Dear Dodgers and Your Fans...

Dear Dodgers and Your Fans,

Wow. Here it is almost the middle of September and you look to have a real shot at winning the NL West. I expected you to have folded and crumbled at this point in time, but it appears the no-brainer pick-up of Manny Ramirez has broken that curse. We can ignore the fact that your 75-71 record would be good enough for fifth place in the NL Central - we still have to give you credit. It wasn't our intention to make your lives easier by sweeping Arizona - but we're not going to roll over just to screw you guys. Arizona is looking pretty weak right now and it is yours for the taking. There was a time when it would cause me genuine pain to see the Dodgers succeed, but frankly, I am enjoying the Giants success as of late that it doesn't bother me how well you do. If Tim Lincecum can win the Cy Young, you can go and win the World Series for all I care. If its possible for us to put a dent in your plans later this month, than I would be happy to do so. Let the rivalry continue, and I hoped we sent a message to you during this Arizona series that we are not a team to sleep on.

See you soon...

Still Orange and Black
