HALOBLOG.COM - The Absolutely Unofficial Blog Of The Angels

Description

Excerpted from the website:

What In The Hell is This Site About? For Whom Is This Intended? Is One of You Really Ruppert Jones?
You’ve scoured the web to find more information about your favorite baseball team, the Anaheim Angels, and you’ve again come up empty. Does nobody care? We do, and we have now for thirty years. And we’re tired of the same old AP stories, the fourteenth SportsCenter of the day, and the two-second blurb on Baseball Tonight about Vladimir Guererro. We thought something should be done about the lack of Angel fodder available to a certain kind of Angel fan. If you’re wondering just what kind of Angel fan we’re talking about here, well, then, you’re probably here by accident, or because you know one of us personally or because you were dorky enough to enter “Anaheim Angels” into an internet search engine. We’ve made this site, though, for the rarest of baseball fans, those of us that have obsessed, inexplicably, for most of our lives, over nearly every single pitch delivered to our Halos, even before 2002. We’re talking about Angel fans that, while obviously enjoying the modern version of the team, were relegated to taking pride in their team’s futility, in somehow finding a way to enjoy losing, or sometimes downright cursed, baseball. We’re talking here about people that had to find enjoyment watching Dave Chalk throw across the infield to Tony Solaita, or Mick Kelleher striking out looking. It wasn’t always Moreno and the monkey you know, it wasn’t always a sea of red, or chlorinated water cascading down Disney rocks. No, the halos couldn’t always afford to suspend a 100 rbi man in the middle of a pennant race. The Angels I grew up loving rarely had a 100 rbi man, or a pennant race, to speak of. But, no, none of us is really Ruppert Jones, Dave LaRoche, or any other Angel player. It's just us, using funny (or not so funny) Angel names from the past. So stand up if you remember Larry Harlow, shout out if you remember who else, besides Nolan Ryan, came to the Angels in the Jim Fregosi trade, and stomp your feet if the names Dick Drago or Sid Monge make you reminisce about the good old days, we made a web site just for your sorry, pathetic ass. Congratulations, even the dorks think you’re a dork. Put on your Angel regalia, fill your World Series coffee mug, join us for a while, and enjoy the only site on the internet combining blatant Angel homerism, scathing Angel commentary, and tributes to some of the most obscure baseball moments, and players, in history as we delve into all manner of Angel fandom.
