No, I’m not the kind to go calling other fans “assholes,” never cared about that kind.

This. The Nats had one of the worst regular season bullpens ever assembled... and the Dodgers scored precisely 0 runs off it in game 5. Bellinger hit .211 for the series. Where is the blame for him?

As a Dodgers fan, I can tell you we’re kind of assuming a moral high ground here. So much shit talking from Giants fans, winning a WS kinda turns you Into an asshole fan, It seems. 

Here is something i’m intrigued by, and has gotten no attention:
There was a theory that Kershaw was tipping his pitches in game 2. A manager has to know whether that is a) true, and b) corrected before you put someone in that situation. The ease of Rendon spitting on the first pitch, and confidence in chasing the 2nd…

Scoring one run at any point after the second inning and before the tenth (when the Dodgers needed 4-5 runs) would have led LA to victory. But this failure isn’t as easy to blame on one person, like the two homers Kershaw gave up, so it gets glossed over.

I think the change in how bullpens are used, especially in the postseason, coupled with Kershaw’s decline in pure stuff makes him particularly unsuitable for the role Roberts seemed to think he was perfect for. Nowadays, managers can’t wait to get their starter out of the game so that they can parade one flamethrower…

Yeah, but how does next year’s playoffs help me meet my deadline today?

These feel like the sorts of decisions that get a manager fired. Not saying it will happen (an NLCS appearance and then two straight World Series appearances is not unimpressive of a run), but man, when you Strasburg out of the game and get into *this* Nationals bullpen with a 3-1 lead, that’s a manager’s loss,…

The Braves had one of the best rotations in baseball for a long time.  They won 14 consecutive division titles and only had one World Series win to show for it.  Some teams just struggle to get it done in the postseason.  The Dodgers are going to go down as another one of those teams.

Far be it from me to run counter to the “The [Washington Football Team]s are the worst people and team, ever” narrative - mostly because I’ve always hated this team. So I drink the delicious Schadenfreude Slurpee year after year.

How will the Jets be able to get to office early enough to fire Adam Gase? Woody Johnson will have to camp out in front of his door in a sleeping bag the night before like he’s buying Springsteen tickets. 

“...Oh, hey, Dan, yeah, it’s Jay...my dog’s really REALLY sick man!  I’ve gotta get him to the vet.  I’m free on January 10th - let’s get together then, OK?...”

Sounds like a pretty good way to start the week.

Ever try to drive through the area on a Monday morning? Snyder saved him at least 2 hours round trip by doing it this early.

A distant second to Lane Kiffin getting axed on the tarmac and left to find his own ride home.

tell you what, dabo swinney’s gonna have one hell of a time turning this franchise around

Plus now he has the whole day to himself!

$5M to go away (assuming he gets paid out for his 2020 deal) AND he doesn’t have to continue with that dumpster fire of an organization?

Sounds like a pretty good way to start the week.

Kind of unprofessional not to do it first thing in the morning, and instead wait until he was two hours into eating tape.

At ECW November To Remember 1999, I watched from about 12 feet away as New Jack jumped off the top of a basketball backboard onto The Baldies.
