Yankee Fans infested Dodger Stadium. That was a playoff atmosphere that night. We all know it, but only a few will admit it. He blew that game because it was intense. He's a weak person. I'll go to the post with Valverde. I doubt he had the run support that Broxton has pssd away. I certainly do know what's gunna happen if we rely on Brox to close in the post. You don't have to be brilliant to figure that out. Come on, would you really be sticking up for this choking cow if it wasn't me who despises him? We are gunna bet on this. If the Dodgers make it to the post(big if,) then we'll vote on this fatboy's performance in the post. If you really believe this stuff, back it up. I would of won this bet the last 2 years, but you've again tried to couch together some angle. I recognize that scared bitch I saw on Sunday Night. She ain't changed her insides.

Cannon's blog posting is spot on!!!

We all know she chokes under pressure. She choked away the NLCS on 72 hours rest last year. Dodgers won both their Divisional series 3 games to nil. That gave her plenty of rest between series. In 2008, she had 8 days off before pitching 14 pitches in game 3 of the NLCS. The next night, she blew game 4. She is a choker. This is not fatigue. I would love to blame it on that, but I know this bitch will choke big games away regardless of whether she's been pitching a little, or a lot. The reason I don't complain about these other pitchers is because they don't have her ability. I know these are choke jobs. She has the talent to be almost as successful as Rivera, but she pisses it away, and she's an embarassment to her maker. She's an embarassment to the city. If you want to make the case for fatigue as the cause, then you have to be consistent, and explain why she choked on 72 hours rest in last years NLCS. She had 5 days off between series. We know exactly what she's capable of, and that's why were so upset at the bitch. Either way, they needed better relievers the last 2 years, and haven't addressed their sht (at all.) That really is the most important thing. This fkn Leprechaun owner spends way too much time thinking about sht that doesn't help them get a ring.

That was 1 time, and a lil blooper. It's one of the most admired at bats in World Series History. That batter's number is the 1st to be retired by the D'BACKS. Brox has been destroyed 2X by Philly in the post. Both times, it was on a horrible mistake that any High School player could of done damage with. He was absolutely ass kicked back into the dugout. It doesn't fit your theory. So, you need to bring others' failures in to try to lessen his fully-rested chokin'. If it was fatigue, I'd be the 1st to use that excuse. Don't you think I'd like to think they have some shot to close games in any future NLCS / WORLD SERIES efforts? They don't. They have no shot. They're in fkn denial. I know this pig's ways. She gets scared. Doesn't deal with it properly, and gets owned. She has plenty of talent, and can easily blow these people away. She's a mental failure of monumental proportions. For years to come, she will be the topic of many a Sports Psychology Book Chapters. You've been wrong about her in the post for the last 2 years, and may get a chance for a hat trick. I admit that her talent makes it easy to mistakenly look for excuses (Dodger brain thrust has gotten owned while making the same mistake,) but she's simply a scared bitch. It's not a difficult situation to figure out, it's simply a conclusion that people don't like. I don't like it. It's just the way it is with her. They would need like 5 of Ron Artest's Shrinks to even have a shot at changing her. For years now, the late action on her pitches has been directly proportional to how scared she is (not how fatigued she is, or isn't.) This is so obvious to people that watch her day in /day out. We know what she can do. She's not doing it. She's scared.

On a different note.

I'm curious on your thoughts of Armando Benetiz before he turn 30.
