Default Dodgers need our help

I Dont write here or anywhere often, but
somethings going on in teh city of LA that must
end NOW. For those that dont know, a Boston
Real Estate Millionare (supposedly millionare,
all he owns is several parking lots in boston),
Frank McCourt is trying to purchase my beloved
Dodgers and the land Dodger Stadium is on. The
way he is planning on making the purchase is by
taking out a vast ammount of loans. This man
has no financial capital at all. He plans to
take one of baseball's mots storied franchise's
and turn them into teh Clippers. Doesnt take a
genuius to realize that when you take out a 430
million dollar loan, the payments are going to
be HUGE! SO to make a long story short, he's
going to have to make cuts and take
other "means" to make these payments. A real
estate magnate owning 300 acres of PRIME real
estate in LA? guess what he would do to teh
land Doger Stadium in on? Major League Baseball
owner's will hodl a vote to approve McCourt. IT
IS IMPERITIVE THAT WE ACT NOW. Please help
us.

1. Write to the LATIMES VIEWPOINT at
sports@latimes.com
they will get published on a pretty frequent
basis and FOX and ther MLB do see whats going
on.
2. Write to MLB. The information is on mlb.com
The only people who can stop the deal now are
MLB.
3. Call Radio Talk show hosts.
Call local shows-espn joe macdonald and doug
krakorian
Fox- Steve Hartman and Michael Thompson-I have
found it relatively easy to get on this show, aw
Hamilton(3-7)
There are other I'm sure you have your own shows
that you listen to on ESPN,FOX and The Ticket.
What this does is alert Los Angeles Council
Members that the fans arent backing them on the
sale and they can stop the sale-you have already
heard what Jack Weiss did on Thursday.
Sign this petition--WE NEED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
NOT HUNDREDS. YOU NEED TO WRITE TO THE LATIMES
AND CALL TALK SHOWS TELLING DODGER FANS HOW TO
SIGN THE PETITION.
http://www.PetitionOnline.com/LADVSFM/

LA does have an alternative to McCourt. A Los
Anegeles Native, Eli Broad. A Billionare who has
doanted countless ammounts to LA. He most
recently got together the majority of money for
the Disney Concert Hall among other countless
acts. He has said he would step to the plate
and buy the Dodgers if McCOurt is rejected.

Look I know most of you dont care for baseball,
but i hope you will help us in our time of
need. Baseball is America's pastime. And the
Dodgers are one of Baseball's most storied
teams. Everyone in LA can remember the first
time they sat at Dodger Stadium with a Dodger
Dog and a Chocolate malt. Anywhere you go, The
Dodger's Blue cap with its LA logo, is
synonomous with LA. They may not win all the
time, but thats not ther point. The Dodgers
are a integral part of LA. Please help us tell
this "shady" McCourt charecter, thanks but no
thanks.
