No, actually it's not. You're just being overly sensitive and you sound very young. Relax and have a good night.

Rest of the teams are all around .500

The teams that are playing the best are all currently in play offs or in contention. The teams that are the worst are ones that have given up and are playing all their minor league players or have traded every good player they have like the Tigers....and then there's the Dodgers and Angeles who are both playing all of their starters and in play off contention. Teams that fade in September and back into the play offs are destined to be swept in the first round. If the play offs started today the Dodgers would play the Rockies, who are the second hottest team in baseball thanks to the recent 4 game sweep of the Dodgers
This is pretty much it. Teams that have an awesome season and then slump towards the end of it usually don't fare well in the playoffs. Doesn't mean it will happen to the Dodgers, but it could. Has nothing to do with what some people here are saying, lol.

Two wins in a row against the worst team in baseball. Dodgers must be on cloud 9!

Exactly. It's easy to make attacks when you use guerilla warfare tactics. It is pretty funny how they haven't revealed their teams.

I like a team that has won more recently than 1988. It doesn't matter though. I don't mind the Dodgers really. Moderator cut: personal attack

Theres nothing obnoxious about it. This is our hometown, our home turf. Obnoxious is tranplants and out of towners telling natives how to act. People pile up on LA for not showing enough passion and when they do its considered obnoxious apparently.

Nobody is telling anyone how to act, just making fun of the guy who thought he needed to make a thread to tell everyone how the Dodgers were already WS champs 2 months before the World Series and 2 days into one of the biggest collapses in professional sports history. Don't put a target on your back and hand out the ammo if you don't want to hear about it.

LA once again is the Jesus Christ of baseball.


As a fan of a team that is not the Dodgers, I take those comments to be pretty offensive. That's not a nice post about being passionate about the Dodgers, it's a post about putting down people that are fans of other teams....or typical Dodger fan talk. If you want to brag about your team that hasn't done anything yet then sure you are opening yourself up to what you get. But then again, I grew up in a part of the country with serious sports fans
