Game coming up Friday…………not many people happy with this on Padres North site, but I love the fact that the Dodgers and Shohei still alive representing our SoCal “Values”,  💯

What values? Arrogance, Billions spending, cocky shit talking fan base, drunken gang members, rip-off beer prices, horrid parking traffic. That’s all Doyer values, None of that represents the Angels. Sorry if I’m not an Angels fan who likes to ride the blue buss too.

What “values” are you referring to? I’m very curious and mean no offense. Just wondering what So Cal values are?

It’s only been 5467 days since the Angels won a playoff game.

The dodgers should bring out Dusty Baker to give the game ball to the dodgers pitcher.

Did all your teams win today. Mets over Phillies for the series, Detroit wins to stay in the driver’s seat, Yanks going again against the Royals and the Dodgers and Padres have a legal game going with Dodgers using 5 different pitchers in 5 complete innings.

In today’s world, many believe any narrative that is fed to them. The crazier and more conspiratorial, the more the feeble minded lap it up.

The late Stanley Kubrick left plenty of notes on how to control the weather and also rig baseball games

Idk, given we as Angels fans take so much pride in making sure Bonds never won a ring, it almost seems natural to root against Tatis Jr. ever finding World Series success.

I didn’t care if bonds won a ring, I just didn’t want him to in 2002

How? What’s the comparison? Bonds was rude to his teammates, the media and fans. I don’t get the Tatis hate?

We’ve talked so much shit about Tatis on this forum the last few years i’m honestly shocked anyone is rooting for him. Or Machado.

Not rooting for Tatis. Rooting against the Dodgers. I mean they’re harboring a gambler and it’s not Kenny Rogers.

I guess I just don’t see the logic in rooting against a likable Dodgers team that has Shohei, for a team that employs both Tatis and Machado.

Padres spend just like the Dodgers too so the underdog scrappy team argument doesn’t apply here.

We’re just bitter #2 team fans in this city. Don’t worry about it. You can cheer for whomever you want and so can we. We all love the Angels and that’s all that matters. And oh yeah – Arte sucks.

I harbor no ill will against the guy, but Shohei has seemed to get a permanent case of Dodger-itis, where they expect to be entitled to everything good and no one else. That cursing at the ump after that 3B blunder, where his own 3B coach had the STOP sign up, but obv he didn’t see or look at, because why would he?! Shohei is the fastest guy alive according to Shohei. But sure, let’s curse at the ump who caused him to be thrown out at home.

And as for the “how”

They’re both PED users. Widely accepted with Bonds, and actually tested positive with Tatis.

Nobody was booing Bonds over Peds in 2002… Glaus got busted later, I think Donnelly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Salmon was on it too based on how large he got. All the Giants were juicing. That wasn’t a narrative during the WS. Very hindsight analysis. I have no problem with Tatis and Machado. They play hard and proud. They have to gas up SD. The Dodgers are a billion dollar roster who don’t give a shit about their community , environmental impact and have whiny manager and very shady owners.

? Instead root for Ohtani and the Dodgers cause Tatis? No thanks, we have no beef with Padres, plus the fact that city had never won any sports championship ever.

At the all star break the Mets were a terrible team.

Can no longer ignore the obvious….Mets are the team of destiny.

Even Shohei agrees.
