J's Dodger Tweets - October Edition

Ok, I'm back. I've been taking a slight break after the Dodger elimination. Once the World Series ends, I plan on handing out some Dodger Awards, and then we'll glide smoothly into the offseason. Until then though, as has been the newly formed tradition, we'll take a look back at some of what I consider my best-est Tweets from the last month or so.

I'm not going to lie to you, much of the month was filled with emotional reaction Tweets to what was happening in the playoffs, or just general complaining about umpires. But I did dig in and find a couple things other than that. Here's you go:

• Whoever the guy doing color commentary on ESPN Radio is a genius. Paraphrase: Phillies are 0-6 in playoff series if they lose the 1st game.
• Is that all-time? Does that include Mike Schmidt's teams? Does that go back to the Phillies of the 1880s? That stat means NOTHING!
• Then Berman: "Lee has retired the side in order in the last 4 inn." Color Commentary Genius: "Yeah, retired, but is he getting tired?" Nice.


• We have a chance to lose Plaschke and Simers? Choices... RT @villaraigosa ...we're willing to give up the LA Times if we lose the series.


• Dodgers let Will Ohman go. I'm upset. He was on the DL so long this year, I couldn't get in any "Oh man!" jokes. Maybe it's for the better.


• Man, Ben Francisco is three types of ugly. What a frightening face...
  
  


• [TBS Color Commentary Guy:] "That's a ball that's got to be played, a double play that's got to be made... and the Dodgers should be back in the dugout." Nice finish.
• How about: "That a ball that's got to be played, a double play that's got to be made, then the Dodgers gonna get paid." Needs a little work.


• According to Vin, the Philadelphia authorities have greased every pole in the city. Fill in your own jokes here.


• I'm rooting for the Yankees in the WS. They spent more, they should win. That's capitalism. A lower payroll team winning is socialism.


• Hahaha. Fill in your own jokes, ladies and gentlemen. RT @MLBONFOX Karros: Angels are baseballs version of a "cockroach."


• This does make me feel a little better. Phillies Fan Fail:
  




• Yankee Stadium: looking a little empty. I thought Dodger fans were the only ones who left early? Media? Oh, they're an East Coast team? Nvm.


• I hate the Yankees, but gotta admit, love the Phillies beat down, especially Lidge. Reminds me of how much I love this:
  

Alright, we're through four games in the World Series. It's probably over before long now. I'll see you all then.
