I know a certain Michael Pacholek who go unnamed here but who will appreciate this parody ... 5s

thanks johnny

Jack Newfield and Pete Hamill, Brooklynites who were then writing for the New York Post, were having lunch, and joked about writing an article titled "The Ten Worst Human Beings Who Ever Lived." Jack says he'll write his three worst on his napkin, Pete will do the same, and they'll start from there. Each man wrote the same three names, in the same order: 1. Adolf Hitler; 2. Josef Stalin; 3. Walter O'Malley. No O'Malley, no Al Davis (who was born in Brooklyn and should've known better), no Bob Irsay, no Bob Short, no Art Modell. O'Malley has never been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. The 100th anniversary of his birth in 2003 was completely ignored. And don't forget: He chased Branch Rickey away from the Dodgers in 1950, Red Barber in 1953, and Jackie Robinson in 1956. He was a dirty-dealing, evil son of a bitch well before he moved the team. This is why, to this day, I will even root for the hated Mets against the Dodgers. Oh, by the way, this was a good parody.

It's hard to make an amusing song out of this OS, it's really so minimalistic. Good job on doing so, and with a sports theme to boot!(which I usually don't cater to).

thanks michael (excellent rant) and agrimorfee

Everything that Michael Pacholek says might be true, but it is also true that the Dodger franchise was run a lot more professionally and effectively by the O'Malley family than by the two owners (Fox Group and McCourts) who have decimated the team since Peter O'Malley sold it seven years ago. And while it might have been cold to get rid of Red Barber, he was only replaced by Vin Scully, probably the best play-by-play announcer in the history of baseball. Oh, I agree, very good parody, Alvin.
