Long drive to LA or SD eh? **** Bud Selig **** the Texas Rangers I've been going to catch the Astros in ATL for 15 years, and next year will probably be my first time not getting to see them play live. I am so damned pissed about this. And sad at the same time.
I've been to some games against the Dodgers, but havent been to any Angels games. One of the reasons why I'm excited. Plus, I prefer an Angels crowd over the snobby Dodger fans.
Yeah, going to take me a long time to accept this. Very sad. Its like throwing the Eagles into the AFC. Gross.
Add Drayton, the AL, the DH, and Jim Crane to that list. And Nolan Ryan. And every idiot talking head who said this was a good idea. An interleague game will be played every day of the regular season next year. The more Bud Selig ****s with this game, the more it looks like the NBA wearing caps and long pants. A travesty.

Looks like Selig threw us a little nugget by having us on ESPN to kick off the season in exchange for completely SCREWING US taking us out of the NL.
