Hey, man, I really respect your loyalty in hanging with that perpetually XXXXXX team. ;^)
Thanks. Had to 'bleep' ya! LOL!
The Dodgers do EVERYTHING well this year. They move runners, they take extra bases, they find two out hits from their no. 8 hitter to plate men from 2nd and 3rd.
Their catcher hits SECOND! Lots of good pitching from the Land of the Rising Sun.
And they've finally found a manager who can manage.
...Steve Garvey making kids out of wedlock like ringing a bell. Vin Scully's new, NATURAL hair style.
LOL Yeah, but I think Garvey's settled down....maybe not.
Vinny could do with a ;lift'.
Good times friend.
The best!
What a GREAT thread this is!
Can't help but join in on the Dodgers comments.
I spent my teenage summers at the Spokane Indians ballpark watching the Dodgers AAA farm team in the PCL.
I had the opportunity to watch a lot of the "kids" develope into Major League players. Maury Wills, Tommy Davis, Willie Davis, Frank Howard the Sherry brothers just to name a few. Wills lived across the street from my grandmother when he first came to town.
Every year, the Dodgers came to town for an exhibition game, and the AAA team beat 'em everytime. Those exhibition games allowed me to see the "biggies" - Duke Snider was my hero. I once saw Frank Howard hit a home run over the center field fence (411 ft.) and that ball was still climbing on the way over the fence.
Now living deep in Giants and A's country, I'm still a die-hard Dodgers fan - And, they're still in First Place.
