Not sure about that. The dodgers were a very likable team in the 70s and 80s. But in the 90s they got to be hated because they got arrogant. I forgot who the owner was but he was a real tool during the 90s and 2000s.

They were owned by Fox for a while and then by a guy named Frank McCourt, not the author of Angela's Ashes, just some overleveraged dipshit who owned some parking garages while his wife fucked the pool boy.

Also, Magic doesn't really own the Dodgers, they're owned by an enormous investment bank.



thats the guy i was thinking about- mccourt. He screwed up their farm system and everything the Omalley's had built.

this is a glorious night so far. 2 out of my 3 favorite childhood teams winning a WS in the last two years.

And Keyser, I've watched as you've torched my Astros, and not uttered a peep. This one's for you, buddy. They built it right...in fact, they built it the way the Cubs were going to, or were supposed to. Other than Appel, well done boys. Well done. This team can contend for the next 7 years.

I know but he's the face and plays it up online. First pennant in 29 years, ditch the Lakers regular season game

Who is going to close for the Astros? Surely you cannot run Giles out there. Verlander maybe?

I'll back off that somewhat, I guess you could compare Kyle to Dallas. Forget I said that. I'm too happy to bother making sense.

Fox is very unhappy that Puig has been a big fat zero this series. I'm sure they'd love him to start hitting.

I thought Dick Van Patten was sitting next to Mary Hart but I think he died a few years ago. The guy looks just like him.

I want to say that the Astros should pound the strike zone, but I’m worried Dennis will twist it.
