Hi Ho, Hi Ho, the Dodgers Suck, You Know..

And so it's on. The unexpected Cardinals are facing down the overrated Dodgers. That's a good enough reason to stay awake and alert, but then there's the friggin' Mookie!

No guarantees on the awake or alert parts, but I am registered for the Mookie and I will play in the damn thing.

Holy shit. Torre is bringing in Jeff "Frickin'" Weaver with the bases loaded in the fourth. I guess he can't get demoralized and give up facing one batter. Like clockwork, he gives up an obvious extra base hit that is called foul and mysteriously is NEVER shown on replay. WTF? I mean they show every foul tip from five different angles and we don't get to see this one replayed even once?

So let me get this straight. If this is playing out just the way Joe Torre wants it to, does that mean he hoped to be up by only two runs if the Cardinal pitchers proved unable to get anyone out? If so, he should be fired. I'm just saying.
