If They Held The Apocalypse And Nobody Showed Up, Would The Angels Vs. Dodgers Thing Be Any Less Lame?
Tim Kurkjian's Angels vs. Dodgers smackdown chat seems engineered to rouse as much rabble as possible, but as you know, the official position of this here blog is that the greater metropolitan Los Angeles area is plenty big enough for both the above; it's also possible that the Angels and Dodgers are both on an upswing. That, of course, isn't to say each organization has its downsides; oddly, they're becoming more alike over the course of time. Both have a tendency to hire over-the-hill veterans for too long on contracts too dear, both have problems figuring out when to properly deploy the kids when there's a vetruhn potentially blocking him, and both have made brief first-and-done postseason appearances recently (though in the Angels' defense, there's those World Series rings in 2002 and the ALCS appearance in 2005). Anyway, something for a slow news day. (The Kamenetzky's bugged me about this yesterday, so's I figured I should at least mention it in passing.)
