[True Lakers Fan]

And the Cubs just got their asses handed to them - What a great finish - a home run in the bottom of the 9th

And that’s all she wrote!!!

A three run homer in the bottom of the 9th with two outs out. Can it get any sweeter than that?

 

[The Derski]

So the Dodgers entered the postseason the hottest team in baseball (8-2 their last 10) and immediately go 5-0 their first 5 games.

I wouldn't call the Cubs losers though - In the spirit of good sportsmanship, they are a good club and a great organization. The Dodgers so far has just been flat out better than anyone this year with the exception of the 15 losses out 20 wins in the regular season

 

[Gloverd]

You wrong for that.

Hottest, and best. Sometimes the best teams win the World Series. Like last year. But in baseball it happens least of the big sports so there's still hope.

Yeah - and they will have a tough time in Chicago, but you got to like their chances and believe they will finish the series 4-1 or 4-2 at the worst for the Cubs. I think they can still get a game or two, but would like to see the Dodgers get 1 of 2 in Chicago

Damn!

Captain Caveman knocked the shit out of that ball!

Yeah - I wouldn't be planning any victory parades for the Dodgers just yet, but I do like their chances a bit better now

I've been looking at freaking beard now for five games and thinking - Damn, he looks like those freaks on Duck Dynasty..

 

[The Oldtimer]

It doesn't matter anyway because it was merely an insurance run. It gave the Dodgers a 4-2 lead and would ended with 4-2 without it. Madden knew the Dodgers had whipped his ass and he was trying to get his players fired up.

Yeah you're right. Turner just made the series 2-0. Go Big Blue!!!

You know how superstitious baseball players are so he damn sure ain't about to shave it now.

I hope not -I think I would be superstitious too

Good point, it's not over yet. It just means the Cubs have to win 4 out 5 to win this series.

I really don't think that can happen, from what I have been hearing, they are weaker than the Dodgers in their pitching rotation

So my internet and cable went down for the entire game. Had to listen to it on the radio. What is this? the 1940's?

Don't they play the next three in Chicago?
