Chief Bratton to the rescue

Well- looks like Frank McCourt hired former L.A. police chief William Bratton to fix all that ails security-wise at Dodger Stadium. If it's true and all partie are sincere, that is a good move by McCourt. Hopefully he realizes that people going to games and feeling safe is a big factor on whether people go to games or not. Props also to Supervisor Mike Antonovich for calling out the Dodgers about this also. I myself, as much as I love the Dodgers do not wish to observe gang activities, arguing with beer vendors after the seventh innings, or beatings of rival fans. My wife is even crazier about that. You can bet, whatever I rant and rave about here, she is watching even closer. It is families like us that are the bread and butter for teams like the Dodgers. Scare us away, and you will be hurt. Hopefully this isn't some PR gang band where McCourt is going to shake Bratton's hand, have a few photo ops with cops, security officers and fans. Hopefully McCourt and Bratton mean business on this one and will take fundamental steps to enact fundamental change.
