And before anyone corrects us I assumed that Mofo meant to say "in the same season"

You have to be a major piece of shit to play for the Dodgers. Maybe he can suck Vin Scully’s vastly overrated dick in hell

63 is not very old

RIP Fernando. He died Tuesday at 63 after battling liver cancer. I was fortunate to be working in LA in 1981, Valenzuela's rookie year. A 20-year old Mexican kid enters the Dodgers starting rotation and immediately becomes a hit with shutout after shutout. The town went wild and that was Fernandomania. He won game 3 of the WS vs the Yankees, was named Rookie of the Year, and won the Cy Young Award. I managed to attend most of his games.

Fernando's record in 1981: 13-7, 2.48 ERA, 8 SHO, 180K, 61BB, 11HR

What do you have against the Dodgers.

What do you have against the Dodgers.

Everything.

What do you have against the Dodgers.

What do you not have against them?

 

[jvett77]

Everything.

For example.

For example.

He's a Giants fan, that's all you need. It's a rivalry that goes back a long way. It's like asking why do Red Sox fans hate the Yankees, or why do Auburn fans hate Bama.

 

[williewilliejuan]

For example.

They exist

 

[jvett77]

What do you not have against them?

Explain. I don't have feelings about any MLB team one way or another, except the phucking Philles for not getting to the WS this year.

 

[jvett77]

They exist

Why? They played .600 ball this year. You're mad at their success, or you're pissed they left NY over 60 years ago.

I think you may be retarded. Have you been tested?

I don’t have a neck tattoo, therefore I hate the Dodgers. Pretty simple stuff

Explain or I'll conclude you're retarded.

How many Dodgers have tatoos?
