That's funny - America has a wankfest with St. Louis: "Ohhhh...the best and most knowledgable and loyal fans in all of Baseball!" and I cannot stand those bunch of cnuts, stemming directly from the 80s, as well. Jack fecking Clark and Tommy letting Niedenfeur pitch to him with 1st base open - I ran home from fecking school that afternoon (easily 2 miles - I was 9) just fast enough to stumble in and see Clark park one into the Pavillion seats. I was fecking crushed. I hated Vince Coleman, I hated Willie McGee, I hated John Tudor (we traded for that ballbag and he faked an arm injury and did nothing for us), I hated Tommy Herr, I hated Whitey Herzog, I hated the fecking Anheiser-Busch Clydsdales, I hated all of them. THEN...we go and hire Jack fecking Clark as our hitting coach a couple of seasons ago. He almost ruined Adrian Beltre's career (great move leaving, Ade) and presided over one of the worst offensive Dodgers clubs there has ever been. Luckily, he had a serious motorcycle accident during his second season with us and was subsequently fired for being terrible and for being an ex-Cardinal/Giant cnut.
Can you tell I'm still bothered by all of this? Thank Christ for Gibby and '88. One of the highlights of my life!

Wasn't it B. Bonds who couldn't throw out that broken down mule Sid Bream from deep short? I believe he two-hopped it from therejasonrh said:Your Cardinals stuff is absolutely exactly how I felt/feel about them. When they signed McGuire it was all the confirmation I needed in my suspicion that McGuire was a cnut. Now he's a steriod-wracked DD breasted cnut.
The Gibson moment, however, was a bit traumatising, as I was laughing at my dad for them playing a cripple, and he does That. I only made up for it when, a few years later, he was doing his "turn out the lights, the party's over" song as Sid Bream crossed the plate.

St. Louis Cardinals = Scum
SF Giants = Scum
Anaheim Angels = Scum
I have a begrudging respect for the Yankees, as they're the Rolls Royce of MLB, but I still can't really stand them.
The Braves and the Cubs I always kind of dug - with TBS and WGN on TV...there was always baseball on TV before the Dodgers games. Nice memories. Dale Murphy, Glenn Hubbard, Kent Oberkfel, Leon Durham, Ryne Sandberg, Skip and Harry Caray - good times.

He does the ABC Pac-10 games, they always seem to be the UCLA ones, as well. Have you heard any Keith Jack - Son?

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!
I take extreme pleasure in knowing that - no matter how weird/bad this season has gotten after our great start - you lot are royally fcuked. Worst club in the Majors, by far...and Juan Marichal is scum of the highest order. We love Jeff Kent, btw - gonna be the NL All-Star 2nd baseman, in case you hadn't heard.
Here's hoping that Alou and Sabean finish off what the Earthquake/Fire of 1906 started
(SBC Park is gorgeous, btw. Can't wait to get back there.
SBC Park is indeed gorgeous, and the fans who go there are (for the most part) more polite than those who go to Dodger Stadium. Bunch of jerks there, for the most part. Agree 100%DEB said:I'm a Giants fan who doesn't particulary like Barry Bonds. I suspect that there is a lot us in that boat. But I'm a fan, nonetheless.
I had an awful experience there last season (right after I moved to LA) and I don't want to go back.
I completely expected some good-natured ribbing. It's part of the package, going to support the Giants in Dodger Stadium. Heck, I'll give as good as I get. But the abuse we had to deal with was ridiculous -- I'd actually call it assault without the battery; and security/ushers didn't do anything about it. It was a complete waste. We paid face value (bought them from a woman on our softball team) including parking for decent seats on the 3rd base side pretty much even with the bag, in the second deck, for the Giants game -- last series of the season before playoffs. Glad to hear that LAPD is there now, hopefully they can do some good.TheDevil'sOwn said:

Weak year nationally, if ratings are to be believed. I doubt that.FLASHWOK said:Hinds I agree with, but Eazy E with 175 Exstacy pills...he really brought alot of heat down on the program...totally stupid.
UCLA already gets plenty of kids from Poly, Dominguez etc...SC has always had the lock on the best kids from out of there though...even DeSean Jackson from LB Poly last year preferred Cal to UCLA...I was shocked we didn't get him though TBH...but he saw he could get substantial playing time at Cal this year wheras he would have been behind or competing with Smith Jarrett Lewis and Turner etc at SC.
we will get Allen Bradford, Stafon Johnson, David Ausberry, Alan Parsons...
we might get C.J. Gable, Jonas Mouton, Konrad Reuland, Darian Hagan Jr. (though Bienimy's Colorado connection to Hagan's dad could work for UCLA.)
If we offer them, we will get Jovon Hayes and Rodney Glass.
I think overall thought it's a weak year for Cali...

Cue Marcello scrambling through his monitor to choke the life out of you for saying that. The only thing to come out of Texas are steers and queers, unfortunately.FLASHWOK said:indeed
but there are some top guys this year as well nationally. Florida is strong as usual...Texas has boatloads of talented players, with no heart.

(Hope MrM has horns
Recruiting's a laugh. You never can tell which way it's gonna go. The usual hotbeds will do their part...it's the elites out of the not-so-hotbeds that sometimes can change a class and a program.
They won the College World Series tonight, actually. But that's College Baseball.FLASHWOK said:I think even Marcello would agree that The Texas Longhorns are perennial preseason national championship contenders, and then perrenial in season disappointments...
I can't even remember the last time the Horns won a National Championship.
They're going on about a decade of "this could be the year we beat OU..."FLASHWOK said:God knows...I expect it won't be much longer though if he doesn't win an NC soon...he's had the talent, except recently, alot of the top texas talent has headed north to soonerville.
this could be the year they beat oklahoma...but probably not...again.
