I understand your scorn. My father cursed O'Malley until the day he died, even though he moved to the Mets in the 60's. But O'Malley only deserves SOME of the blame for the Dodgers moving to LA. Conditions, economics, race relations and politics also played their part. Of course, the politicians just loved the "blame O'Malley" line.O'Malley's biggest mistake was insisting, even as the 1957 season was winding down that the Dodgers were not moving, even while he was negotiating with LA city officials. It made the betrayal all the more painful. |
