The Knack

May 26, 2023

It sounds like the Dodgers might get The Knack soon. Great, I used to love the Knack. They had several great songs, like this one: What? It’s not “The Knack?” Is it Landon Knack? Oh, him… who knew? My bad! Well, actually… I have an opinion on this, and I think that just like Michael Grove, Landon Knack should bypass AAA and go directly to Chavez Ravine! He’s so much…

Freddie Freeman: Class Act

May 25, 2023

Last spring the Dodgers signed one of the best hitters in the game to a six-year deal. Freddie Freeman has done everything a fan, or the team could ask for. He is hitting .320 plus as a Dodger, and while not hitting a ton of home runs, he is driving in runs, scoring runs, and leading by example. Freeman is a pros pro. Freeman, whose birth name is Frederick Charles…

Did You Learn Anything?

May 24, 2023

Before the Dodgers played the Cardinals, they had won 14 out of 16 games, and then they lost 3 out of 4 to the Cardinals, and many of you lost your minds, wanting to trade away the farm for Timmy Anderson or somebody, anybody… “this team sucks” and all the rest of the BS that you spew when the Dodgers lose. Come on, people, this 2023 version of the Dodgers…

Pitching, pitching, and more pitching.

May 23, 2023

If you have been a fan anytime at all, you have to know that pitching wins championships. You look at any of the Dodgers 7 World Series winners, and there are outstanding games pitched in each. The Dodger system is loaded with young arms who have lightning in them. Flame throwers who can top 95 consistently. Now throwing it where they want, that is another story. Because of injuries, two…

I’ve Seen This Story Before

May 22, 2023

Since becoming a Dodgers fan at age 9, sixty years ago, I have seen this story so many times that I laugh instead of panic. Most years, the Dodgers had no chance, but I rooted for them anyway. In 1988, they had no chance, but the impossible happened! Over the past ten years, Dodger fans fully expect to win every game, every year… and rightfully so! The Dodgers are the…

Follow Your Heart

May 21, 2023

Having lived in other cities who have MLB teams, I know that sometimes the folks who live in those cities, or even states, feel you should be a fan of the team that plays there. I spent 12 years living in Phoenix and I have been here in Colorado for almost 13. When I was driving long haul and working out of Denver, I did that for almost 7. So,…

Who In The World Would Ever Want To Be A Catcher???

May 16, 2023

After seeing Will Smith spend more than ten days out with the MLB concussion protocol, it got me wondering why anyone in their right mind would make catching their profession. But many have answered that call. And over the years, the Dodgers have had some very talented ones. Mike Piazza may have been the best-hitting catcher they have ever produced. Campanella was a great defender and so far, the only…

Monday Rants & Raves

May 15, 2023

Attention, Peter Seidler and his band of wannabes, never-weres, and just plain punks, the Dragon up the Freeway is alive and well and it just smoked your ass, you bunch of disrespectful reform-school dropouts! Clayton Kershaew’s Mother, Marianne Tombaugh, died Saturday. Up until now, we know very little about her life and death. Perhaps, Clayton will keep it that way… perhaps not. We learned very little about his father, who…
