Yeah for Game 3 of the NLDS. I had a Cubs license plate frame and a car flag. My window broke and wouldnt roll down, so I had to leave the flag up. We came back after the game and some asshole had snapped it off. And last year, I drove my dads truck to a game, and he had a stool he leaves in the bed of the truck. It had been there for years, no problem. Well it was stolen. I mean both situations could have been prevented, <b>but who the fuck takes a stool?
</b>
So those incidents, among others reasons, have caused me to boycott the Dodgers. I buy tickets off Stubhub so I don't fuel McCourt's fire, I refuse to buy concessions, and starting this year I'm planning on not parking in the ravine.

There was a stabbing of a Giants fan a few years ago in a similar situation. But yeah it's been like this for a while.

I just took a stool a few minutes ago. Thai food last night on top of about 20-21 beers. Not pretty.

Hilarious. Hawk and Stone essentially bitching because the umps got a call right, but since the ump originally got it wrong (in the Sox favor), that call should stand. If there are bigger babies announcing in baseball right now, I don't want to hear them.

Stone at least backtracked on that a bit and said the umps got the call right eventually, but Hawk would have nothing of it. It was awesome.

There argument was great. "He was probably out, but why is the 2nd base ump calling it?". You just know if the situation was reversed they'd be falling over themselves saying how it doesn't matter who call it, as long as they get the answer right.

And game over. This has been a great sports day for me, aside from the Cashner injury.

I hope they stew in it for a few more days.

Wow....four games into the season and those two dipshits are already pulling that?

The Suntimes broke the news and the Score ran with it about 1 hr ago as well. What's with all these freak appendectomies this season?

They are fun to listen to when the sox are losing or blowing a lead. They are insufferable when the Sox are winning.

I heard he was sleeping with Matt Holliday. They must not have used protection.
