Apparently this was posted a few days ago but I missed it, and given that I covered episodes one and two, I figured I should continue the trend by drawing attention to episodes three and four. Your browser does not support iframes. Your browser does not support iframes. Read More »

Feed SubscriptionA.J. Ellis plays word game with Clayton Kershaw on “Between Two Palm Trees”
The debut episode of “Between Two Palm Trees” provided a GIFable moment, but this one took awkward to the next level. Your browser does not support iframes. The best thing? I didn’t know this was a series of videos, I thought it was a one-off. Read More »
A.J. Ellis Hosts “Between Two Palm Trees” With Clayton Kershaw, Is Awesome
Is the play of A.J. Ellis not enough for you to love him? Okay, how about his sense of humor then? Via Dodger Thoughts Seriously though, if you don’t vote A.J. Ellis to the All-Star Game, I hate you. If you don’t get what A.J. Ellis is doing here, I also hate you, but Google “Between Two Ferns“. Read More »
Thanks Sports Illustrated, Now The Dodgers Are Going To Lose 60 In A Row
Or that’s what you would say if you believed in jinxes and what not. Read More »
ESPN Points Out That The Red Sox Are Just A Game Behind The Yankees … Great
With a headline like that, you would expect this is for the division lead, right? No. It’s to see which team ends up in last place. I swear these two teams could both be at 40-121 going into the last game of the season and their finish would still be hyped more than the teams who were actually winning. Read More »
Comment Of The Day: Frank McCourt Is Gone, So Get Over It
That comment on Dodger Thoughts from Terry Pruett on the ownership situation basically sums up exactly what I feel about the recent controversy. I must be the only one who couldn’t care less whether the Dodgers owners reveal their whole involvement with McCourt. — Chad Moriyama (@ChadMoriyama) May 16, 2012 Far more concerned with the trading deadline, what the front ...

Hank Schulman Says Dodgers Fans Are The Worst In Baseball + Is Delusional
Hank Schulman went insane yesterday, translating a sequence of events and reactions from the Dodgers/Giants game in the most illogical way possible, basically so that they would fit his narrative. Many fans here booed when Kemp misplayed Melky ball, didn’t reach Arias RBI single.If that’s what they were booing, they’re total idiots. — Henry Schulman (@hankschulman) May 8, 2012 Honestly, ...

MLB Should Ban Home Plate Collisions … And Takeout Slides
As I watched Houston Astros catcher Jason Castro get absolutely lit up in a home plate collision with Mat Gamel of the Milwaukee Brewers, I wondered to myself why this aspect of baseball was even necessary. I’m obviously not the first person to suggest this, and I’ve read all the criticism of writers who have previously suggested such rule changes, ... Read More »
So When Will We All Stop Giving Jose Canseco Attention?
Craig Calcaterra of Hardball Talk recently checked up on Jose Canseco‘s ridiculous Twitter antics and had a bit of fun with it in an article. “Why?” That’s the only thing that ran through my head when I read the title of the article in my RSS feed. Now it’s not my intent to pick on Craig, as he’s only one ... Read More »
Don’t Simply Trust Coaches, Because A Lot Of Them Put Themselves First
Dallas Jackson of Rivals brought the public the story of two pitchers who threw 347 pitches between them … in one game. People were shocked, people were angry, and I was … well … unfortunately not all that surprised. After 501 pitches, the game finally ended. New Orleans (La.) Jesuit had bettered Metairie (La.) Archbishop Rummel in an 18-inning, pitchers’ ... Read More »
Comment Of The Day: #ChadBillingsleyFacts & Matt Kemp Sucks
Chad Billingsley gave up two runs in the bottom of the second inning, which, despite the fact that he had only given up one run in his previous two starts combined, obviously meant to fans that he was a worthless mentally weak piece of shit. I learned that I can’t leave the ball up in the zone when I was ... Read More »
Comment Of The Day: Everybody Laugh At Stupid People Irrationally Angry At Kenley Jansen On Twitter
If you are in this post and feel mad that I’m calling you stupid, then you can always correct that by not being stupid. Thanks. Come at me, bro. That’s why Jansen is no better than a middle reliever #Dodgers — Eddie Rievley (@R0yEdward) April 14, 2012 And thats why Kenley Jansen will never be a closer… — George Bissell ... Read More »
MLB.TV’s idiotic policy prevents Hawaii from watching nine teams on the West Coast
I live in Hawaii. Obviously this makes it a tad difficult to either attend games or watch local broadcasts that are over 3000 miles away. Apparently though, MLB.TV cares little about that teeny tiny issue since they prevent me from watching every single Los Angeles Dodgers game live. Yes, that’s right, apparently the entire West Coast collection of MLB teams ... Read More »
Comment Of The Day: Designate Chad Billingsley, Put Nate Eovaldi In Rotation
Concerned with Chad Billingsley‘s spring? Me too. Cutting a potential ~4.5 WAR pitcher for a rookie in Nate Eovaldi with six strikeouts and four walks? Sheer genius. Read More »
Tsuyoshi Nishioka Sucks, Is Asian, Tom Powers Makes Fun Of Him With Haiku LOLOL
Tom Powers, who apparently has a history of being an idiot, decided to make recently demoted Tsuyoshi Nishioka his punching bag recently. Of course, that would be completely fine, as Nishioka’s been a terrible player for the Minnesota Twins thus far and deserves to be criticized. However, what irked me was the direction in which Powers took the criticism. Nishioka ... Read More »
