M-531----Excellent expose of what really went down.....and I was on the other side when it did, having moved to Los Angeles in 1954 and elated (at first) when the Dodgers announced they moving out to my adopted state. That lasted for all of about four months entering the season when O'Malley brainwashed the press not to refer to the Dodgers as the Bums, refused to allow fans to bring beverages into the Coliseum, decided to play in that monstrous disgrace of a saucer where you baked in the summer, and refused to televise any games until he was forced somehow to start televising their last eight games in San Francisco, where they thrilled the viewers by winning only one of those games. By June of 1958 when I graduated high school this once rabid Dodger fan began a hate fest towards that team that burns still deeply today. I just hope the Mets can win tomorrow and sent the LA Bums home as failures again. Here's hoping. |
