Foe Fodder: The Los Angeles Dodgers

[AngelsWin.com]

By Glen McKee, Mr. Excited - 

See that pic above?  That’s how I felt when I looked at the schedule and saw that the Angels were playing the Dodgers in Chavez Latrine and I got to write the Foe Fodder for it.  OMG!  This is like a musician getting to work with Dave Grohl or a chef getting to stab Guy Frieri in his fat effing face and getting away with it.  The Dodgers!  They’re easier to hate than the Yankees or the Red Sox.  Wow.  I’m so nervous; I hope I don’t screw this up.

The Dodgers.  Our neighbors to the north that actually play in that hell-hole that is Los Angeles.  The team with the fans that make the fans from every other team look civil and intelligent.  Do you know how hard that is, to make chowds look respectable?  Somehow, Dodgers fans do it.  I could make some easy jokes about how many of the Dodgers fans watch the games from a prison cell, or how many of them think that closed captioning in English is written in Arabic, or how few of them actually have a job, or how they smell like a septic tank fucked by a hobo, but I digress.  I’m sure they have some good fans.  Somewhere outside of their home city, that is.

And the team.  For a while they had one of the few owners that makes Arte Moreno look good, Frank McCourt, and they finally got rid of him and got themselves a consortium (if you ever see the word “consortium” used you know you’re talking about a group of filthy rich people) ownership that spent a metric ton of money and still can’t get past the first round of the playoffs.  They fired a manager that made their dysfunctional team actually work together and now that manager (Don Mattingly) is making the Marlins into a respectable team.  

And their rivalry with the Angels.  Hoo boy, Dodgers fans like to talk about how many World Series championships they’ve won, like it’s happened sometime recently.  At least we have 2002, which was only (sigh) 14 years ago.  The last time the Dodgers won a championship was when Reagan was president and before I got laid for the first time.  Now, I was a late bloomer but I’ve already retired from one career and started another; that tells you how long ago that was.  The last time the Dodgers won a championship an IBM PC with a 30 mb hard disk cost $1249.  For Pete’s sake, the last time the Dodgers won a championship was the year that crack was introduced.  Most of the Dodgers fans that were in prison for life during their last championship have already been paroled or died.  I think you get the picture.  It’s been a long time.  In fact, the last time the Dodgers won a championship was the year I joined the Navy and I’ve already almost forgotten that year (yeah, there was a lot of drinking, but still).

So, bring it on, Los Doyyers.  Deep inside your team sucks and your fans know it.  That’s why they get so upset when they’re around any other baseball fans.

What I get from Glen is the last time the Dodgers won a championship he both joined the Navy and lost his virginity. And that is why he follows the band Venus Envy.

The last time the Dodgers won a World Series, Scioscia only had 1 chin

[Troll Daddy]

Yikes!

Shoey vs Maeda

Weaver vs Kershaw

Dodgers are huge favorites the first two games. Probably why we'll win both of them.

We'll do fine. BTW...it's been so long since the Dodgers won the World Series, AO's pop culture references were still current.

"Most of the Dodgers fans that were in prison for life during their last championship have already been paroled or died."

I'm hoping they died.

I've never had an issue with dodger fans. Yeah there's the friendly smack talk but that's about it. I've been to dodger stadium many times in the upper deck and lower deck even the outfield in full Angels gear and not one serious threat. I also enjoy dodger stadium. Beautiful place to watch a baseball game

Granted I have only been there 8-10 times over my lifetime during the fwy series, I've always had at least one pissy encounter at the Latrine.

Nando's what we call a risk taker.

A dude much larger than me (it doesn't take much) shoved my wife after the Angels beat the Dodgers several years ago.  I thought I was about to get the shit kicked out of me when security thankfully stepped in and witnessed the whole thing.

I would never go back there again.

Other things I experienced was bathrooms overrun with piss, dodgers fans pouring beer on visiting fans.  A fat guy pulling his dick out and waving it at a hot chick, and a huge brawl in the parking lot.

[Amazing Larry]

Sounds like a family friendly environment.

The last ounce of dignity in that organization is retiring from the booth at the end of the season.

Sounds like a typical Tuesday night at a Dodger game

They were a clown org when McCourt owned them.

Last time I went to Dodger Stadium was with my Godson several years ago (Kotchman got hit in the head at second that game - he was never the same).  It was a zoo that day. We got ice thrown at us.  Big chunks of ice.

Oh how sweet it would be to beat King Felix and Kershaw in a span of 3 days.
