    Chill out, dude. You have WAY too much anger about a group of people you don't even know. Your generalizations, irrational hatred, and borderline-racism only makes me lose a shitload of respect for you.

    Keep in mind that it's only a game, but your reputation and words will follow you far beyond this baseball season.

    Good luck tonight...may the best team win.

    I could really care less. When one of my buddies gets treated like that - fuck that. Don't really care what my reputation will be. If some asshole in Philly speaks for all Philly fans, then same goes here.

    No good luck tonight. Go Phils.

Keep in mind I know about the group out in the outfield, The Cholos(or whatever you call them). Now THAT is fucking trash. How do these animals even get tickets? you've got these pieces of shit taking up all the room that's not being taken up by people with botox and facelifts. Fuck that.

    All that hate made me laugh. :D

    btw - "jencos"? :confused:

    That's the very definition of irrational behavior.

    If I started hating entire groups because at some time or another a "buddy" of mine got mistreated by one or more members of that group, then at this point in my life I'd hate blacks, Asians, Latinos, whites, drunks, women, teenagers, football players, and the list goes on.

    Then I'd be a hateful bastard filled with nothing but animosity and spite for others, and I wouldn't be a very good person.

    It reminds me of the way people today and in the past have used isolated, individual examples to justify segregation, homophobia, slavery, etc.

    It's sad, really.

    Like I said in the section of my post that you cut out, I was okay with taking out Lowe not primarily because of a potential game 7, but because he was going on 3-days rest. I don't know Derek personally, but I would assume that 75 pitches on 3-days rest is a much bigger strain than 75 pitches on four or five days of rest. That being said, I understand why he was taken out when he was...and the game 7 aspect of it was just an added bonus, more than anything else.

    I don't think they were looking to the next inning or the next game, but I do believe that they took Lowe out with the feeling that it was a smart move since they had one of the best bullpens in the league all year long. Obviously it didn't work out, but you have to stick with what got you there, and the bullpen had been lights out most of the year (and most of the series) up to that point.

    It still makes no sense to even mention Game 7 in regards to saving someone for that game with the situation we are in right now.

    The 3 days rest argument doesn't work either because he had really settled down in the couple of innings before he was taken out. It is stupid to pitch a guy on 3 days rest if you aren't going to treat it like a regular start. If the guy is rolling leave him in (just ask Milwaukee and CC at the end of the season).

    Lowe's pitching down the stretch is one of the things that got us there. Kershaw coming in from the bullpen (in what I think was his first post-season appearance, I could be wrong there) is not what got us there.

    I'm counting on a miracle!~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wow, I came in here expecting some classy condolences from Philly fans, and instead see a bunch of rubbing it in.

    Since they won't, I'll do it. Nice season, Phillies. The World Series will be tough.

    One bright spot for the Dodgers -- they finally won a series. There is next year.

    See it now. Thanks. But they need to fill up the gaps. Lots of decisions to make in teh off season. Good luck in the series... Bottom line, your team got the big hits and the Dodgers let their opportunities go like an inexperienced playoff team... It's a cruel sport.

    I was at the game, but that wasn't me. I was the guy in the Dodgers jersey by the left field foul pole drowning his sorrow in beer and an ice cream sandwich.

    I didn't watch much of the game last night because of the debate but there wasn't much to watch. Every time I flipped it to the game it was either Phils up with men on or Dodgers up with two outs and no one on. I just found out how the Dodgers got the one run: Manny's solo shot. How appropriate. He was the only one who did anything. Dodgers need to resign him.

    Thank you, Dodgers! You did everything I was looking for.... beat those annoying Cubs, then took yourselves out of it and created a little misery for FOX as a bonus. :D

    You Dodger fans are a cool bunch.... I "invaded" your thread as a Giants' fan; we gave each other a bunch of shit; I became a Dodger fan for a week and, all in all, it's been fun. :p

    When does the OFFICIAL 2009 LOS ANGELES DODGERS THREAD kick off? :D I can't decide whether to infiltrate that thread or start my own Giants thread. Seeing as how it's just me and ucsbledbetter in the G's corner, I guess I'll see you in the spring :p. Pitchers and catchers report in about 4 months :D.

    P.S. Phillies have the better team....you all have the better thread.

    Manny is great to have for you guys but how about adding some more starting pitching may be more helpful

    Especially with Lowe being a free agent...Manny asking for $20mil a year

    Money spent on pitching might be wiser
