  1. “@NBCLA: singer Carly Rae Jepson cancels performance at Boy Scouts Jamboree over gay rights http://t.co/y9G1XaNpM9” Good for her!

  2. Last 3 times I've driven by gas station on the corner (diff days), a fire truck has been there. Should I be worried? WTH, Mobil?

  3. It's sad, you don't see big rig trailers painted up like The Snowman's anymore. #BanditWhatsYour20

  4. “@JeffFletcherOCR: #Angels released RHP Hiroyuki Kobayashi. Scioscia said his velocity was not what was expected.” Well THAT didn't last

  5. I like Jonathan Quick more when he plays well. #Kings

  6. Oh, THAT'S why the #Angels signed Hamilton. Fantastic AB and a towering HR

  7. “@mlbtraderumors: Yankees, Indians Not In On Lohse http://t.co/m17yB9XBf3 #mlb#AngeIs should sign him!!

  8. I don't remember ever actively rooting against the Ducks in any other situation...but I see Ducks fans do it to the Kings a lot. WTH?

  9. Been watching since it started,so I feel compelled to see it through- but if it weren't for Kevin Bacon I'd be so done with "The Following"

  10. I'm digging Howie Kendrick's Abe Lincoln beard. #Angels

  11. “@mlbtraderumors: Manny Ramirez To Sign With Taiwanese Team http://t.co/OZiIgHYLe2 #mlb” Really Manny? This is just sad.

  12. Talking about how Trumbo at 3B "just didn't pan out". Yep, he had a month of ST and about 10 2012 games to try it...they exhausted that idea

  13. 2000 had 1. Darin Erstad 2. Adam Kennedy 3. Mo Vaughn 4. Tim Salmon 5. Garret Anderson 6. Troy Glaus 7. Scott Spiezio 8. Bengie Molina 9. Benji Gil That's the year Erstad hit .355, Kennedy drove in over 70 runs, and... oh yeah, Vaughn, Salmon, Anderson, and Glaus were the first time any team had 4 players hit 30+ homers (Glaus led the league with 47). If that team had ANY pitching at all (and-- spoiler alert-- it didn't), they could have won the West and been a serious WS contender. Unfortunately, while that team scored a whopping 864 runs, they gave up 869. So that awesome lineup managed 82 wins.
  14. If the GM and the Manager aren't on the same page about everything, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Healthy conflict can lead to better overall decisions... the key is healthy conflict. As long as Scioscia and DiPoto are able to discuss their differences and come up with solutions that are best for the team, it's actually good they don't always see eye-to-eye. On the other hand, if they instead choose to quietly seethe over things they don't agree about, the result could be negative. Personally, I'm confident that they're both professionals and will use healthy conflict to the organization's benefit.
