Dodgers Funnel Money From Charity

Not that we should be surprised that the pathetic Los Angeles Dodgers are.. well.. pathetic, but this one puts them in a new bracket.

NBC Sports reports that the Dodgers Dream Foundation — which is a nonprofit charity — used $400,000 of its $1.6 million annual budget to pay chairman Howard Sunkin. Sunkin is also the team senior vice president of public affairs (or as NBC puts it, a lobbying position).

The mission for the charity is “serve the educational and athletic needs of children and is supported by donations from the public.” So 25% of the funding goes to this lobbyist?

Man, I guess it could be worse — we could be **shudders** Dodger fans. That’s those silly McCourts! Idiots. Craig Calcaterra put it eloquently:

The only thing we know for sure is that the more we learn about how owners spend their money — the Dodgers owners and every other owner, really — the less we really want to learn.
