so you cant remember seeing one, but you know that they dont get props. makes sense.

whenever im out in my dodgers tshirt, i do get people coming up to me...i dont get the same type of reactions with just my LA hat, cause everyone wears an LA hat..even people who have never seen a baseball game in their life.
--- Quote ---MAYBE if Dodgers did win a title after 88, then we'd have a fair debate...but as of now, it's Lakers all the way, homie

you think if LA wasnt a Dodger town, that 115,000+ people would of gone to the Coliseum for an EXHIBITION game?
we have sucked for 20 years...a few good years here and there, but no titles. and even after a 20 year drought, its STILL a Dodger town. has been since the dodgers came to LA, and will continue to be until north korea blows up the west coast with a nuke.
it is what it is.

Javier:
This picture alone shows a few iconic figures/images that are part of Los Angeles' culture
-Dodger Stadium, historic site that Staples Center will never surpass. Sure it might look nice, but it will never surpass Dodger Stadium
-The palm trees, as any Angelino knows this is part of L.A. image
-Cars arriving in the parking lot is visible from inside the stadium, quite fitting to see this in L.A. Freeway Capital of the World
-The "LA" logo, which has transformed into much more than just the Los Angeles Dodgers logo
-The land of Chavez Ravine
The Dodgers franchise is much more than a sports team to Los Angeles. It's one of the richest things about the City, something every Angelino should be proud of.

do you realize how cheap baseball exhibition tickets are? LMAO. if Laker tickets were that price, we'd fill up a stadium of 1,000,000 people LOL. hilarious how you actually believe it's still a Dodger town. just turn on sports radio or tv...Lakers get way more coverage than Dodgers do out here and that's a fact. we even have our own radio station, do the Dodgers? also, the fact that people dont wear Dodger gears at raves only goes to show that the team isn't as celebrated in the community as the Lakers, and I really dont wanna sit here and argue this cuz I see it with my own eyes....I dunno, maybe if you live in a Hispanic neighborhood then the Dodgers will seem more beloved...but where i come from, they'd laugh at you for tryna claim the Dodgers are currently as big as the Lakers, because that is not true. not on a general consensus at least...PeACe

yea....but the thing is, whites and Latinos still like the Lakers. LOL. so while the majority of Dodger fans are from a certain demographic, everyone and their mama loves the Lakers. shit, go to Glendale and mention Lakers to the Armenians out there, its like a religion to them...then ask if they give a shit about the Dodgers and see what they say LOL. come on, people...yall must live in some Hispanic dominant neighborhoods to truly think Dodgers are as popular in all of LA as the Lakers.
