Random rantings and ravings about the Los Angeles Dodgers, written by a small consortium of rabid Dodger fans. With occasional comments on baseball, entertainment, pop culture, and life in general.
Rubby De La Rosa (3-0, 3.00) vs. Wandy Rodriguez (4-3, 3.13).
Four losses in a row to start this homestand, the latest off of a simply pathetic Astros team; I can't take it. In fact, I'm getting some r&r outside the confines of SoCal this weekend, and I can't bother my zen state is weekend with such losing ways. Oh, I'm quite certain I will be sneaking looks at my iPhone all night tomorrow during dinner. But for now, I'm going to be putting myself in a state of calm, calm, calm,...

This wet fart of a season rolls on.
WE SUCK
At least Guapo is humping his brains out. That monkey is all heart.

You don't know how close to home your comment was.

@Dusty
Frankie make a boom boom?
On the sofa, Vinny!
@Josh
Let's just say it wasn't Frankie and leave it at that.
Pulling up a chair, Vin!!
Hello Everybody!
Wotcherpale'sup, Karina!
Um, that's not Loney, Vinny. You know one easy way to tell Loney from Blake?
* Not making fun of Vin, just sayin'.
(Hopes he's not in trouble with Josh)
Rubby gets out of a minor jam. On to the good half of the 1st inning. Let's get some scores on the doors, boys!
Yay Andre! Signs of life in the Dodger line-up!!
Unable to capitalize. On to the 2nd. Blake's AB was particularly atrocious. We could have sent an orange traffic cone out there to take pitches instead.
Here to entertain,Vinny!
Eps,Y'all.
Rubby and Wandy.
Vin keeps saying Johnson. And talking about Wallace's thighs.
Joe Block confirming that Urine's new walk up song is a Rihanna track. How awkward!
Oh great. That's all we need is Rhi-Rhi gettin' all up in Matty's head again.
That is a dick move if Urine did that. Kick his ass ,Matty!
A very tired wotcher, everybody.
Rubby with a single.
Yeah. We still suck.
Barajas couldn't score on Gordons hit but at least I got to see violence.
The throw got to the plate, I went backpacking across Europe, and when I got back, Barajas was about halfway down from third.
I just read _War and Peace_. Is Barajas safe yet?
epale everyone!
they'll win tonight, thank you
sorry for not being around but my life is crazy busy now
We Suck 1/3
Karina, sort that out so you can spend more time trying to cheer us up!
anything bad happen yet?
@Mr. C: Barajas was out at home by about 4 Titanic screenings and someone in or near the Baker household had a wet fart.
I think that's it.
@Dusty sadly, I can't do that. In fact, due to work commitments, I'll be traveling to the middle of nowhere, in the border to Colombia with no phone, let alone Internet for a month, by late July, so it's critical you'll keep your spirits high!
That's pretty much it.
It's weird - I'm sitting here having a cocktail and cigar on my patio, listening to the game; everywhere else for blocks and blocks around me, power is out for many residents. I guess it's a little obnoxious to have the little twinkly patio lights on, eh?
Keeping spirits high is my trademark, K.
Oh, wait, those kind of spirits.
What are you doing, Karina, running drugs?
Slide away from the tag,Moron!
@Dusty 8:08 didn't know you had moved here...
hahahaha, no, filmmaking business :)
Karina Escobar
Nice one, Karina!
45
bottom of the fourth for the Dodgers makes me shake my head
Innings 1-9 generally make me shake my head these days.
c'mon Rubby, throw the unhittable!
@K
Ahh, so you're getting into porn, not drug running. Good career move.
Yeah, throw the unhittable curse.
Why is Rubby wearing a hula hoop?
@Dusty 8:17 how about the entire season?
*sighs*
Why does Rubby suck?
In the middle of this shitfest. I am just feeling lucky I am listening to Vinny.
Paul is my hero for focusing not on the good, but the great
*drvies over to the Czar's old place to punch holes in the walls*
Rubbish
Fucking Awesome!!
