Ethier and Kemp emerged, Manny turned out to be pregnant, and the McCourts got a divorce. I traveled across the world in search of some kind of sanity. Alas.....nowhere to be found.
Since the Dodgers are in divorce hell and taking a look from broken down players who were never good when they were not injured, '88 Dodgers Cresting A Hill has become "The Masoli Times." Why you ask? Is it because the Dodgers suck? No. Look they can replace Randy Wolf rather easily and then make upgrades at midseason when the Dodgers are either sold or solely the property of one insane millionaire or another.
No the real reason for the name change is the emergence of the Oregon Ducks as the Best Team in the Pac-10, the best conference. Last years Ducks went 9-3 and upset an overrated Oklahoma State team and their passionate affair with firearms. It was great, truly great.
But much like the original Star Wars, better things would come in the sequel. It wouldn't be easy: one of our heroes would be frozen in carbonite for justly punching some dumbass from Idaho. We would face the unstoppable force of Toby Gerhart. But along the way we would expose "#6" Cal, start beating the shit out of USC before it was cool, snap the nations longest winning streak, and beat an Oregon State team which has earned my respect.....as well as additional hatred.
Oh the Dodgers will still be a big part of the future of this site.....if there is a future. I don't if you've noticed my non-existent audience that I haven't posted in oh 8 months. I'm just saying that this:
Is equal to this:
At least in my mind.
