Just before the final out, my 95 year old grampa, veteran of two wars, cancer survivor, and long-suffering cubs fan, pulled me aside and, with a tear forming in his steel grey eyes, said, “The blacks ruined this neighborhood and your sister dresses like a whore.” This was for him.

I don’t have a problem with the Giants per se, except for being vague divisional rivals (let’s be real...the Padres are too bad to have actual rivals). But holy shit the bandwagon Bay Area fans are obnoxious and REAL. Between the Warriors and the Giants, living here is fucking insufferable sometimes.

Curt hasn’t been this invested in a trainwreck since 38 Studios.

To be fair, they’re paying $87.5 mil to players who aren’t even on the team.

This weekend Kershaw will become the first pitcher since Randy Johnson to throw 300 ks in a season. Kershaw’s underwhelming 2015: 2015 :: Kershaw isn’t clutch:2014

This is good baseball fandom.

I’m a Mets fan (so obviously hoping for a quick exit from LA) but can definitely see why a baseball fan would root for the Dodgers. Clayton. Kershaw. The man is the Maddux of the younger generation. But he is stuck with this “unclutch” narrative that is garbage IMO. Baseball is a 162 game season and we judge a pitcher…

People have opinions. Get used to it.
