I was just thinking how tired me and the dog are

and I had to deal with metro after showing before the gates opened. Was set to go to sleep at 9 then saw they were playing.

Time to end this

Lot of Dodger fans

Pretty much to be assumed that fans of a visiting team from the West Coast will be more motivated to stick around than home fans will be simply because they don’t get to see their team as often.

We left after the fifth inning because we needed to head home and I saw the soccer game was close to ending, so we wanted to beat their crowd to the Metro. Made it home before the ninth inning ended and we have it on the radio now.
