Baltimore sports fans, who have much to be cheerful about, may have caught part of short documentary on ESPN called “Team Spirit.” It’s directed by Oscar-winner  by Errol Morris. It's part of the ESPN campaign “It’s Not Crazy. It’s Sports," and it features Dundalk funeral director Chuck Kaczorowski, who talks about putting Ravens fans on a hearse--and the popularity of an Orioles casket that he offers.

Sheilah talks with Chuck Kaczorowski and with Dorchester County resident Linda Bosley.  Her dad Edward Powell—a lifelong Orioles fan—passed away last February—and they chose to bury him in the casket.
