    Yeah from what I heard about how the field was set up I was expecting a higher score too.

    well for me it was fine....we parked on sc's campus and walked over and we got to the gates just as they opened at 4:10....when we left, we crossed the line for shuttles back to dodger stadium twice.....i think the line wrapped around the coliseum :eek: but it think the shuttles helped with traffic around the stadium because it was pretty easy getting out....and i should have honked when i passed the wiltern as you were leaving....;) :)

    i thought that too....but when i was at the game i realized usc games are usually between 80 - 90 thousand so the extra 20,000 isn't that much...it was quite the spectacle....:)

    I just received an e-mail update from dodgers.com that said there will be a news conference tomorrow regarding the future of Dodger Stadium.

    Does anyone here know what this is about?

    I assume, since we just spent millions of dollars renovating the sacred grounds, we're staying in the ravine.

    But there's always a nervous, twitchy part of me that worries that Rupert Murdoch or Frank McCourt or whatever "suit" has control over our beloved stadium will tear it down and move us into the Depends Adult Undergarments Park sponsored by Slimfast
    ...or Girls Gone Wild Field
    ...or Ambien Stadium

    Last week while in LA I saw a game at Dodger stadium. Wow what a cool place to see a baseball game. We were in the upper deck and such a great view it was. Such a shame if they decide to knock it down. :(

    Oh God no! (at least not that I know of), that's just something I say whenever I see or hear him, since I know he isn't going to be around forever.

    I see how Lakers broadcasts have suffered since Chick "fell off the raft," and I just don't want Vin to go...it's sort of a proactive Godspeed.

    Not that I've heard. I have extra innings, but the Reds announcers have been doing the last few games.

    Proactive Godspeeds are a good thing. :)
