Dodgers. Mets. NLDS. 2006. Remember that? 2006 was a shitty playoffs year. First there was Joe Beimel. Joe Fuckin' Beimel. That's right, we're not afraid to bring him up because he's a symbol of the Dodgers' haunted playoff history against the Mets — a history that can get purged today.
Then there was the infamous home-plate double play, starring Paul "Fuck the Dodgers" Lo Duca. That's right, same year! The Dodgers' most humiliating playoff moment of the aughts still stings nine years later.
But...things are different now. The Dodgers, playing like zombies until, oh, the seventh inning of Game 2, are now the most hated team in the playoffs.
Chase Utley, true Dodger
— Sons of Steve Garvey (@sosgsosg) October 11, 2015And in the center of the storm is one Chase Utley, until recently firmly in the Jim Thome school of "Legends for Other Teams with a Few Meaningless Innings as a Dodger."
If the Dodgers can step on the Mets' throat today, reveling in the boos and inevitable HBPs, and come away with a huge Game 3 win, we'll look back at the "Chase Utley moment" that started it all. Go make history, Boys in Blue!

I am so pumped for this game...I'm feelin' gnat kind of HATE.
CHASE UTLEY...You. Are. The. Man.
...and oh yeah, I keep thinking about your dick...
Hmmm
Oh c'mon Orel...you're thinking it too!!!!!!! :)
WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE THEN
See...this is why I LOVE YOU GUYS...you are men of honor and totally comfortable in your sexuality...........
Grandal and Crawford again? Don't like it but gooooooo dirty Dodgers!
Kershaw starting Game 4, so we'll see Ellis then
I can't defend starting Crawford
Schwarber HR!
1-0 Cubs bot of 2...
How did you beat me on that one???
(blows smoke from gun)
karen, the correct reaction is DAMMIT!
If Crawford goes anything less than a three-hit, one RBI game, I am done with him
@Orel...DAMMIT!
Gnomes with the assist...
Rollins and no Seager, so Harvey can still plunk a Phillie
Tied at 1 in 4th at Wrigley...
2-1 Turds still up in 4th...
St. Louis ties it up. If anyone can beat Arrieta, it's the Cards, unfortunately
I am staring at that lineup and totally confused.
Kendrick as leadoff?
Rollins next?
Grandal over Ellis?
Crawford over anyone?
WHAT IS GOING ON HERE
Does Mattingly know it's a pivotal third game?
I hope he proves me wrong. But he won't.
Plunk a Phillie is my favorite carnival game
Castro with a solo ties it at 2...
Go Cubbies!
(Original) Orel saying this is the first time in MLB history a player has been suspended without being ejected from the game.
Alanna at Shiti Field in Queens saying it should be called Chase Field....
Nice reporting, original-flavor Orel!
Asked about the retaliation factor in tonights game Matt Harvey "...sticking up for your teammates means being out there and doing the right thing".
Hmmmm......
Bryant 2-run HR! Cubs leading 4-2! Can't believe the Dodgers coulda had Wacha!
Buster Olney reporting MLB back peddling on suspension telling Chutley if he doesn't appeal, suspension will be reduced to 1 game.
^^^Per JHairJr...
Fireworks at Wrigley! Rizzo solo HR makes it 5-2 Cubs
Now Cards players are taking each other out. Awesome.
FB checking in. Mrs FB brought home a sixer of Founders Dirty Bastard. I can't think of a more appropriate choice for tonight, with the name and ABV (8.5)
And FB checking out, gonna be absent from the thread tonight. Good luck and keep the cock fresh in your mind. Lets get this one!
Thanks for the drive-by, FB!
Uh-oh, Cards threatening. 5-4 Cubs, top 6
Absent tonight but bringing the mojo to Game 4!!!
@ Saxy - what's confusing about the Dodgers lineup today? remember it's Muttingly for crying out loud.
p.s. i'm still thinking about Chutley's Louisville Slugger.
With all of the replays of my man Chutley's slide I'm having Joe Theisman flashbacks...
JHairJR...."Two rules in life...Never turn your back on a camera and never turn your back on an incoming runner".
Dude!!!!
for the Dodgers to win i gotta do exactly what i did Saturday during the game. wish i had a partner.
(cries)
^^^hehehe
Game time for the game that matters and Cubs/Turds only in 6th inning...
As much as I HATE Oyster Pubes, I gotta admit, I dig his Esurance commercial.
