Game 162 Thread: October 3 vs. D'backs, 1p

Ted Lilly (9-12, 3.71) vs. Rodrigo Lopez (7-15, 5.03).

COMMENTS: Like a teetering opponent on Mortal Kombat waiting to be finished, the Dodgers enter today's final game of the season eagerly anticipating their dispatch for the winter break. And while the hearty Dodger fan might be heading out to the Stadium for Fan Appreciation Day, hoping to bag one of "15,000 giveaways and special prizes" (you know, like like a Dr. Phil Prize Basket or 4 tickets to the special "Petros and Money Show" at Medieval Times), most baseball fans will want to be close to a television or reliable wireless connection to keep tabs on the Padres @ Giants game (Mat Latos vs. Jonathan Sanchez), which could decide the NL playoff teams (the other important game, Phillies @ Braves (Cole Hamels vs. Tim Hudson), should be starting right about now, funk soul brother).

So enjoy Fan Appreciation Day if you're going to the Stadium, and enjoy Scoreboard Watching if you're not. Either way, the Dodgers' 2010 season comes to a full and complete stop today. And then, feel free to exit the freefall ride.

The Pods are making my tummy sick

I HATE YOU PODRAYS

NicJ said...

@MR C, 13 points from JONATHAN STEWART.

spank said...

I can't listen to monday.


*throws radio out the window

karina said...

I dig when p[pitchers work walks

NicJ said...

the pods better not use the whole "we should be proud that we made it this far" routine.

No you shouldnt you just completed a collapse of epic proportions.

spank said...

I'm going to miss Karina's Gameday in play type comments

spank said...

4 more innings Peeps

karina said...

@Spank sorry if those comments annoy you :(

Well, if the Sons set up some scoreboard watching threads you might have more of my Gameday comments :(

spank said...

Actually Karina I like it. I didn't mean it like a diss.

Nostradamus said...

Nic, it was either him or SJax, who came up with twelve, despite being busted up. Good match ups for my RBs all around.

karina said...

We are good, Spank :)

NicJ said...

just my luck the weekend that i have the best matchups of the year is the same weekend more than half my roster is hurt.

spank said...

I have 9 points from my receivers.I can't get my WR's and RB's to have good games at the same time.

karina said...

I miss Adrian Peterson

karina said...

Pods, can you at least tie the score?

Nostradamus said...

Msb extends the inning.

spank said...

3 more innings.


(cries)

MeanieBreanie said...

Ausmus GIDP :(

spank said...

Where is Indy's passing attack?

spank said...

Lilly!

MeanieBreanie said...

Dodger's need some insurance runs.

Steve Sax said...

Still 2-0 Giants. That's not good.

Josh S. said...

STOOPID TEJADA

spank said...

Spikes back on the jugular and is about to break skin.


Rick James-Give it to Me Baby

MR.F said...

What happened with Lindsey? I muted mlb.tv for GBA and when I looked again, he was walking into the dugout.

karina said...

I just remembered I actually have a pic of Coper wearing shoes, this one is in my parents' beach house and the person sleeping on the hammock is my younger brother aka Coper's "dad"

MeanieBreanie said...

@Spank
Journey - Any way you want it

Josh S. said...

@Mr F: He was announced as a pinch hitter and then pulled for Oltjen so he could be in the box score.

Josh S. said...

Isn't that how is career in the majors began?

Josh S. said...

^his

karen said...

Karina--Coper looks very handsome in his shoes!

MeanieBreanie said...

@Karina
Coper is adorable! His shoes look like little boxing gloves.

spank said...

Shoes? Oh I gotta see this.

karina said...

I never thought I was going to say this: I'd wish I could watch the Giants-Pods game

karen said...

@Karina--It's probably best that you can't watch the Giants-Pods game. It's too upsetting to see those evil fans so happy

spank said...

They look cozy. The shoes that is. Did I just say that?

spank said...

Coper. Heh

Fred's Brim said...

cmon Dre!

MR.F said...

Ethier!!

Theriot out.

spank said...

RANCHO LAST DAY OF THE SEASONIENDO

NicJ said...

only got one run out of that?

Fred's Brim said...

Theriot with the Tootblan!

spank said...

WTF happened?

Cliff Beefpile said...

damn, thought that was gonna leave the yard! that woulda been a nice way to end the season. theriot, you suck!

