2 of the wins without Ethier. The Dodgers are riding a wave of swagger right now, and rightfully so with a nice string of quality starts and an offense to be reckoned with. But it's only a matter of time before one of those two pieces breaks (and with Ethier's injury, it might improbably end up being offense before pitching) and I have no faith that they'll ride out that slump and come back strong. But hey, if a sweep of SD in SD is ends up being the season high point, I'll take it.

I'm imagining you both with your hair moussed, your teeth capped, wearing a loud suit with a tiny knotted tie, speaking really loudly and being filmed from below to make you look like gods.

Absolutely appalling. And I don't mean the boy.

Amusing footnote...the very next night another guy ran onto the field. Bravo says I, putting aside my usual contempt for the idiots who run on the field in favor of the spirit of "fvck tasers as intimidation tools."

The amusing comes in when we learn that this genius ran onto the field...with weed in his pocket and got busted on marijuana possession. Hah.

Yeah, it is important to recognize that while they shouldn't be tasered, the people who run on the field are generally idiots (whether natural or chemically induced).

Though I must admit that if tasing becomes the norm, I'd be tempted to run out on the field. I'm kind of curious what it is like to be tasered.

I knew the Padres were going to be a bit vengeful when they came into town.

Also made my night to hear that Manny hurt his foot. Good health is certainly not one of the team's strong points right now.

Ghoulish Delight · 05-20-2010, 06:53 AM

Eh, a loss with Ramon Ortiz on the mound doesn't strike me as something to worry about. Tonight will be the telling game.

You know, there may have been more truth in this quip than I realized.

Considering that on April 29 they were 6 games under .500 and 6 games out of first place, only to swing to 7 games over .500 and a tie for first place today.
