It's a sport, business and sometimes even religion

You say you are a Padre and they say when did you become a priest?

You say you are a Twin and they say where is your brother or sister?

You say you are a Cardinal and they say work hard, next step is to be the pope.

But when you hear the word Dodgers, people know immediately it’s Major League Baseball.

What's your opinion on Andre Ethier?

Well Anon I actually like the kid. Although batting average wise he does have the tendency to do great one year, then do worse the next and then repeat. So since he hit .292 last year, which is an improvement from 2009 when he hit .273, I’m expecting something between .275-.290 this year. Of course that’s all really just bs as everyone knows anything can happen in baseball. He could have a career year this season, which would be nice for him since he’s close to 30. Its good to prove that your best years are not behind you. And his tendency to be Mr. Clutch is nothing but magical.

His defensive skills are for the most part average and he seems to have slowed down a bit through the years. There are rumors that the Dodgers are looking to trade Loney, so if they do it may not be a bad idea to move Andre to first especially since he doesnt have a strong arm. Overall I think he is a good player that has a couple of years left in the tank.

Thanks for the question!

A NY Yankees, NY Mets, and Red Sox fan are climbing a mountain, and arguing about who loves his team more. The Mets fan insists he is the most loyal. ”This is for the Mets”, he yells, and jumps off the mountain. Not to be outdone, the Yankees fan is next to profess his love for his team. He yells “This is for the Yankees!!!” and pushes the Red Sox fan off the mountain.

As the Yankee fan soaks in his moment a Dodger fan sneaks up behind him and yells “This is for everyone” and pushes the Yankee fan off the mountain.

I love it when a package contains baseball books…

So I may or may not have been bored one day and decided to go to barnesandnoble.com. Which may or may not have lead to the purchase of these books. And they may or may not fit in my bookshelf and for now may be huddled together in a box.

Although it can be safely assumed that I may have and that they do not.

Cliff being awesome, as requested

And a bonus, just because I’m nice: 



The first one is just plain lazy, but the second one is outstanding. To me there is nothing like a great defensive play. Its up there with the knuckleball and pinch hit home run.

Its How I Roll…

So just to let you know I have a separate Dodger blog from my baseball one. Figured it would look better. So if you’re interested you may follow my ass at mbdodgers.

3/19/11 Scorecard…

I would like to personally thank Brewers Almonte, Dickerson, Boggs, Nieves and Dodgers Gimenez and Miles for staying in the whole game and making my life easier.

Although I do have to admit I have had messier looking scorecards. Even ran out of room once. It was ridiculous.

:D

Dodgers vs Brewers Spring Training…
