Mike Scioscia Dodgers Bobblehead Night

Wow oh wow are the Dodgers being classy, desperate for attendance or both?
The Juen 12 Dodger Home Game interleague contest between the Angels and Dodgers will feature a giveaway of a Mike Scioscia bobblehead. Scioscia was a member of the Dodgers as a player, catching Fernando Valenzuela and Orel Hershiser and bleeding Dodger Blue and winning two rings (1981 and 1988) and all that. He is as much a part of Dodger lore as Bengie Molina or Bob Boone are integral to the Angels story.
Scioscia's managerial career started in the Dodgers organization but, oops, they canned him after the 1999 season and the rest, as they say, is history! A funny picture of the Soth in his glory days is at Big League Stew and we will see you at Elysian Park's Chavez Latrine in mid-June for the ultimate bittersweet collectible. Share a little poetry with your buddies who root for the Brooklyn Blue:
The saddest words
of tongue or pen
are not tragedy, but
"What might have been..."

Hilarious.
I might have to travel down to SoCal just to go to that game. I will then promptly break out the white out and red sharpie I cleverly hid in my pockets and make the uniform look like an Angel uniform. Genius, I say, GENIUS!

Hopefully I'll be able to attend this game and add Sosh to my bobblehead collection which consists of:

I'll be there in red
I live close by, it’s a much shorter commute for me.

Actually, maybe the Angels should give away a McCourt bobblehead when the dodgers visit
He has helped the Angel franchise.

Perhaps to take to the target range to shoot at........

I'm guessing more of a Quatto-like Total Recall arrangement.

This may be the only reason I would even consider going to Chavez Latrine for a game.
And I do mean “consider.”

Class?
I think they left that in Brooklyn didn’t they? I mean, the whole time the Angels had to be connected to them business wise they weren’t very classy. And that was with the sainted O’Malley family. Now even those who go for dah Doyers lament the arterial bleed out of class that started with FOX and got worse with Mc Court…. and had it’s flaming climax when Chavez Latrine became a San Quintin type shank fest this past season.
The Los Angeles Land Grabbers started out as classy as Sharon Stone in Casino and are now just the wet ashes after a trash fire.
Tim Salmon + Yankee cap = HOF.

Opening sentence, Bravo. One of the best I have read.
This guy is going to join my Dan, Ervin, Kendry(s), Eric…. Had to put Nap in a separate area.
Why do you come to my park in a Dodger, Yankee, or Sox hat when they aren't even playing? No ,I seriously want to know.
wonder if they will give him a painting too

Finger paints might be all they can afford right now, so I am thinking no.

custom oil paintings are the new bobbleheads
Napoli's 27th, 28th, 29th and 30th homers of the year (four more than Jeff Mathis' career total) rained down on Angel Stadium like knives from the ceiling.
No, custom "velvet" paintings are the new bobbleheads
you need to start with the correct medium.
