Well, the knee taking Dodgers won the World Series against the knee taking Tampa Bay Rays in the 6th game with a score of 3-1. I really do not watch pro-baseball any longer but it occurred to me that the win is a little tricky this year. Tricky in that the Dodgers haven’t won a 144 game regular season World Series since 1988. There were only 60 games this year because of CV-19 so does that mean that the team is only great in the short haul? I mean, would having to play another 84 games have affected the outcome? Dunno. We’ll never know but it will still go in the books as a win and I guess that’s what matters.
Justin Turner ruined it all for the team during the immediate celebration. Then LA savages began looting and carrying on in downtown LA. Some way to celebrate. As a life long baseball fan and remembering the Brooklyn Dodgers well, these slobs are not worth even mentioning on the West Coast. I hope the Commissioner has the guts to come down with a sledge hammer on them.
Although I've been a Los Angeles area resident for 75 years, I never did like the Los Angeles Dodgers, because they are not from Los Angeles. The same goes for the Los Angeles Lakers. There are no Lakes in Los Angeles, but there are many in Minneapolis! Los Angeles thinks It can have anything it wants. Fooey.
I find that since I've stopped watching pro sports, my taste for college sports (which I loved) has waned. I now tune in and can't tolerate the announcers. The degree of hysteria over the mundane is just too disproportionate. Perhaps all that's happened in 2020 has killed my taste for contrived excitement. And that might not be a bad thing.
Yeah, that’s like when the New Orleans Jazz became the Utah Jazz. Since when is Utah known for its Jazz?
Yeah, at least the Oilers changed their name when they moved to Tennessee. (And I have to say that the Bum Phillips/Earl Campbell years were a lot of fun in Houston.)
