They don’t count as fans, they don’t even understand the sport.

Even worse than Manny Ramirez?

I’ve got a bias, but all I want to see in this post-season is the Dodgers losing.

I'd have to disagree with that.

Why?

He is the best post season hitter in baseball, and has “character”. Plus he dogged it in boston to get out off a team everyone hates that didn’t care about manny.

A man so full of himself even Boston fans couldn't love him anymore?

I don’t see “faking injuries and generally not giving a crap so a team’ll dump me” as a good thing.

Now, granted, I’m a Diamondbacks fan, so I’m also bitter that his asinine behavior meant that the damn Red Sox paid his salary to send him to Los Angeles, so now I get to listen to how Joe Torre is a genius for taking a $100 million payroll plus a free slugger and squeaking his way into the playoffs.

Oh

And I’d take Pujols over Manny any day of the week.

You couldn't trade for Pujols if you wanted too

Torre is a genius. The dodgers are the best team in the NL, and wouldn’t be without him.

by putupyourDUKES on Oct 9, 2008 6:08 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'm not saying I could trade for him

I’m just saying he’s a better player than Manny.

I’d say the Dodgers are the streakiest team in the NL.

or the team that got their two best players for the playoffs

They also figured out they should be playing Manny, Ethier, and Kemp over Pierre and Jones.

by rglass44 on Oct 9, 2008 6:25 PM EDT up reply actions  

Trust me, they're streaky

The Dodgers can go into a funk and get swept as easily as they can get hot and sweep a team. Look at how they played during the season, even after Manny got there.

Manny and Furcal can’t change the fact that the Phillies averaged over 5 runs a game off the Dodgers pitchers this season.

3 hits from anyone other than Ethier and Ramirez tonight

Like I said, streaky.

does

anyone know what section and seats are the top right part of the LF seats. From what I’ve seen those are limited view because of the Power Alley Pub…

Section 149

And yes, it limits your view of right field.

I was able

to buy 8 more tickets in a “Second Chance” sale that happened today at 4pm. I was able to get 4 more for game 1 and 4 more for game 2. Did anyone else get selected for this?

Manny is back in his prime, it seems

I know he wants to stick it to the Sox but he is insane

by joeybw on Oct 9, 2008 8:27 PM EDT reply actions  

Where are all the Man Ram haters now?

He is the best post season hitter in the league right now period.

by putupyourDUKES on Oct 9, 2008 8:29 PM EDT reply actions  

he also had 53 rbis in 53 games with the Dodgers

Welcome back to being the best hitter in baseball, Manny

I don’t think anyone here will be upset that he didn’t try very hard with Boston.

by joeybw on Oct 9, 2008 8:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

Is there no one here?

Am I the only one watching this game?

by kericr on Oct 9, 2008 9:43 PM EDT reply actions  

I am now

Was watching a bad episode of The Office

Dodger still winning, I see.

by joeybw on Oct 9, 2008 9:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

That episode was hilarious