@karina, love coper's shoes.

is it me or does andres torres look like the stick bug from 'a bug's life'?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Kevin Kolb really enjoys making Andy Reid look like the dumbest man alive.

Fred's Brim said...

how do you load the bases, hit a double off the wall and only score 1 run? amazing

karina said...

@Meaniebreanie @karen they do indeed look like boxing shoes.The first "pairs" he had we had to buy in Caracas so my mama figured out a better design and since then,she's making them herself. We want to buy him "more real looking" shoes

You see Coper on the hammock, fact is he actually jumps on hammocks. Explanation: my dad loves hammocks, he actually sleeps most of nights on a hammock, so Coper jumps on my dad's hammock anytime he likes, so he's like a pro doing that!

MR.F said...

Why is Kolb playing and not Vick?

karina said...

thanks Spanky and El montanero, I'll tell my mami :)

Fred's Brim said...

MeanieBreanie said...

Vick got knocked out of the game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Can't answer that one, Mr F.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

And apparently I don't have to.

spank said...

One last time:






BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

MeanieBreanie said...

At least we scored another run.

Fred's Brim said...

should I switch over to the Pods game?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

@FB - Only if you want to be depressed even further by watching Giants fans celebrating and cheering.

Fred's Brim said...

good point

Fred's Brim said...

I am excited to have KJ-74 on the team next year

spank said...

(cries)

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

KJ and HCK are the only bright spots of the 'pen.

(cries)

Fred's Brim said...

should I switch over to the Oakland-Seattle game?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Oakland/Houston you mean.

Kyle Baker said...

Sweet mother of shit! DSBG and David Hasselhoff just did a duet of Dont Stop on top of the visitors dugout.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I love hearing Joe Buck die a little every time he does a spot for a TV show.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Padres have three outs left before they're as dead as we are.

MR.F said...

Nice moment for Brad.

NicJ said...

was vin clapping?

spank said...

This weekend is getting more bizarre every minute.

MeanieBreanie said...

LASF
How you feel about he who has no name or cannot be named is about how I feel about Joe Buck.

karen said...

What a great moment for Brad Ausmus

Nostradamus said...

@db

They must've lured The Hoff out with the promise of performing with Jameson.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Eating a hamburger off the ground was the best thing that ever happened to David Hasslehoff. That and the German fandom.

MeanieBreanie said...

Heaven help me, Spanky just moved the spike and flipped me flat on my back. It's gonna be a fight now.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Oyster Pubes just drove a stake into the heart of the Pod Rays.

spank said...

Last inning Peeps






(cries)

MeanieBreanie said...

@DB, Mr. C
Hoff was lured out with the promise of a drink and a hamburger.

MR.F said...

@DB, are you at the game? Did they show DSB Guy and The Hoff on TV?

MR.F said...

Oyster Pubes HR. 3-0 Evils.

(cries)

karina said...

I wonder if the Sons will have GTs for the post-season so we all can be miserable together about the Giants going there

spank said...

That's right MB. Feel the force.

karina said...

The Giants scored another run :(

karen said...

I'm trying to take so comfort in the agony Pods fans must be feeling right about now

karen said...

^some

Nostradamus said...

Were there WS threads last year? I fled the country in.ieu of watching Yanks-Phils.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Peyton Manning just fucked me in the ass.

MeanieBreanie said...

Where is Santana Moss?

Nostradamus said...

That sounds…unpleasant, MLASF.

Kyle Baker said...

At Mr F

Yes. I'm at game.

spank said...

Now I'm wearing the spikes

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

It feels worse than it sounds.

MeanieBreanie said...

Spank
That's a little too kinky for me. I like my men as men.

karina said...

300!

spank said...

One more out




(cries)

Fred's Brim said...

good win, everybody

MR.F said...

Goodbye 2010 Dodgers.

spank said...

A toast to our beloved Dodgers. Dem Bums! Cheers

Nostradamus said...

@karina

I was in Italy, so as far as I'm concerned, it never happened. I refuse to believe otherwise.

karen said...

I'm going to miss listening to Vinny every night

karina said...

@Mr C 3:58 PM that's true love

spank said...

Tower of Power-So Very Hard To Go

Josh S. said...

Great ovation for the final out.

MeanieBreanie said...

Salute to our Dodgers and all the friends that have been made on this blog!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

It was a fun season, even though the team sucked something awful.

Fred's Brim said...

The Spaniels - Goodnight, Sweetheart, Goodnight
