Dodgers will...

[nobrakes00]

beat the Angels in the World Series! My prediction. :thumbs:

[grampadirt]

Not

Angels FTW :)

[Zembonez]

I don't think the Dodgers will be IN the world series unless they buy tickets in the stands.

I reserve all predictions until I find out who is in the playoffs, and who plays who in what round.

Hey Gramps,

I DO give the Halos a lot of credit; they have endured so much this year, especially with the death of Aidenhart at the beginning of the season. Mike Sciosia is a great manager! However, I bleed blue and just love the Dodgers! My parents have Angels season tix so should the boys in blue reach the series against the Angels, I could finlly witness a WS game in person. Should be an interesting race though; lotta' teams making a push.

Hi Jeff,I've been an Angel fan for years and always watch as many games on TV as I can.I've even made the drive to Angel Stadium to see a game or two.If Dodger stadium wasn't such a pain in the ass to get in and out of I might go to a few more.We'll see who's still standing at the end,let's root for both L.A. teams and hope they can take care of the East of The Rockies emenies :thumbs:

BTW,do you know you were one of the winners of the monthly prize drawing for July? I don't remember you claiming your prize....check the thread

As an OC native, I grew up watching both teams, but the Dodgers were much more of a power-horse in the late 70's and throughout the 80's, and plus my dad's company had season tickets to the Dodgers, so we went to a lot more LA games. I was at Fernando's no-hitter in '91! Even though the Dodgers are my team, overall I'm just a "baseball" fan, and I admire many teams and individual players. Only organization I can't stand is ... ugh, I can't say it 'cause I don't want to hurt Dana's feelings.

Unlike my brother, who absolutely hates the Angels, I have a tremendous amount of respect for their team. They are a classy organization, and again, I like Mike Sciosa (ahem... ex-Dodger). Chone Figgins is amazing; Tori Hunter is solid; and what a great pick-up in Bobby Abreu - they got him fairly cheap too. He was making $12 Mil/yr in NY I believe; Angels picked him up for $5 Mil. Oh yeah, that Kendry Morales kid sure filled the shoes of Texeira nicely!!

Hehe... yeah, I was away from the site for a few months and just recently checked back in. Had a message from Jim stating that I had won. I'm so bummed, I never win anything, and the one contest I do win, I forget to claim my prize. Doh! My fault though. :facepalm:

All you say is true,especially concerning Texeira.He went for the $,just like K Rod.Assholes :fume:
I agree with some,whatever the market will bare...loyalty doesn't mean shit anymore.I love watching Chone play,it just looks like he's having a ton of fun out there,like a little kid with a new toy :)

So true! This generation of baseball is all about the money and the agents' greed in obtaining long-term contracts for their clients. It makes me sick that Jason Schmidt will have collected nearly $47 Mil by season's end and was absolutely useless! I'm sure Angels' fans feel the same way about Gary Mathews Jr.

Hehe... this is why I like golf; you don't make the cut, you don't win sh*t! You're paid on how you perform!!
