Congrats to the Dodgers! You won your division, so splash in a pool!

Pathetic. And, no, I'm not a Dodger hater. That display was pretty lame.

    Lamer than having a pool at a baseball stadium in the first place?

    I'm probably in the minority, but I thought that was pretty funny.

    I was up in the air on this, and didn't have strong feelings either way, until I watched PTI and they made a great point: don't want them splashing in your pool? Win games. Don't let them celebrate on your field. How is it any more or less 'insulting' than when a team celebrates a playoff spot/division/championship on the opposing team's field?

    And let's be honest: it's not as if the D'backs have a long-standing tradition here, it's not like this is, oh I don't know, Chavez Ravine with decades of history behind it. This is a relatively new field with a frickin' swimming pool in it. Fenway Park it is not.

    Is it any tackier than having a pool in your stadium to begin with?

    As a Dodger fan I would have preferred they had basically no celebration. In my mind there is nothing to celebrate until you win the world series. I remember the Lakers, in the 80's, did very little celebrating until the finals championship was won. Oh well.

    Too bad they didn't clinch in Oakland. They could have taken a dip in the new "pool"....

    I can't imagine Mattingly was too pleased with the pool thing... Did anyone catch his comments?
