A history of Dodger blogging, 2000-2009 – the rough draft
With the first full decade of Dodger blogging coming to a close, it occurred to me that it might be time to do a little history preservation before too much time passes. So, as you'll see in the chart below, I'm in the process of trying to build a mini-encyclopedia of all who have blogged about the boys in blue.Either it's time to actually start writing about baseball, or increase the budget for the marketing department who's brightest idea has been to put L-Ram on Ventura Blvd with a sign. I'm gonna ignore the part where Weisman asks to remind him of any blogs he may have missed because around these parts we like to take things personal. Why, you ask? Because, 1.)L-Ram has thin skin, and 2.)we're internet tough guys. This means war Jon Weisman! Prepare for a barrage of poorly made photoshops, and anigifs.
Now that that's out of the way, on to my real reason for posting. Seeing as how I'm on a baseball writing strike until the Dodgers acquire a legitimate baseball playing human, (or the season starts - whichever comes first) please allow me to take this time to congratulate the Dallas Cowboys for clinching a playoff spot after a win over the mess that is the Washington Redskins.
With this accomplishment, step 1 of Ferio's Plan to Successful Success is now complete.
Step 1: Playoffs.
Step 2: ???
Step 3:
I'd also like to thank da Bears for beating the Favres last night and giving us a shot at the number #2 seed going into the final week.
I'll be back once the rage subsides.

Romo looks like a complete douche wearing that Bob Marley shirt. I highly doubt he can name more than 3 songs of his.
Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent.
I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums.
Christy, take off your robe.
Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument.
Sabrina, remove your dress.
In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism.
Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little.
Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock.
Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole.
Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds.
Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it.
But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.
That's how you name some songs motherfucker. What that has to do with your comment? I don't know.
Basically, you used a long rambling "American Psycho" quote to deflect attention away from Romo being a douche. That about sums it up. Well played
L-ram is a closet Romo fan! All he does is talk about him...I bet you have pictures of him, that you stare at to help you fall asleep on sleep-less nights..
Damn L, you got outted!
I can never root for Romo. That little smirk he does after he throws interceptions makes me want to punch him in the face.
Just keep on doing it for yourself. That's the only person you need to satisfy.
Missing Juan Pierre already. Hope our outfield can cope with losing him...does your BLOG retain his name in 2010?
@M.Brown
Are you telling me that this blogging business isn't gonna make me millions? L-Ram lied to me. Nah, I'm joking, I do this to entertain myself and vent every now and then.
@LisaLewis
Yeah, the blog name's gonna stay the same as JP's hat will continue to be oversized in Chicago.
"Are you telling me that this blogging business isn't gonna make me millions?"
Only if you can come up with a pic of Jamie and her driver having a nooner is some cheap hotel. A real one,not photoshopped.
