TJ Simers Eats His Words

Now I'm not one to say "I told you so," but when it comes to this article by TJ Simers in the LA Times, I think we should all write him an email and give him a great big "Suck It," courtesy of the city of Philadelphia and its expatriates (like myself).

Here's a quick exerpt from the piece, published last Friday:

"It's an angry place, all right, everything old here in Philadelphia, crumbling and in ruin. Even the city's main attraction has a crack in it...Philly has always been more bark than championship bite, so why should the Dodgers give a hoot about folks who paint their faces and then have to drive home looking like sad clowns? The Dodgers have the better team, a destiny date in Boston, and while that might make the folks in Philly miserable, they don't know how to act any differently here."

Good thing it's always warm in LA, the Dodgers should have no problem scheduling their tee-times next week.

Simer's email address is t.j.simers@latimes.com.
