I know it seems crazy that we brought Kalia to a game 3 playoff game. I didn't think I could leave her when earlier that week we went to the stadium to try and get tickets and couldn't get into the stadium, she cried for about 20 minutes straight "dodger game mommy, I want to go dodger game" the whole time crying big crocodile tears. Although I think I will leave her home next time she was pretty good and we had a good time.
Poor Cubs...... just got swept by the Dodgers who they thought they would sweep. It reminds me of the 1998 Western Conference Finals when the Jazz were playing the Lakers. Lakers fans were stoked because they thought they would sweep us, I remember seeing the brooms on the news, a few Kobe air balls later and the Jazz swept the Lakers. Of course the Jazz went on to lose in 6 so I feel for the Cubs fans and they have been doing this forever. 100 years... wow. At the game people said "maybe next century" and chanted "sweep, sweep, sweep" every chance they got. Glad we swept the Cubs but I saw a little bit of myself as a Jazz fan. Deflated, hopeless and knew in their hearts that they were done. It's a weird feeling being on the other side, being a fan of an organization with money, confidence and hope. That being said, I love the Dodgers and the game was amazing. After the game we stayed and celebrated a little and I got a picture of Manny dumping champagne on some lady. We're going to the World Series, see ya then......
PS things that bugged at the game, Cubs fans (even though I felt for them, they were still annoying), people leaving early (someone left in the forth inning!), people with no Dodger gear on (come on it's the playoffs!)
