The Dodgers
So I'm not the most hard core baseball fan. Really, I'm not much of a sports nut at all.
However, the Dodger seed was sewn very early in my developmental history. At age 6 I couldn't have told you what a batting average was, but I knew that the Dodgers were the good guys. And now, having once again returned to Dodger territory, pulling for the home team feels a bit like getting back to my roots. Lord knows, they need it. Having totally thrown away their division lead from earlier in the season, they're four games down with not too many left in the home stretch. Nevertheless, though I'm skeptical about their chances of even landing a wildcard spot, I've gotta root for the home team.
Oh for the days of Hersheiser and Lasorda...
