I think people who don't play sports don't realize how important it is to be able to hold a lead late in games. It really is not just 1 game. When teams get embarrassed by blowing saves, they can rebound against another team, but it's tough to rebound against the team that came back on you. The team usually thinks they can do this again, and if they think that, then they probably will. This is why you can't ignore Broxton . You can't keep him on your staff. A good example is Frisco. They know he is a weak btch, and they are on him like white on rice. They have raped him, and they know he is scared they will do it again. That owner,his wife, the G.M....None of them understand how much this game is about fear, intimidation, respect, and lack of respect. They don't understand that if you show weakness, then you must cut that weakness out like a cancer. They don't get that. They tolerate weak people on their club, and when other clubs see that tolerance of weakness, it's like blood to a beast. When they keep Broxton on the team it shows other teams that the Dodgers are weak, and they are right. They don't understand the perception of weakness, and it's impact on other teams.There is no place for mercy in pro sports. Maybe he can pitch for another team. That's the best thing for all involved. Those 7 blown saves are all reasons why the team that came back on him thinks they can beat the Dodgers. If he isn't around anymore, then you lessen your disadvantage when you face them. He has to go. He is weakness. Hit him with a wrench, and throw him overboard, or the ones who want him for dinner will take you with him. He can pitch. The talent is there, but he is not a competitor on the inside. Please leave, and don't come back to the place you were weak at. In pro sports, an individual this weak inside is about as valuable as a Chicken Female part.

I just thought of something.

I think Bush has ape brains.



It would just be your luck the ape you got in trade would be the one with Bush Brains------don't make that deal.

I think Broxton should date that cow on ESPN that puts twice the correct amount of make-up on her cheeks. It's like she is painting with it. Shelly Smith, right? LOL...Damn, that gal is determined to keep plastering that stuff on more n' more.

^^This is the problem. FKN fool can't figure out the guy has been choking for over 2 years now. It's not particularly about his position of closer. I don't think he is any more scared now than he would be in the 7th or 8th inning. He is simply a born choker. You can't just ignore this. As you can see, they are ignoring it. They will continue to take the punishment for their stupidity. Organization coddles players who should be gotten rid of. He can't stop choking. He would if he could. He can't. Blown 7saves , and surely will get to 10 or more this year.

BTW, since you bring Kent's name up, notice how he couldn't get a hit with men in scoring position, but did it when nobody was on. As far as a difference maker goes, he is incredibly overrated. In my opinion , he will be the 2nd -4TH worst player to ever go into the HOF( PEREZ #1.)

I get the feeling the Dodgers really suck.

There are some that really suck as competitors. There is no lack of talent. When you have a choker in an important position it hurts your teams appearance from other teams perspective. They see Broxton giving it up, and see the Dodgers tolerate that. Other teams see that as weakness(as merciful.) You can't be seen as having any mercy. Each time a player goes to face a pitcher, it's war. If they know they can beat you later in the game, then they aren't so scared if you hit them early in the game. You've made the opposing pitcher just a bit more at ease. For instance, during those World Series winning years for the Yanks, opposing pitchers surely feared getting hit early, because God forbide you try to come back late on Rivera. So, what happens is Meyers sees that woman Broxton give it up on Sunday night, and goes to the mound Monday Night knowing if he gives up a few runs, then he still may be o.k., because the Dodgers are weak closing his boys out right now. Torre is too butt ignorant to understand the intimidation factor involved here. That's a tea drinka(a fkn tea drinka.) That's one of the reasons he keeps get'n a-s-s kicked early in the playoffs. Other teams pitchers think the Yank hitters are scared that they may not hit, and they work that fear for all it's worth. He doesn't understand this part of the game. That's why this a-s-s gun stick with this woman (Broxton.)

I've never seen anybody stay as bad at his craft as this Charlie Steiner. I guess his vision is total s-h-i-t, cuz to him every flyball is "hit deep." He(and the guy who Fox demoted due to something he said to Piniella) does road games east of the Rockies, cuz Vin Scully doesn't want to do it. If Scully kicks it, our we gunna get this guy all the time? Can't be. He is really bad. He might beat Bryant Gumbel. That's it.

"...And Kent with a shot to deep right center field!!!!!-CHARLIE STEINER

Caught in front of warning track.

Boy...the Dodgers do suck.





Don't forget ...you could have Wedgie.

I'm leaving.

Yeah, they are struggling with the Nationals. When teams are going bad, even the bad teams try harder, because they feel they have a shot. You would think they are GUNNA GIVE each National a 2 pound gold chain if they win. Lastings Milledge is all out. Every ounce of his being is focused on beating the struggling Dodgers. Maybe we should get Atka, and send Joe to retire in FLOR-E-DA.
