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.
First up comes the game the Dodgers were hoping to attend: Cards at Braves. Could this be Chipper's last stand?
Second comes Orioles @ Rangers. Orioles have a handful of lucky beans while the Rangers are pissed they choked at season's end. Here we go.

My picks for known matchups:
Braves
Orioles
Reds
Athletics
The O's pick is looking grim. Joe Saunders? Yeesh.
My pick is for the Barves to be leading 2-0 in the bottom of the second.
Nosty? Is that you?
Top of the turd.
This is Barves Crounty!
Aw, shit.
Sonofallthatisrightwiththeworld!
Mothballs mixed with Night Train and Scotch Tape extract is what sent three Flaming Menudos band members into rehab at the same time back in 1983. They missed the whole Granada invasion thing.
I thought they were rehabbing IN Grenada, hence the invasion.
Grenada has the world's richest mothball vein; hence, the "summer home."
*streaks*
Damn, I thought you said "steaks".
5-2 STL in top 7th. Not looking good for Barves.
SO LONG, LARRY.
6-3 but Barves rally killed to end the 7th.
The Shards' lead was a rally-killer for my daytime drinking, too. I need to get back in the game.
6-3 bottom 8th. Barves one-out rally cooking. Bases loaded w only one out. Excuse me - rancho ardiendo.
Ranchos are ardiendoed bc Shards let a ball drop in short LF on a mixup. High drama.
Or not.
Brave comeback?
Infield fly rule was apparently called. That ball was way the fuck into the OF. That is a very different definition of infield than I know of.
Infield fly rule called very late, too, right before the ball even dropped.
Barves fans showering the filed with empty Bud Light cans. Right on!
Gift call for Larry.
Freeman with a 2 out double in the bottom of the ninth.
And Uggla grounds out to end it.
Why couldn't we have been the team that all of Atlanta is pissed at?
Saunders starting off strong: walking the lead off guy.
This is a much better game.
*steaks*
take your pick:
1. finish strong and nearly make the playoffs after an up and down season
2. Lose 7 of nine to drop into the wildcard slot and lose to a team that wears black and orange with an old asshole for an owner
mmm steaks
lots of out-of-the-woodwork Orioles fans at the game
I am sure the same phony cnuts will be at the bar on Sunday wearing their RG III jerseys
good job, Os.
I hope your owner chokes on his crab legs
Pretty sure Braves have the worst scenario, FB.
2011: Choke away a solid WC lead and get eliminated on the last day.
2012: Maintain a solid 6+ game lead in the WC for what would have been a surefire trip to the NLDS under the old system, lose a one game playoff to an inferior team thanks to mental fuckups and shitty officiating.
