Just hours before Opening Day, here are a few thoughts for today’s important game.
dodger_stadium_opening_day_2009_j86g.jpgWe have just come off a VERY frustrating opening road trip….but today things start anew. This is OUR Opening Day…Dodger Stadium, the grand lady of the National League, welcomes back her faithful fans for yet another year. OUR year. Thats right..OUR year, Three times the charm…..
We weren’t suppose to beat the National league favorite Cubs in 2008, but did we?  You bet we did !  3 straight!
anti-cubs-hat.JPGWe weren’t suppose to beat the powerful Cardinal in 2009, the same cardinals that have had our number for 4 years going…. but did we?  You bet we did!  3 straight!

On PAPER, the Phillies have a better team….but PAPER doesn’t play the game. Heart does…and this team has heart ! And an amazing core of young players that CAN win, and WANT to show the best fan’s in baseball, that they ARE good enough to beat the best.

We CAN and WILL make the playoffs….. and we WILL beat the Phillies to make it to the World Series. And in SPITE of the all the McCourt craziness…..we WILL be World Series Champs!…

So on this day, April 13, 2010, The Dodgers hand the ball to young Clayton Kershaw.The kid will NOT disappoint…..And we, the Dodger faithful, will be there to cheer him on.

Yup…That’s what a new year brings…….and what Opening Day bring…..

My favorite joke about The Hated Ones

On the first day of school a first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a Giants fan. She asks her class to raise their hands if they are too. Wanting to impress the teacher, everyone in the class raises their hand except one little boy. The teacher looks at the boy with surprise and says “Bobby, why didn’t you raise your hand?”

“Because I’m NOT a Giants fan,” he replied.

The teacher, still shocked, asked “Well, if you’re not a Giants fan then who are you a fan of?”

“I’m a DODGER fan and proud of it,” Bobby replied.

The teacher could not believe her ears.

“Bobby, why are you a DODGERS fan?”

“Cuz my mom and dad are both DODGERS fans, so I’m a DODGERS fan too!”

“Well,” said the teacher in an annoyed tone, “that is no reason for you to be a DODGERS fan. You don’t have to be just like your parents all the time. What if your mom was an idiot and your dad was a moron, what would you be then?”

“Then,” Bobby smiled, “I’d be a Giants fan.”

 

Big homestand for the Blue starting tonight. It’s pay back time against the Cards ! Come on guys, there is NO Cardinal Curse !

Go Blue!
