I'm a big fan of yours, but you're way off base on this post..

Congratulations to the LA Dodgers.
Don’t get me wrong, they dominated play in all areas, like not even close.

But winning fast does suck for a lot of people. 😎

Was pulling for the Yanks tonight, just so it would shift back to LA for the last game or 2.
Would've been cool for them to have been at home.
Ragardless, congrats to the Dodgers & their fans.
Was a fun series to watch with Pops !

I just had this conversation with my son.
Has nothing to do with the actaul win.
It's the lost revenue for any city.
Or revenue they didn't know was coming 6 months ago. It's still money not spent in a city.

Winning at home is preferred. But not the plan. Just win..

Not a Yankees or a Dodgers fan but that just comes from living in Northern California Central Valley, but I do enjoy watching great players. It’s hard not to like Freddy what a good dude. Judge grew up in Linden as most of you know a little town east of Stockton where I was born and raised. My sister has lived in Linden for 40 plus years. I’m an A’s fan since 72 and have never seen an owner and a city do so much damage. Congratulations to the Dodgers!!!

I hated (well, liked but hated actually) Freeman when he played for the Braves, super stoked he came over here, guy plays hard AF and when you are a fan of the other team you can't help but hate him while respecting him and his talent at the same time.

I love baseball! Great season but riddled with pitching injuries. Held it together with duct tape and bubble gum this year and pulled it off. Dodgers Yankees world series is as iconic as it's gets so this being the 1st full series win since I was 1 years old is pretty amazing and it was full excitement and some last memories.

Thank you Dodgers for a great second and pulling it off in the end.

I know what you mean, as I have gotten older I’ve found myself rooting for the good guys in sports. My grandsons are 14 and 16 and root like heck for Judge, he is larger than life for them literally at 6’-7’ 282 lbs. They like Betts also.

That’s not good. I have a lunch meeting down there.
Park at Union Station and take the A line rail to the new Grand Arts metro station. Easy. Or just catch the A line at Azusa Pacific U.

I always enjoy it when Gerrit Cole gets his ass handed to him. Tonight was especially gratifying.

😁
