Today in Baseball we have Frankie McCourt, the biggest bag of shit this side of the Atlantic.
He ripped off the Dodger coffers for at LEAST 100 Large in the last few years..for his own personal use..then wonders why in the blue hell he can't make payroll.
I hate the Dodgers, being a Padre fan born and raised..but for the love of gawd..I despise what that fuckwad has brought on one of the most storied franchises in MLB history.
If I could meet up w/his skanky ass in a dark alley MY louisville slugger would be going non-stop on his stupid head..until someone stopped me.
I think I did more due diligence than the MLB did because I knew he had nothing except property..and they would rue the day they sold the team to him. He was laughed out of Beantown when he attempted to buy them a year before he bought the Dodgers..thank gawd they knew a grifter when they saw it.
America's Pastime Editor:
Don't enjoy our misery too much. More on producer, not looter McCourt here. (Not a Tax Dodger either.) We heard about it on the radio, so it must be important.
That is my whole point..I don't enjoy the Dodgers misery. I hate what is happening to them.
The Ball n' Chain has been a Dodger fan since he was a wee lad. We live up the 5 from LA where it turns into Highway 99,in the San Joaquin Valley, but are considered part of their viewing audience as we get all their games.
I shall read your link and comment afterwards. Thanks for leaving it. Mr. B.
WOW.
#50 is just flat out pathetic. His damn lawyers let him include 'this arguement'??:
Included in bankruptcy argument that since the Dodgers beat the Twins 15-0 shortly after filing was announced, “I think this convincingly disproves the argument bankruptcy is bad for baseball.” Are they mentally-challenged? I mean seriously..wth is up w/that being in a court document?
I was aware of roughly half of the 51 reasons to despise Frankie and Jamie. I really am stunned by the blatant grifting ole Frankie has pulled on MLB and everyone involved in this fuckery.
I was reading the list to the Ball n' Chain, he got up and left the room at number 35, just shaking his head.
