  1. Crazy. Dad caught Rojas's HR, son caught Smith's https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/sports/lightning-strikes-twice-for-father-son-duo-that-caught-both-historic-home-runs-in-game-7-of-the-world-series/3799837/?_osource=SocialFlowFB_LABrand&fbclid=IwZnRzaAN2bs9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHsupN7GdKPr1GqwBfe10eGARoeP1t1YdOd5dj7iVkRuzJbPEtjDa15Ta1xap_aem_1V3wpDrQ3iEvBpXiiqwKmQ#mot6y3t744h6ynxo40nuv0xb0vm0wll
  2. Argument can be made
  3. I did. A BLT without mayo just seems sacrilegious.
  4. You should probably reread how you wrote it.
  5. That's truly incredible. Who did they think they were hiring, Knute Saban Lombardi?
  6. It was estimated the Dodgers generated over $100 million ADDITIONAL dollars from the Japanese market in Shohei's first season. They actually profited from signing him to a $70 million deal. And then add Yoshi and Roki, and they completely own that market. Dodgers are in great shape next year. Only free agents of note are Miggy and Kike, and neither is a key member. Played key roles, but neither was leaned on for much all season. Everyone else is back. Hate to see it, but I think we let Kike walk. His regular season, and even playoff numbers, this year were below average. If we can get him on a reasonable deal, fine. Rojas has said he wants to play one more year, preferably with the Dodgers. Bring him back. And you know Friedman is going to be dealing. Oh, and they have a top 3 farm system. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/46070464/2025-mlb-prospect-rankings-update-farm-systems-30-teams-mets-dodgers-mariners Do the Dodgers spend big money? Yes. They better the hell spend with how much they make. 4 million fans this season. Almost 600,000 more than the next highest Padres (by comparison, the A's and Rays both had less than 800,000 TOTAL for the season). But they have the best top to bottom organization- front office, ownership, scouting, governance- in baseball and it really isn't close. Usually these things run in cycles, and you'd expect them to be looking at some down years coming up. But no reason to think they can't sustain this for the foreseeable future. (btw, happy 100 to Mel Brooks!)
  7. Ah OK, it read like he was talking about Illinois.
  8. Dante Moore can singlehandedly win you a game against anyone. And singlehandedly lose you a game against anyone.
  9. Point of order- Illinois beat SC. And lost to UW.
  10. If I recall, not only was the buyout obscene, there was no offset, right?
  11. Dillingham is NOT leaving ASU for Auburn.
  12. What's the status of the Mel Tucker termination lawsuit? If he prevails, that buyout is gargantuan. If they settle, it'll still be in the tens of millions.
  13. Racism isn't part of their identity. It is the essence of their identity. And it just makes me want to slap a bitch when they make these blanket assumptions that minorities are the ones suckling at the SNAP teet. Uh, no. It's whites as the largest beneficiaries of SNAP.
  14. I have watched game 7 highlights like 500 times. Not really an exaggeration
  15. I was thinking, Miggy's HR has to rank up right near the top of the all time Dodger HR list. Freddie's GS last year was game one. We lose that we may still win the series. Even Gibby's was game 1. Miggy doesn't hit that out we very likely lose.
  16. We handled them pretty easily this weekend. You guys should roll.
  17. Give it up on that narrative, ask the Mets, Yankees, Phillies, Padres how spending wildly works out.
  18. Surly gon be surly, it appears.
  19. Yeah, well tough shit. We're hoisting the trophy
  20. https://www.instagram.com/p/DQj0q8klMUF/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  21. Doing the City of Hope "Walk for Hope". Wife was able to raise over $6k for our team.
  22. Toronto really outplayed LA most of the series. We just got them when we needed them. Dodgers did their best when their best was needed.
  23. Crazy to think how many different times we could’ve lost that game. Or last night’s game. But somehow, some way, they won.
