Full Swing

I haven't been keeping up on my baseball as much as I should, especially considering all of you , and the rest of the Dodger fandom are counting on me to supply you with anything and everything necessary with regards to Dodger knowledge/trivia/statistical analysis. Hopefully you have not all given up on baseball since the recent 3 week DBB hiatus. Between the NBA playoffs, an upturn in the work arena, and a general busyness that has fallen upon me in recent weeks the DBB and Dodger games in general have only been enojoyed in passing and with erratic regularity.

With all that said I am going to talk about what I know, and right now it is not a whole lot about baseball, except that the Dodgers without ManRam and with their seemingly no name starting rotation are still gaming! Let's take a look at the winning pitchers in some of the recent games, the last 14 W's to be precise: Milton, Wolf, Kershaw, Milton, Ohman, Broxton, Leach, Billingsley, Troncoso, Kershaw, Weaver, Broxton, Wolf, Stults, in that order working backwards.... ummm minus, Bills these are all washed up has beens, never were-beens, or not there yet beens (in the case of Kershaw). This seems rather phenominal to me, since any human with an IQ equal to or greater than an 8 year old should realize that the loss of your best offensive player and the reliance upon unproven pitchers and proven pitchers (proven to not be that good) in the case of Wolf and Weaver, should lead to all things unbearable, like watching the Rockies, Nationals, or Royals of old.

The whole freakin' staff has been solid for the most part, and somehow, Juan D'Vaughn Pierre HAS substituted as well as just about anyone could for ManRam... INCREDIBLE! Never thought I would see the day. Casey Blake is hitting right at the .300 mark, Raffi is by far the worst offender that gets regular at bats. This is borderline mind boggling to me. Rather than watching this all take place, I have been spending my time watching the most pathetic professional sport in history... the NBA, or as I prefer to say the National BasketballGamesDecidedAndRuinedByReferees Association. Maybe I can not watch the Dodgers into a World Series victory, time will tell.

Does anyone else hate the NBA right now? I'm a big time Laker fan and I can't even stand to watch. I always hated Reggie Miller for starting the "I'm gonna shoot and then kick the defender while I am in the air, but fall down so it will be a foul on him" flop. Same goes for Vlade. Now all these idiots do is flop, the NBA turned into Mexican league soccer. I want dudes getting McHaled and Isaiah Thomased and crushed down low for pulling stupid stunts. Remember when Chuck and Shaq threw punches at each other? Nothing even happened, now ANdrew Bynum gets a flagrant for blocking the ball with two hands and catching a little forearm. How could anyone watch this? The whole NBA is filled with guys that should be in prison, or probably were in prison at some point. The whole Nuggets team looks like the C Block at San Quentin and the more head/arm/leg bands and jacked up 3 pt attempts the more "baller" you are... &*$% THAT!!! To top it all off, the playoffs take 7 months to complete now I think.

So, what have we learned... absolutely nothing about the Dodgers, except that they defy all reason. The NBA is like way super homo lame. And Jeopardy has been the only thing on TV worth watching lately. I think I am going to go on the show, I have been owning lately... just like the Dodgers have defied all logic, I, the guy who has been too busy to read the paper, let alone anything filled with pertinent knowledge and insight into the world has been ripping Jeopardy apart. My golf game goes from high 70's to low 90's every other round, I hate the NBA now, I would rather watch a Canadian gameshow host than sports, and I swear the other day I saw the sun rise in the West.

I don't know what the hell is going on with the world. Peace out, girl scouts.
