I am Dodger fan, and have been for 33 years........
And the 11-2 start..................
I am glad.........but worried to put too much emotion this far into the season.
I look at the roster.
Doesn't look as good as the record. BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have hope.
God love Tommy Lasorda and Dodger Blue.
It's a long season. Here's to hoping the beginning equals the middle and the end.

Gotta give Tracy, Depodesta and the Dodgers props for their strong start. I had them pegged for third place in the division behind the Giants and Padres. I didn't think they'd be awful but just not in contention. It's a good time for them to play like this with the Lakers and Clippers finally being put out of their misery.

Poot.
Yea, Dodgerfan that cried about all the piss poor moves they were making, all that "chemistry" bullshit, then not signing the 68 million dollar, MVP candidiate after one year, then trading that waste of space, Green, FINALLY!!!!! Trading Mota? Mota? That was supposed to kill them? Mota and LoDuca? Well, Phillips is one sorry SOB but it just goes to show you how much crack is in LA when they start whigging out over Paul only because they fell in love with him after the ring baring Piazza left town. Oh yea, that's right, he has no rings.
They had no sticks last year! So they brought in JD, Ricky, Jose, and Jeff (probably my only concern due to age/injury and since Cora was proving his defensive skills with Izturis)) and they had Yancy to bring up as the next Mota. LA fan playing general manager is the funniest thing I ever hear on the radio, Lakers or Dodgers. FREAK! THEY STILL HAVE GAGNE AND PENNY ON THE SHELF, and you all don't think this can last? JD has barely even been hitting. As long as Penny can come in and play a full season, they are set. The middle relief will only be strengthened when Yancy goes to set up upon Gange's return and with Penny, Lowe and Perez slinging it, I do not see how so many can be surprised and do not think it could last. If Weaver can become consistent...forgetta 'bout it. Who compares?
I heard Tommy Lasorda on the radio before the seaosn and was like, "Yea, talk that shit." He basically was telling LA that they were full of shit if they came in and criticized the team during the off season. Like a bad hold 'em hand, people get married to the wrong things and are willing to go down with the ship instead of bailing out and trying to play another set. This TEAM is well balanced and more importantly, they are getting the far more value for their dollar after fixing this mess left behind by the dumbass GMs of the past. They will be there in the end. I am not putting rings on their fingers by any means but they are as solid as should have been expected. 12-2? You don't expect that but 10-4, 9-5 was nowhere beyond reasonable expectations.

Went to Dodger Stadium this afternoon, they need to do some serious work on the fan experience. Very little of the organ music of Nancy B, but lots of shitty rap and hip hop. The seats are in serious need of replacement, unless you are in those new dugout club seats.
Oh yeah Jeff Weaver (3 HR given up in the 6th) and JD Pew....errrr Drew (whatsup .250 average with a whopping 2 HR) absolutely SUCK!!!!
