we have very different ideas on what that article was about. Might be a generation thing.

it can be tough to criticize some of the more iconic figures in the Blue universe, but you summed it up nicely, and unfortunately, I kind of agree with you. Jon really does try to look on the bright side, which is often great. In this case, though, there IS no bright side- none whatsoever- and he is left with a sort of “You Know, When You Really Think About It…” mentality, that just doesn’t seem to fit.

I did agree with what he said about “hating” the McCourts, as that really should be spared for a precious few depraved souls. But I absolutely, positively hate what they have done to the Dodgers. In a weird way, the worst part is that the Dodgers are STILL good enough right now, that too many won’t be able to see the damage that’s been done until it’s too late for this particular Dodger core to really gel into the “something special” we believe they can be (see Phillies, Philadelphia 2007, 08, 09…). What follows, I fear to think about. (see Pirates, Pittsburgh 1993, 94, 95………….)

I can’t speak for anyone else, but nothing short of just having the Dodgers mean a lot less to me can make me feel less disgusted about all of this.
