Here you can see a lively and virile Tommy Lasorda chewing out some hapless camera crew for wasting his time with a bunch of amateur mistakes, no doubt. It's as if none of these guys have ever worked on TV before, the fuckin' assholes. More »

Last night, Tommy Lasorda made it perfectly clear that he wants to be referred to as "Tommy Pump" from now on. At present, Tommy Pump is on a mission to right the wrongs of Dodgers fandom. More »

Kobe Byrant, the newly single Frank McCourt, and a very sleepy Tommy Lasorda took in Game 2 of the NLCS today. Of course, this was in the fourth inning, so the trio is probably already eating dinner in Malibu. More »

Tommy Lasorda has an impressive amount of energy for a man his age, but he does seem a little lethargic in this interview—and by lethargic, I mean, he can barely hold his own head up. More »

Well, this just makes me miss Deadwood all the more: It seems that raunchy language was such a problem in professional baseball in the late 1800s, that the league actually handed out a document telling players to knock it off. It lists several examples of banned expressions, which are absolutely filthy, to say the least. (Language not safe for work, children, or small pets): More »

The Dodgers on Thursday threw up a smoke screen to hide a rise in ticket prices, and it's a pretty effective one. A ticket in the right-field bleachers has gone up four bucks, to $10, but with that you get all the Dodger Dogs you can eat. Eric Gagne for an endless supply of weiners? Sounds fair to us. More »

This story isn't totally new, but it's the first we've seen of it. And we have to warn you in advance that all sides here are quite possibly insane. Charles Littleton, 22, was tackled, tasered and hauled off to the hoosegow last week for refusing to remove his Los Angeles Dodgers cap during a Saginaw, Mich., city council meeting. (If not stopped now, police figured, next time he might refuse to leave the library.) Littleton is now speaking out, and the local ABC affiliate reports: More »

In case you haven't been paying attention, a very old man is demanding that you cancel your plans this weekend to stay home and watch the baseball playoffs. It's Tommy Lasorda, of course. You know, the guy who decided to pitch to Jack Clark in the ninth inning of Game 6 of the 1985 NLCS. Suddenly he's an authority on how you spend your leisure time. More »

The Best Sports Blog directs our attention to a message board post from a guy who claims to have had a bizarre run-in with former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda at LAX on Friday morning. Allotting for the fact that it's from a guy who claims he just went to a Collective Soul concert, and with the standard "we have no idea if it's true or not" caveats, it's still a most amusing story we can't help but share with you here. A highlight: More »

The Los Angeles Dodgers are very close to hiring a new general manager, the team leaning toward current assistant GM Kim Ng or assistant San Francisco Giants GM Ned Colletti to succeed Paul DePodesta, according to the Los Angeles Times. More »

Not surprisingly, the sabermetric-friendly Web is all abuzz this morning after the firing of Dodgers GM Paul DePodesta on Friday evening. As always, Baseball Musings is on top of the story, looking at the aftermath of the move, tracking the journalists trying to make sense of it and ultimately settling on one most likely culprit: Dodgers "advisor" Tommy Lasorda, who reportedly never got along with the "nerdy" GM and was furious about the moves away from "clubhouse chemistry."

Has anyone seem Tommy Lasorda? We're starting to get a little worried — he's supposed to be running the flagship blog at MLB Blogs, but hasn't posted since July 27. One imagines his tan Sierra found abandoned in Laurel Canyon, the driver's side door hanging open suspiciously and a trail of fast food wrappers leading into the woods. More »

We'd like to introduce a new feature, because features are fun and make the day just fly fly fly by.
