Recently (as in the day before yesterday) an aspiring medical professional friend of mine pronounced me a drug user.Apparently "it's the only way (he) can explain why an intelligent motivated woman would still like the Dodgers".
He is his own brand of bonkers that I won't get into right now but it does include a few Angels jerseys and a dislike of the Lakers... *harumph*
Its about ROOTS man!
Its about where you come from!!
Its about history!
Its about hot dogs larger than life and that essential childhood knowledge that there was a perfect lawn in a perfect shade of green somewhere for a very specific purpose.
Its about singing with my dad at the stadium with our matching Dodger blue caps.
Its about watching my Great-Grandmother sit in front of her tubed, knobbed TV with her Brooklyn Dodgers jersey (that's right. Our family devotion goes back to the beginning) on yelling at Tommy to take a lap or two when he got heated.
Its about being inspired to be excellent the Hershiser way.
No drugs necessary for this high - none whatsoever.
Play on Manny. Play on.

Boo to broken links!
LET'S GO DODGERS! I'm not on drugs either, just a loyal fan... not one of those mamsy-pamsy fairweather fans who floats from one successful team to another. I've been waiting for us to play a couple games in October for a long time!
