert

It would be nice if they both did, but I gave the nod to the Orioles because the Ravens have won two titles since the Orioles’ last World Series win. The O’s have been very poorly run over most of that timeframe, though. — Burt

Orioles! That’s the only answer! The last one was 1983! — Greg Sprouse

If the O’s won a World Series, I would never need anything good to happen again. — Tony Giro

The Orioles. The Ravens already won twice in my lifetime. — Mikey

Either. I just want to go to a victory parade in Baltimore City! — Em Cahall

Ravens! I believe that this year is a must-win situation. General manager Eric DeCosta did an awesome job bringing in some veteran players to help us get where we want to be. I hope the O’s finish strong to hopefully get a wild-card spot. Injuries and pitching have been their biggest issue, and I don’t think they’ll make the playoffs. — David Cortina

The Orioles, and it’s not even close. — David Devaney

The Orioles. It’s been 42 years. I’m 38 and haven’t enjoyed a title or even World Series appearance from the Orioles. Even so, I’ll take another Ravens Super Bowl victory, too. Those moments have been incredible. — Andrew Virgilio
