Why wouldn’t I...Fanerman … of course I read them. Why wouldn’t I?<br /><br />Erin … I’ve been here before, several times. If you don’t recall those times, this is your problem, not mine. And I disagree with you about blog promotion … what’s with an interview at the top with some kid who doesn’t know a baseball from a powdered doughnut, calling himself the “don’t stop believing” guy? As for wanting to watch the game, well, that’s cool -- I hope you learned your lesson, though? You obviously didn’t suffer enough, and so you asked to suffer more. Don’t say you weren’t warned. And the true asshole is the one who resorts to name calling, is it not, Erin?<br /><br />“Dusty Baker” … This is awesome that you have online friends. I do, too. This is not an issue, and there’s no hating going on at all. I’m not “disrespecting the blog”, the blog did that on its own with their silly irrelevant stats and interviews. Why not keep it real; tell it like it is? Other Dodger sites have. You obviously have been a Dodger fan long enough to remember Dusty playing here, right? I have, too. I’ve been a fan of this team for 30 years, and suffered with this team for the last 21. You and I both know what’s up with this team, don’t we? Did you really think the Dodgers would even win one more game after Monday night, much less three in a row? Usually I respect what is said here, but I also know bullshit when I see it, and I simply called it out. ‘Tis all. There’s no need for you to hate on ME, just address what I said in my earlier post and tell me where I’m wrong? Did Padilla get solved? Did the bullpen get hit hard? Did they roll over and look like a beaten team?<br /><br />There is belief, which is great for fans … but there is a reality that the team doesn’t have belief in itself. The Dodgers are intimidated by the Phillies, and it affected every measure of their game. Broxton’s fear of Stairs on Monday is not unique to him at all, it is a reflection of his team; mostly its pitching staff that gave up 36 runs in 5 games. Sorry to point out the truth of the matter and say something most don’t want to hear, but it is what it is.JT_Dutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877216969973847360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-84664334588463369252009-10-21T13:29:44.696-07:002009-10-21T13:29:44.696-07:00I was pretty down after Monday's game, but I f...I was pretty down after Monday's game, but I feel optimistic for some reason. I'm not usually optimistic. I usually assume the worst (case in point, I proclaimed the series over after Ruiz's homer in game 1).<br /><br />I feel that even if the Dodgers don't win it, they are different than last year. They won 11 more games for a reason and it would be a shame to lose in the exact same way. I think that this team is going to get mad and put up a fight and make things tough on the Phils rather than roll over and play dead, much like they did last year.Matt Kemphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01233947015344166585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-55509865708956135812009-10-20T20:59:20.780-07:002009-10-20T20:59:20.780-07:00Come on, Blue!

I know we're all a little upset about how the season has turned out, but it's no reason to hate on each other, disrespect the blog, or to pile on the team you (I assume, but hard to tell from your comments) support.<br /><br />I couldn't pick a single blog owner or poster out of a crowd* but I can say without doubt I'd take a bullet for 'em.

Period. Take note. Maybe you've never seen a real one before. He (and the other Sons) write the blog out of love for the Dodgers. They do not write the blog so that awesome guys like you can come by and claim that they write the blog to get you to keep reading. There is no part of this post that indicates in any way that Sax just wants you to keep reading. He doesn't need to promote himself. We'll all give him page hits all winter, whether winter starts tomorrow or someday in the future. <br /><br />If he, or anyone else here, preaches hope, it is simply because we want to keep watching Dodger baseball. You don't want to? Fine, then don't. But some of us like to watch baseball. And some of us like to believe. And some of us aren't assholes.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03757248678792384479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-57871532946374349462009-10-20T17:27:19.573-07:002009-10-20T17:27:19.573-07:00@Dusty

Hahaha. Gotta love blogs.
"Please keep ...... Hahaha. Gotta love blogs.<br /><br />"Please keep reading my blog!!! Don't leave until next spring!!!They still have a shot!!! Here's some irrelevant stats to support a conclusion that I know instinctively doesn't have a chance in hell of coming to fruition!!!"<br /><br />If you've been following this team for any more than three seconds, you know exactly what's going to happen tomorrow. The offense will be silent, Padilla will be solved, the eviscerated and shell-shocked bullpen will continue to get their collective faces kicked in, and the Phillies fans will dance on their grave.<br /><br />I would recommend you not to watch the game, but for some of you, it will be an education about what it means to be a Dodger fan. Learn this pain, and get used to it. You think you're used to it already? Think again. If you choose to watch, you obviously haven't suffered enough.<br /><br />All the stats and regular-season accomplishments don't erase the fact that this Dodger team is human. And scared. Scared of the Phillies. Why? Who knows. Why did Broxton pitch around Stairs? Why do the Dodgers continue to give the Phillies too much respect? Was there any Dodger fan who DIDN'T see the ending to game 4 play out before it actually did? The Dodgers were waiting the entire game for the other shoe to drop, and when it finally did, they couldn't wait to get the hell off the field and get to the safety of the clubhouse. They're spooked, intimidated, SCARED. Tomorrow, there will be expressionless Dodger players, looking for all the world like they're marching to their execution. They will do everything they can to get it over with as quickly as possible.<br /><br />I, along with many fans I know, am relieved that I will not need to watch that. If you choose to watch it, don't worry -- you'll pay for it. But keep reading the blog!!!
