Only FBJ can answer that one but my bringing up the "homies" is tongue-in-cheek. I'm half-Mexican so there's no racism being expressed on my part and I'm definitely not trying to single them out. Frankly, all sports teams have their share of idiots. Look at College Football for Christ's sake. Some team's fans are graceful, are classy and some are not. And unfortunately, the Dodgers and the Lakers have suffered from those types of groups. But if you go anywhere in the world, you will find that type of behavior from just about every class of ethnicity.

This just came from the club. If there are no lingering effects, he'll throw the first of two simulated games on Saturday.
Takashi Saito threw 32 pitches in his bullpen session this morning (both fastballs and curveballs). He did not report any problems following the outing.

Sorry to hear about your troubles FBJ. I think you should do something drastic and e-mail TJ Simers, he likes to stir the **** and this is right up his alley.
I haven't been to a Dodger game in almost two years and I live in the shadow of Dodger Stadium, the crap that goes on sometimes really takes a lot out of the baseball atmosphere.
I was in line behind four people to get Mom (who can't walk without two canes or a walker) a Dodger Dog.
It took THIRTY ****ING MINUTES for these FOUR people to get their food. Why? Because EVERY ****ING ONE of them had friends in other lines playing the \"Whoever gets to the front first\" game. The second one of them stepped up to the register, four others would cut out of other lines and join the person in front of me AND PLACE SEPERATE ORDERS.
Of course, when I took exception to this the second time it occurred, their responses included, \"**** you, white boy\" and \"shut the **** up or I'ma knife you.\"
That's no exaggeration.
I hate going to Dodger Stadium. The last four times I've gone, I've had problems or seen people acting so despicably that it makes me cringe. Every time I gear up to go again, I hope that those were isolated incidents, yet when I get to the ballpark, I'm sorely disappointed. Having been to seven other ballparks, I can say with certainty that the negative experiences I've had over the last two seasons at Dodger Stadium are very unique. Security has no teeth because they're trying to be politically correct. Repeat offenders are let back into the ballpark the following night. There aren't enough ushers or security personell, and the security personell that ARE there spend most of their time out in the colonnade instead of watching over the fans in the stands. So until the McCourts start cracking down on parking-lot drinking and stop selling beer in the Reserved sections, I will buy no more tickets. I will pay no more parking. I will buy no more concessions.
**** that place. It's no longer fun and it's no longer family-friendly.
That just plain sucks, FBJ. I know right where you are coming from. I can't say that I've ever been threatened like you have, but I've certainly felt uncomfortable.
Not that it will make any difference but have you threatened not to renew your season tickets?
This is completely aside from you but it's kind of ridiculous that people bitched and moaned when the Dodgers hired LAPD to patrol the stadium during the games, yet we still see crap like this going on. Shameful.
