    You should have added that the fans should have been arrested for assault...

    it was a straight up news story, not an opinion piece. Wire service stories like that are about what happened and not what anyone thinks should have happened other than if any of the players would have said that.

    Could have titled the article "Yankee Stadium Jackwagons ejected...." instead of "Fans" would have been straight up news and no opinions.

    Dodgers are going to beat the Yankees, I would say in 5 games. National league was the superior league this season and I’ll be surprised if the Yankees can stop LA. We’ll see.
    Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

    I saw something that said dave roberts was a probable HOF'er. really? a career .266 hitter with a WAR of 9 over 12 seasons. just because he won 1.5 WS with a billion dollar team? man, the standards have slipped.

    it was probably for winning multiple world series titles, there's about 20 who won multiple world series titles and they often get in as managers.

    yea, he's won one and a half. :angry:

    I'd say he's not a HOFer as yet, but the likelihood that he continues on for some time with LA and wins a couple more titles will shift that narrative and he'll get in as a manager (certainly not because of his playing days).

    And this is not the typical high payroll team where the manager makes all the decisions. This is basically plug and play with the numbers guys telling them what moves to make.

    had a good bar dinner of fried shrimp…but it was kind of dampened by the fact that the TV in my vision was showing d**ger festivities from chavez latrine. fucking sleeveless kershaw…sound was off…maybe he was saying “thank me for not being able to lose in the postseason”?

    was the unanmoius MVP. His 12 RBIs tied the record set by Bobby Richardson with the Yankees in 1960.
    And that 1960 series went seven games and, despite losing the series, the Yankees scored the most runs ever in a series with 55. So for Freeman to tie Richardson in only five games is incredible.

    Another fun fact about that series.  Pittsburgh hit a Homerun in the first game and last game with ZERO in between.
