This whole Dodger vs. Angel thing…
What a way to have a lunch. So at lunch, I don my Angel cap and go out for a nice feast of Hot Wings and Fries at this place. Low and behold, 2 guys wear Dodger blue. I walk in and we make eye contact. I feel like Clint Eastwood walking into a saloon except I’m mexican and overweight. I place my order and I can feel the eyes of Dodger fans staring at me. Thankfully, the place had a tv with ESPN running and showed a highlight of last night’s Dodger game when they lost to the Rockies. So I sit down just watching tv and I hear one of the guys say “Well at least we’re not gay like the Angels” and the other guy starts laughing. I turn around and say “Um…we may be ‘gay’ but I think we just swept the Mariners and are first place in our division.” and the riot ensued. Fans of my awesome blog, why do people insist to talk bad about another team that is clearly doing better than the other? I just don’t get it. This whole Angels are better then Dodgers rivaly thing is pretty heated. One of the best rivalries in sports history. Each fan base is crazy. Both fans would fight. I think we should have a Battle Royal and just go to town on each other. That would be great. Instead of a 7th inning stretch, why not punch a Dodger fan or vice versa. I’m not advocating violence but…actually I guess I am. Don’t really do it though. Especially at Dodger stadium at Free Shank Give Away night. They’ll cut you up. In two weeks from now we’ll be seeing another Freeway Series. I’ll be there, hopefully, and supporting my team and I won’t back down. We’re obviously the better team and I’m tired of Dodger fans heckling us for no reason. So in two weeks, us Angel Fans will be happy to win another series. Especially in their tuff…
Before I go, here are some things Dodger fans typically say to an Angel Fan
“Los Dojers are more better than the Angels”–Quick response to fan (You speak as well as the Dodgers hit)
“Hey homie, the Angels don’t even play in LA so change the name!”–Rebuttle (Um..maybe the city of Los Angeles was tired of having a losing team as their representative)
“You’re an Angel fan? I’m gonna kick your a**”–This time just run. Some Dodger fans are nuts. Dodger Stadium’s give aways consists of “Free magizine clip to your gun” night, “Free Shank Night”, “Free get out of jail free card night” and “Tommy Lasorda Bobblehead Night” Personally I’d take the Tommy Lasorda bobblehead. Great guy and amazing Manager.

Too funny!
I live with my nephew who is a Dodger fan; I am one of those rare Angel fans that has been one since the age of about 5 or 6. I am now 39.
Luckily my nephew is not your typical Dodger fan (aka your typical Raider knuckle head). He is a fan of the sport first and the logo second.
Look at it this way. If you have been beat up socially, economically and athletically (referring to the Dodgers on this one), you have to resort to gang like tactics to feel better about your status in life. the great thing about the Dodgers is that the placed their stadium in Chavez’s Ravine to contain and isolate their inmates, errr, their fans.
Wow. Very mature, Sir. And yes, I do mean that sarcastically =) .The “fans” you speak of are not fans at all. And as for your reference to the “giveaways”, please grow up and stop acting the way you claim “dodger fans” are acting.
HAHAHA! oh man, that is way too funny, especially the “Los Dojers” quote; i kind of feel the same way here, many of the Dodger fans aren’t really fans, they just love that LA logo and who can blame them? It looks cool. I am also an Angel fan, but the thing that makes it hard for me is that only my father and I are Angels; 99.9% of the rest of my family are Dodgers.
PS. For the record, the Dodgers are my favorite second team because in a way, they do represent the Brown (Mexicans), but as long as the Angels are playing I’m rolling with them.
I like the Angels better, but it’s probably because I hate the dodgers!!!
