The thing that ices me is the way that they McC's are trying to 'sell' the club.

They recently had some kind of 'Taco/Burrito' meet and greet with one of the players-I was so effing turned off about it, I didn't post.

I just skimmed thru the article so I may be wrong on some facts.

The event was held during a homestand and one of the players was to host a some kind of all-you-can-eat spread. The tix were either 35/45 dollars- I believe that the tix to that was in addition towhatever the person paid to see the game. (The event was held after a game.) If I want to eat burritos or tacos with the Dodgers, I'll go to Taco Bell and watch the game on TV.

The McC's recently 'bought' the rights to the El Lay Marathon and moved it to Memorial Day weekend.

The runners complained that the weather would be too warm, the attendance was way down because people were out doing other stuff on the 'holiday' weekend and the McC's were no where to be seen.

I kinda dread the team making any kind of run for the pennant and WS.

It only means that stupid promotions and higher tix prices are ahead.
