Father of the Year

How appropriate that we're posting this right after Father's Day. We got this note:

I live in Burlingame, just 10 miles south of AT&T Park. From day 1, I've raised my 10-year-old son to be a Dodgers fan. Based on his fifth grade graduation speech delivered this morning, it's clear he's embraced his fate.

I've never been so proud.

Not only is this proof of fine parenting, but it's a nice reminder during a difficult season of the definition of "true fans." Way to stand tall in enemy territory, guys!

I will find this kid and I will buy him some Dodger gear.

Who am I kidding? I don't exactly have the investigative abilities of Burt Macklin, FBI.

Dodger Nation: We aren't having the season we envisioned. We just have to be more consistent on offense and everything will come together!

Magic is kinda annoying on twitter.

I live in Napa, surrounded by giants fans (and some A's fans too, but they don't bother me). My daughter is in third grade and is becoming a Dodger girl, despite the odds and pressure. This posting was one of the coolest and most awesome things I have seen in a very long time.
