Dodgers take the second game against the W.S. Champs..once again I'll say..suck it Giants!!
Something that surprised me during an interview yesterday was that a few of the Giants and even a couple Dodgers didn't even know how intense the rivalry is between L.A. and S.F., it's as bad as the rivalry between the Yankee/Redsox and history is just as long. I guess I just figured if you're a pro ball player, you're a fan of the history of the game as well.

The Giants fan who was severely beaten at the end of the Dodgers home opener Thursday is a Santa Cruz paramedic and the father of two children.
Bryan Stow, 42, hit his head on the pavement during the attack and is in a medically induced coma, family members told the Santa Cruz Sentinel.
"He's not doing too well," brother-in-law David Collins told the paper. "He's still unconscious and they just decided to put him in a medically induced coma. They are hoping the brain swelling will go down, but it hasn't and they are talking about removing one of his frontal lobes."
.........
Rosenberg said the victim was one of three Giants fans who were attacked in the parking lot by the two unidentified men wearing Dodgers clothing. The unprovoked attack occurred about 8:30 p.m. in Parking Lot 2 when two assailants approached three victims in Giants apparel.
The two men attacked the three victims, kicking and punching them and shouting expletives about the Giants as they delivered the blows, Rosenberg said.
The incident was witnessed by several fans, he said. The assailants fled as people tried to assist the injured man, he said. Police said the incident was captured on a security camera video and witnesses have provided details about the assailants, including a distinctive tattoo.

First, Stewie Griffin of Fox's "Family Guy" uttered a funny bit about the Mets during one of last fall's episodes and it quickly spread around the Internet.
Then an unidentified SNY employee briefly played part of the clip over broadcaster Gary Cohen after the Mets' 6-2 loss to the Florida Marlins on Friday night.

Well, the Mets won their first 3 game series. That didn't happen until mid-June last year. They also went 1-8 in Miami last year. This year they are 2-1. At least it's hope.
The always interesting thing about the Mets is that have the talent and everyone knows they do. If they keep it together they can have the best lineup in the NL. I'm not saying they are going to make the payoffs, but they have the ability to.

^ Ive never doubted the Mets talent. Its the mis-management of the team that racks up the losses IMO.

They can easily put out a better lineup than Philly, especially with Utley hurt.
Johan (if strong) can beat any pitcher on any day. I think when Pelfrey is on he can compete with Hamels too. I'll take Dickey or Neise over Blanton. They do kick our ass in the #2 spot though, we don't have an answer for Cliff Lee.
