It may be tempting fate to mention this, but online voters like Mandalay Bay best among Strip casinos ... or, at bare minimum, dislike it the least. Voters in the Steve Friess "Stripper Poll" on which casino most ought to be imploded have cast nary a ballot against the big place with the Komodo Dragon (seen giving rival casinos a Bronx cheer). As for the winners/losers of this ignominious race, Tropicana Las Vegas still holds the lead but only 16 votes separate its first-place status from the fourth-place spot held by Imperial Palace. "Impotent Palace," look to thy laurels!
Baseball season: Six months of alternating paradise and torment -- paid out in 162 increments -- begin today. This Los Angeles Angels fan is at best guardedly optimistic, seeing how the team continues to accrue one-dimensional sluggers, tubby Bobby Abreu being the latest specimen. Also, with our three top-shelf pitchers on the ... well, on the shelf for time being, the starting rotation is the weakest it's been since 2003.
Now with two of the best Angels of recent memory, Garret Anderson and Casey Kotchman, playing for the Atlanta Braves, I'm actually going to have to start thinking positive thoughts about the Braves, if not of their tiresome manager, Bobby Cox, whose incessant petulance wore out its welcome, oh, around 1991.

Then, as part of a new radio/TV/billboard ad campaign intended to draw in paying fans from Los Angeles, renamed the team the "Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim". The city council was irate; went to court; lost; appealed; lost; gave up.
That's the story as I remember it. I don't know if the team has drawn any great number of fans from LA.