@Mr C why don't make holes in your own walls? I don't think there's enough space in the Czar's house
Rancho Futiliendo
WE SUCK/BLOW!!!!
Wow. I have no words.
No Comment
*saying as a mantra: it ain't over 'till it's over*
*fetal position*
Can they have Vinny start commenting on OTHER baseball games being played so we can enjoy him but not have to partake in this shitfest?
rancho ardiendo, again?
*cries*
I'd rather have Vinny read my bills right now.
Vinny could read a Michelle Bachmann speech and I'd still like it.
This is rather painful.
WILD PITCH?
why do I feel like yelling at Mattingly and Honeycutt?
WHY?
who got injured?
@Karina
Neither Mattingly nor Honeycutt threw that pitch.
@Karina
Pack of Tarjetas hurt.
This team keeps coming up with new ways to stink.
Honeycutt has been the pitching coach for too long.
Time to sign Driefort as Pitching Coach.
@Dusty
a) that's right but they should have done something with Rubby earlier.
b)I hope it's not related to making him to run beyond his means :(
christ on a cracker, make it stop.
If we were playing softball we would of been making fun of the way Barajas got her.
He needs some vagisil and he will be good for tomorrow.
So...
How many games over 100 will we lose this season?
I am always worried that blake and barajas are going ro get hurt with a swing.
How did those mexicans get those seats.
I'll take 8 under 100 for 25 bucks.
Were down 5-0? Mother fucker...
Moment of zen, Sax. Moment od zen.
When Vinny said "Let's get back to this one" I yelled at the TV "NO!" I don't want to get back to this one. Just keep telling old stories."
^of
You may need to switch over to the Diamond Sutra to get through this one, Sax.
@sax
U ever fix problem with iPhone closing before loading sosg.
I am in Texas and the fox cruel I making fun of the a-list celebrities avoiding Dodger games.
I sprained my left nuthing else on the tube.
@FV
The only very manual workaround I've found is to hit stop (X) before it fully loads. So let it load about 85% of the way then stop the page load.
@fernie
it's a safari thing. the ipad and iphone users among us found that iChromy works ok for SoSG.
Thanks fellas
welcome back, KJ
@Mr C
Is there an iChromy (or as Sax calls it, Aye Homie) for iPhone?
If iPhone has auto correct,Why does it not help Fernie wif his spelling?
100
Show us some magic Matty!
I think kemp hit his bison
epale sister!
@db
honestly, i assumed it was cross-platform. i'm not iphone literate.
(stupid fat fingers)
Turned off the game a while ago. How did Rod get hurt? The play at the plate?
so Barajas left the game with a hurt ankle
*cries*
It doesn't work when u need it.
Even moi would have swung at that,Matty. WTF!
You see,Matty? Urine swung at it.
(cries)
@Mr C
Just researched it. Only for iPad. Like this app but among other things, there's no delete history functionality. Ahem.
That said, I only use iChromy for SoSG. Like that, Sons? I have an entire app just so I can read your site.
Still waiting for Barajas to score,Vinny!
Well I made a very nice Dinner for my dad and we reminisced how the first game he took me to was one of the last for Cey Russell Lopes and Garvey.
Then we tried to avoid this game.
Philosophical question:
Why can I order a pizza, or Chinese food, but not a burrito? Wouldn't someone make a mint with a carryout burrito business?
i also use it only for SoSG.
Sax, you guys need to co-brand with iChromy.
Sweet mother of god we suck. That said, I've still devoted my entire Saturday evening to watching the game whilst sitting her on the sofa (Vinny) wearing one of my favorite Dodger tees.
(sighs)
despte the suck. i'm still invested in it. i can't let it go just because we're goddamn terrible.
Exactly, Mr C.
I just have nothing better to do.
I look forward to these games everyday and about the fifth inning I start to wonder what the hell is wrong with me.
