“I’m not the world’s biggest football fan anymore, but it still amuses me when the Dodgers go up by a touchdown, so to speak. (Less so when they’re losing by a touchdown.) Still, moments like those remind me why it’s fun to learn 6 on 6 flag football plays and get in on the action myself.”
With football playoffs in gear and the Dodgers offseason having one of its quieter weeks — though Jimmy Rollins will be making an appearance at Dodger Stadium at 4 p.m. today, airing live on SportsNet LA and Dodgers.com — I thought it’d be fun to check out the Dodger games that looked the most like football scores. (The NFL and AAFC Brooklyn Dodgers not included.)
If one other person finds pleasure out of this, it will have been worth my while. (I’m counting on you, Eric Stephen.)
