Eric Gagne back!!


I wake up today waiting to leave for school when I check the news (sports) and see that the Dodgers were in talk to sing Eric Gagne, one of their best closer in history. Now to say I'm not happy would be a lie because I can't stand Broxton, since down the stretch he sucks!!!! The only thing is Gagne is 34, and was released that he was on steroids. We already have Manny Ramirez, who was suspended for it, now we have two former druggies!!! hmmm I don't know about that one. Time will tell if Gange will fill our void of having a closer that can get the save. He gets a one-year deal $500,000 and had a chance to add other $500,000 with how he performs during the season.

Lets hope GAME OVER can last!!!!

Dodgers at Boys and Girls Club


Sorry I am late on this post, but been busy with school.
Anyway I was going to head over to ESPN Zone Tuesday, since I am only 4 blocks away, but I decided at last minute it really wasn't worth it..no no don't get me wrong seeing the Dodgers isn't a bad thing but I thought about it long and hard I seen all the players that were attending, have pictures with them, and most importantly have a few autographs by them, not just one. So why dig through everything I have and try to find something else for them to autograph?
That is what i decided plus homework!!!
well I also decided to head over to the boys and girls club that was by my house and have a few people I know there.
I headed over about an hour early before the players were suppose to arrive.
The Dodgers dream Foundation recently made the Boys and Girls Club on Pasadena Ave their 9th field out of 50 they plan on building around the community of L.A.
It is a very nice field, my parents and I waited, talked to some people, I pointed out Dodger personnel to my mom, then we heard the Dodgers were coming.

Tommy, Rudy Law, Kenny, Tommy Davis, and Andre passed me. I was gidding like a little girl myself awwww the Boys in Blue!!!!
Who wouldn't be greatful to meet the famous Tommy Lasorda!!!

Even Joe made an apperance

It turned out to be a great day!

I have started school already and the third week is about to start and guess what stress is here! lol.. well I won't bore you with my self and get to other things.
hmmmmm well how about the Laker game today? Kobe once again came through to close out the fourth quarter. To tell you the truth I was kinda of worried they were going to lose a heart breaker, but they didn't!!
Also starting tomorrow marks the Dodgers Caravan, I am hoping to get out for Tuesday at LA Live ESPN Zone, but we will see.
It would have been awesome to go both days but hey we can't always have what we want right?
I am excited though about the season beginning to start, I not only get to see the boys, but also my friends that share the same feelings and likes like me!!

Thanks Dodgers!


The Dodgers, who are known for their gifted farm team have signed the players that will establish this club for a couple of year. I HOPE!

They sign their young players to two and one years deals. I like that they finally signed Andre Ethier to a longer contract and didn't have to go through the drama of arbitration that they went through last year.

Dre deserves it as much as Kemp them two really held the team together.

The concern I have though is the signing of Broxton once again and for two years!! WHY??? I can't believe they didn't just sign him for one year and see what he does, if it turns out like last season they could have let him go.

Oh well hopefully he has grown and learned so the next time he is in a big game in which he only needs to get three outs he can do it.

Russell Martin, James Loney George Sherrill and Hong-Chi Kuo sign one years deals as well.

It is rumored that Ethier signed a 15.25 million contract and Broxton 11 million. The contracts are not yet finalized because they need to pass their physicals.

Martin will make 5.05 million, Loney 3.1 million, Sherrill 4.5 million and Kuo $950,000

Congrats to Shannon Brown


Shannon Brown of the Lakers has made it to the small dunk contest for the NBS All-Star game this year that will be held in Dallas Texas. There was ton of support by players and fans to get Brown into the contest. The website letshannondunk helped out too, everyone seemed on board to get Brown in, who has been a great asset to the Lakers off the bench. He has been playing great defense too. It is going to be nice seeing him compete in this contest!

Football: Season closing with playoffs!



Football playoffs started yesterday and let me tell you the games have pretty much been blow outs! I don't care to much about football, but the playoffs to the super bowl are pretty exciting.

The Cowboys, who came out of no where and finished strong, didn't look good in there playoff game against the Vikings losing 34-3 wooooowwww.....
The Saints with leading running back Reggie Bush won their game yesterday 45-14 and the Colts winning the Ravens 20-3

NOW: The Jets have come back at the end of the third and now are leading the Chargers in the 4th with a 17-7 lead. Greene just scored a 53 yard touchdown to give the Jets breathing room. Now all they have to do is play DEFENSE!!!!!!. I would like to see the Jets win even though I am not a fan of USC, Mark Sanchez has had a great year coming out of college, even though his former coach Pete Carroll didn't think it was a good idea.
NFC: Vikings and Saints play next week
ACF: Colts play winner of the Jets/Chargers game
