Post-Game 74 Thread: Fox Forced to Swallow Dodgers Victory

DODGERS 9, YANKEES 4

On a day where Ghana depressingly dispatched Team USA again, 2-1, for the second straight World Cup, the Dodgers redeemed the evening by overcoming an early lead (similar to what the Americans faced in the World Cup all tournament long), driving the evil Yankees back to Hades (or the Bronx) and allowing Americans to fully rejoice in victory. Rafael Furcal went 3-for-5, James Loney went 2-for-4 with 4 RBI, and four relievers combined to keep the Yankees scoreless (giving up only one hit over 3.2 IP). Americans nationwide, thanks to the Fox Saturday Game of the Week, were able to witness this glorious spectacle and unleash all the patriotic splendor they had bottled from this afternoon.

Except for those few Yankee fans, I suppose. It was probably a bad day for them.

Dodgers win. I kill the killer boot. Where is the after party?

Paul said...

Yeah. Mr. F.! You bring it home.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Mariners acquire Russell Branyan. They just refuse to admit defeat.

Josh S. said...

I have a tentatively good feeling about tomorrow. The pitching has stepped up in this series. Even Breezy got an out.

rbnlaw said...

Beating the Yanks makes losing so many to the Angels seem insignificant.

Have I said, "FUCK THE YANKEES" yet?

rbnlaw said...

and oh yeah, Pod Rays; we're coming for you, you bunch of ugly uniform wearing, low-budget, small-market playing bunch of first place wannabes.

Don't get comfortable Gnats, you're next on the list, fuckers.

rbnlaw said...

Isn't this a FHYPGT?

Paul said...

My legal representation brings it like no other.

Rbn shows them.

Kyle Baker said...

Well god damn here's where you guys are.

MR.F said...

Join the party.

Greg Zakwin said...

Great to see all 8 position players reach base at least twice.

And Broxton and Kuo dominate as usual.

rbnlaw said...

@Me earlier:
I meant HFYPGT.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Guess what everyone!

Plaschke's back to bashing the Dodgers!

KK,
We still need to figure out Sherrill. Kuo and Brox are dealing fo sho.

@MLASF

Plaschke can bite my shiny metal ass.

rbnlaw said...

OK, I read the Plaschit. He does have some points.
If we want to keep Torre for another year, or two, the Dodgers need to bring in a big arm and a bat. Trading Manny (like that's possible) is not a bad idea.

In all, typical Plaschke pablum; but points to consider.

Kyle Baker said...

Other points to consider:

Tres tacos al carbon
El Cholo's LA Lemonade
Dos XX amber

Padron Anniversario 1926

MR.F said...

Of course he's back to bashing the Dodgers. The Lakers' season is over.

rbnlaw said...

DB,
Ah, hell yes! The XX is the shit with the tacos.

Nice drinks Dusty

Steve Sax said...

Hey Josh: the Bronx is burning.

Kyle Baker said...

Barmy Army
Shout it out
Come on England!


[Dusty is too nervous to sleep]

Orel said...

"Fuck the Yankees. Fuck Fox. Fuck them all."

MR. F indeed!

Kyle Baker said...

I think I just broke a rib screaming at my TV.

FUCK YOU SEPP BLATTER.

rbnlaw said...

England still a mess.

rbnlaw said...

Scheisse!

Kyle Baker said...

MEXICO, MEXICO, MEXICO!!!

Greg Zakwin said...

You know, it's funny, I don't seem to remember this Argyled little shit writing anything after a positive pitching performance.

Hmmm, makes you wonder, doesn't it?

Paul said...

Morning all!

I am cleaning the house I ignored 12 hours ago because of more important international events. I might take a gander at this Mexico game for my abuleo with my Italian jersey on wishing the Americans were still playing and still pissed the Irish were not invited.

Fox is as bad as Steiner and Monday talking about Jeter for about 5 minutes when he wasn't even hitting. They are tough to understand with Jeters dick in their mouths.
