last night...

So yeah, Rich Harden's shutout last night that was almost a no-hitter? I had the good fortune of seeing it live at the Coliseum with kaottic97 and a bunch of his friends (btw, last time I saw Harden, he pitched seven innings of the 16-0 shutout v. the Giants ( Read more... )

My father in law was at one of Kofax's no-no's back in the day. His father used to always leave at the 7th inning....they are Dodger fans after all....

So after the 6th inning his Dad looks at him and asks, 'are you ready to go?'

Luckily he had enough sense to be joking.

Oh please... Giants fans are notorious leavers too. But I suppose you're going to get all righteous about leaving in the 8th instead of the 7th, or something.

hckydntst July 15 2005, 21:18:56 UTC

damn straight, i think i've only left 1 or 2 games early.

odd_dog July 15 2005, 21:26:33 UTC

The 8th inning still counts as leaving early :-P

hckydntst July 15 2005, 21:28:53 UTC

I know, I'm hardcore Candlestick, yo.

odd_dog July 15 2005, 22:08:38 UTC

awwwww... back in the 90s, my dad would have been so happy that you were my stalker!

hckydntst July 15 2005, 22:09:38 UTC

heh, what's his opinion of mr. street then?

odd_dog July 15 2005, 22:11:48 UTC

I still don't think he's read the Street column I sent him... but I do know that he prefers our Harden to your Tomko, that's a start!

hckydntst July 15 2005, 22:24:24 UTC

wow, comparison to Tomko, is that sound I hear the bar lowering?

odd_dog July 15 2005, 22:41:27 UTC

that would be known as "limbo," yes. Dante calls that state the first circle of hell, I prefer to think of it as the state wherein my dad completes his transition from Giants fan to A's fan. So really, more like purgatory when you think about it. HEAVEN AWAITS :-P

hckydntst July 15 2005, 22:42:38 UTC

as opposed to the decent into hell that is the designated hitter

Well, to be fair, I think Durazo has taken some of the sanctity out of that position.

But, like, $10 for standing room when you could have $2 upper deck?? C'mon!!

hckydntst July 15 2005, 22:45:28 UTC

don't blame the team for the power that is supply and demand.

odd_dog July 15 2005, 23:28:06 UTC

I'll just blame them for sucking on a larger payroll, then?

hckydntst July 15 2005, 23:36:38 UTC

and you'd be 100% correct ;)

that's mostly the tourists. believe me, the LA fans historically only show up for the middle three innings, and since the advent of cell phones, don't pay attention to any of them.