I'm still watching. Sigh.
guys and gals, this is just a bad streak that have lasted the entire season so far, they'll improve at any time now.
@Karina
We can only get better. We can't get worse.
That's my pos statement for the day.
I am only watching cause I support Taiwan tourism.
I just finally saw that Jansen was called back up and Lindblom optioned. Hopefully he's seen enough bus rides and cheap hotels to be motivated to pitch well enough to stay up.
I would say the bad streak has lasted two seasons. But I still have positive thoughts...for next season.
Three Tecates down and I check the score. WTF is up now! Do we need paper bags over our heads now? Que terrible.
@Paul
Feel the mimosa!!!
Karina--I just love you and your good, positive thoughts!!:)
You're going to need more Tecate, Neeebs.
I may become a tecato(heroin hype)by the end of this season.
A burger place used to deliver over here, good idea dusty. What kind of burrito u craving
@karen *blushes*love you too sista! you should join us at Facebook...
This is a woeful display.
That is my educated comment of the day.
Ah shit, I walked the dog and now we are down 7-0.
9 hits?
@FV
Carne asada, rice, cheese, light sour cream, hot as shit salsa.
Not throwing in the towel, but I am turning off my notifications on my phone for Dodger updates. I feel like rocky watching the Russian beating a good friend of mine.
Sweet hit, Dre.
#thelittlethings
DIE, URINE, DIE
yay! lead-off single! go Dre!
And of course Urine done ficks shit up.
(cries like a schoolgirl)
and just like that, my joy dissipated...
@ dusty
Ordering me one but add some guacamole.
And just like that, my gin and tonic dissipated.
Instapoll:
Next drink choice:
Gin and tonic
Red wine
Bourbon
Manhattan
Scotch
All of the above
This team is like 80% dead weight.
@FV
Exactly. I accidentally left off the most important ingredient.
Wow Switchfoot is still making crappy music?
My mom and I have thought for some time now that Urine is still secretly on gnats payroll.
@Karina 9:36--I really don't go on Facebook very much but I'm there at Karen Morton if anyone wants to Friend me.
@ DB
Yes
Why even warm up Elbert?
Fuck we suck
Why even warm up leftover pizza?
@Karen
Which one? There are multiple instances of that name.
I'll drink to that loss
7-0? Fuck this shit
I'll drink to that pre-game warmup, the game itself, and the embarrassing loss.
Dusty--In my picture I am sitting down, am blonde and wearing a gray hoodie with gray Levis. Let me know if that helps.
You done messed up karen.You're going to a dark,dark place.
abyssmal.
@Karen
That was my guess! :-)
the good part is the Jints lost
*cries*
All is not lost! Great news, Karina!
Also, Return of the King is on.
I have a feeling the familia is getting larger.
^Degrassi:The Next Generation, season 8 is on ;)
WE SUCK
Number 4 down. We still sucking?
Doesn't it take about 15 Tecates to catch a buzz, Neeebs?
Step it up, bro!
Tecate dollar night at cubbys on Wednesday.
Ichromy worked just a little slow
You up on the iPad tip, Fernie?
good night boys and girls, tomorrow will be better for sure...
I'm pissing it faster than I can buzz it.
@Neeebs
(cries)
But these crazy South Americans are drinking Piscolas. I can't handle that tonight.
The cuervo gold,the fine colombian.
Now you're talkin, Spank.
I can drink more wine and stay soberer than all the heathen Hindoos in Asia! YEEE HAW! Gut Blowout! I am a Moray Eel, I am a Komodo Dragon, I am the Killer Whale bereft of its pup! I have a triple backbone, I was sired by the Wolf Man, give me all your Slack!
Return of the King is still on. As for Barajas, The Hobbit will be on DVD by the time he gets to home plate.
Old Foo- Exhausted
I may have said something but I think I forgot. Oh,I remember now. The Dodgers reek of animal waste from the Puppy Palace.
@Dusty 9:16p: my wife and I agree, a takeout burrito place would be brilliant.
