Baseball Gets Tricky.....

Baseball is a real tricky sport, a real tricky one. You can be the best team all season and turn around and lose a playoff series just as fast. Winning a lot of games comes with a lot of pressure and some teams can't handle and some teams just get beat.

This season the Los Angeles Dodgers have been dominating baseball. They came into today with 83-34 record which is far and away the best record on baseball. ESPN has a thing on their website keeping the pace to see if they can break the MLB wins record of 116 set by the 1906 Chicago Cubs and the 2001 Seattle Mariners. Remember when I said baseball is tricky? The 2001 Mariners managed by Lou Piniella didn't even make the World Series. That's how fast things can happen in baseball.

Right now everyone has the Dodgers penciled in to make and win the World Series, but remember baseball is real tricky come postseason time. This may be the reason by Clayton Kershaw can't get right in the postseason. Kershaw just doesn't have it on the postseason at the moment based off his 4-7 record with a 4.55 ERA from his regular season stats of 141-62 record with an 2.34 ERA which is the lowest of any picture with 1,000 innings in the regular season. Kershaw is the best picture on earth and everyone knows it. Baseball has a tricky way of playing out and you can see it with the numbers I just provided you. Kershaw is also on the DL right now so the Dodgers are hoping that he can come back strong and the finish the regular season on a high note.

The Dodgers have been the best team in the majors all season by far, they know it and we know it. They traded for starter Yu Darvish from the Rangers to even to add to their starting rotation even more. Their offense is loaded led by Cody Bellinger as they average the third most runs in the national league. They have everything going for them and all signs point to their first World Series appearance since 1988.


But hey, don't get tricked by baseball again......

Take The Blame!

These days people getting caught cheating left and right, and it’s getting worse because of the social media era. People be having sexual intercourse and be recording it. The person that’s recording is prolly going to put it on social media to show off. All the touching and twerking and licking on people gets reported too which means you’re probably going to get caught. What I don’t like is people quick to blame social media for they relationships messing up. You can’t blame social media sites for what you or partner did behind each other’s back. Just like when people blatantly flirt on social media they want to blame other people for their mistakes. Why not just break up with the person or not do the things that is considered cheating to start with? My thing is this, if social media broke up your relationship, how strong was your “relationship” anyways?

2017 Warriors vs. 2001 Lakers?

The Golden State Warriors as currently assembled are probably the best team in NBA history. They have the most likely the two best shooters in NBA history in Stephen Curry, and Klay Thompson. They have a great defender in Draymond Green that can guard anyone on the court basically, not to mention Green makes plays for the Warriors on offense and is a great leader for them. Then they have Kevin Durant who’s easily the best scorer in NBA this generation. He’s seven feet tall and can handle the rock with such grace you wouldn’t think he’s actually 7 feet. They have a do it all player in Andre Iguodala who does everything for the team. A lot of people are saying this team will beat any team in a 7 game series. I’m here to dispute that claim. The 2000-2001 Los Angeles Lakers were an all time great team. They featured Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal and a perfect cast of role players around them. They ran the triangle offense perfectly taught by Phil Jackson and had Shaq protecting the...

Anthony Davis THE MAN.

This NBA season has been full of incredible story lines, but one story seems to being overshadowed a little too much. Anthony Davis is a superstar basketball player. People are seeming to overlook that saying he's just a star because he hasn't won any playoff games, or they say he hasn't won any awards and things like that. The playoff wins are a bad point to me, to win a playoff series win the team he has currently constructed is comparable to the teams that Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson and Lebron James carried respectively. Those teams needed real life superstars to make it to the playoffs. Anthony Davis to be is not getting a fair shake to me in terms of being a superstar. He's has been dealt a bad hand overall. He has played on bad teams his whole career. The only thing I can hold against him is that he gets injured a lot. He has missed a lot of a games with a lot of injuries over his career. The New Orleans Pelicans went out and got DeMarcus Cousins last year at th...
