Tommy Speaks the Truth!

Oh how I miss those weekend afternoon pep talks with Tommy Lasorda on the television. He would mold my impressionable mind with stories of the great Dodger in the sky and the moral righteousness of Dodger Blue. It is his fault I'm a rabid unapologetic die-hard Dodger fan.

So, I'm happy to report that the great preacher of Chavez Ravine hasn't lost a step. From the LA Times.

Tom Lasorda served as the master of ceremonies at the 82nd annual Assn. of Professional Ball Players of America banquet Saturday night in Long Beach.

Lasorda spotted Gerald Pickens, head of the Compton Baseball Academy Teams youth program, in the audience wearing an Angels jacket.

"I would appreciate it if the guy with the Angels jacket would get out of here," Lasorda said. "The only Angels are ex-Dodgers and they're all in heaven."

That's right! Welcome to a Blue Heaven!