Important game is over on TNT...
Ump issues warning to start the game...
Not clear if there was a warning or not....
The Granderson shift.
I had to leave to get my daughter...did we ever figure out what the umps had going on at the start???
Nice job, Branderson.
Snacks Baby!!
No score through 1
Can't get the damn feed
Replay phone in Dodgers dugout was broken.
That was the reason for game delay at the start.
Replay phone wasn't functioning in the dugouts....
My daughter just pointed out to me that JT looks like Yukon Cornielus in the Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer cartoon. I totally see it!!
Bases juiced with no outs in 2...
Wow. How do they mess this one up?
bases loaded bases loaded bases loaded
My wife says triple play. You heard it here first.
3 RUNS BABEEEEEE!!!!
That's how!!
That's what I meant by a triple play.
Grandal's first hit in a month! At least it feels that way.
Rollins, you slow poke
I can't get TNT! Are we winning?
this is not good, we are giving it back
Not for long, it appears
Orel: Grandal with a bases-loaded double, clears the bases. 3-0 good guys.
Cespedes and Duda lead off with singles. Two on, none out. Cespedes just scores, so it's 3-1, Mets on first and second, no out.
You'd fuck up a free lunch Anderson
So, it's going to be that kind of game.
get it together Anderson. sack up
Sign up for Sling TV. First week is free, so you can cancel after tonight. TNT and TBS are in the basic package.
WE ARE FALLING APART
Howie error loads the bases again with none out
Great play, a-gon
Give me a DP here
Once again...Thank God for Adrian Gonzalez.....
uh oh
This is the worst game in the world.
Of course that happened.
Yep...it's a Dodgers game alright...
(sobs)
Before that inning I said Brett give us a shutdown inning please. Sorry I failed :(
So much for my starting the veteran over the rook theory.
So...not a pitchers' duel
SPANKY...Not that I'm superstitious or anything but whatever it was you were doing with yourself when we won Saturday keep doing it.
iu'll make sweet luv to Dre if he does good here
thank you jesus
(cries)
Ok I have to hop and I'm worried again. Can't believe Anderson gave it all back that quickly. let's see if he gives back more
sorry Karen,i'm unable to comply with that request at this moment. had to return the bunny costume halfway through the second inning.
In honor of my Mama whose birthday is today, I can't let that Viagra commercial go by without giving her a shout out. She would just laugh hysterically when they are listing all the side effects and they say to contact your doctor if you lose your sight or hearing. Now that's damn funny...you guys might not think so but trust me, we ladies get a little giggle every single time...HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM, I LOVE AND MISS YOU!!!!
Spank...I can assume though that the rally thong has been put to good use...
son of a bitch
Saxy...6:43...I think we got our answer...
Faaaaack
might as well be a 10 run lead with this sad lot on offense
I have a splitting headache, my acid reflux is acting up and I think my ulcer is bleeding. Other then that, I'm having a fucking great time...
welp
We are done. Anderson sucks. Crawford sucks. Ethier Ks when we need him.
i miss Mat Latos
I can't take it anymore. I'll do what I usually do and stop watching for awhile so my stomach and blood pressure get a chance to go back to normal.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KARENS MOM!!
Joc pinch hitting
Hey, remember all those home runs our team hit this year?
I don't think this is over, but I've started thinking about secondary objectives. Namely, the Cards getting eliminated, so SOMEONE'S championship drought ends.
Erin makes a good point. Weren't we number 1 in NL in home runs? Let's all channel our inner Karina and focus on that...
I know this is long ago spilt milk but I miss Ryu sob sob sob...
If ever we needed proof that momentum doesn't exist
Joc would have caught that?
kinder happy place
kinder happy place
kinder happy place
Not feeling good about this walk to Wright....
Prophetic, Karen.
We are pretty much screwed Donnie have that resume ready?
BOMB SQUAD BABY!
It's okay to stop watching now, right?
Alex Wood was not the answer.
Mets lead 10-3 and we're back to the old narrative: Kershaw on short rest
I'm turning it off.
We knocked Harvey out!
this game is in the toilet. it's okay to split the scene. i want to go on record saying that i would have liked to have seen Kershaw pitch game 5 in Dodgers Stadium and that i will be a Greinke fan next season. Dude was a beast for the Dodgers.
AGon HR!
That last comment is so sad and lonely by itself.
Howie 3-run jack! 13-7
