Could there be a more negative headline and unnecessary column than this article by Dylan Hernández: “They should win the World Series this year or be forgotten” Who wants to read this pathetic excuse for a story? What exactly is the point of such downers when we Dodgers fans are enjoying this season to the fullest? Hernandez and the LA Times wasting space is a disgrace. Ready to forget Hernandez, not the Dodgers.

It’s a wonder how Dylan Hernandez reports the Padres sweep of the Dodgers and turns it into a tale of darkness and doom.
A birthday party at Hernandez’s house must be a blast.

I’m looking forward to reading Dylan Hernández’s reflective column for calling the West Coast, home of the US Navy’s Pacific Fleet, “Port Loser.” And for his sake, I hope you write that apology before meeting the Marines at your favorite watering hole.

Dave Roberts’ poor pitching decisions in the playoffs are the reason the Dodgers have dominated the National League for several years and won only one championship. 2017 Worlds 2nd and 7th games of his series. In Game 5 against the 2019 Nationals, he foolishly allowed [Clayton] Kershaw, who hit 28 home runs that year, pitched to Anthony Rendon and Juan Soto in the eighth inning of a 3-1 game. Sure, he won a lot of regular-season games during his season, but it means nothing if it all comes down to his one decision in the playoffs.

Transfer portal risk
Chip Kelly is the luckiest man alive. The transfer portal was made specifically for this lazy, past performance-based football coach.
Wouldn’t you think Transfer Portal players would present more unknowns and be a less cohesive unit than the home growth players who spent years in the program? .
He now runs a mercenary program.

Serena Williams’ unrealized potential
Serena Williams has created another media circus by announcing her possible retirement from tennis. Her legacy of excellence is cemented in tennis history, but her on-court outbursts and selfish behavior will also be remembered. prize. Serena…you could have done a lot more.

Lack of fairness or charm?
Complaining about the lack of “fair wages” means someone is being unfairly paid. The WNBA’s path to “pay equity” does not explain the current unfairness of her WNBA salary. Just because they are paid less than overseas female players and NBA players doesn’t make the situation unfair. Established leagues with much higher returns can pay more money to their players. If fans don’t want to attend enough games or watch them on TV to generate the income needed to pay higher WNBA salaries, the players (and the sportswriters who cover them) We cannot rightly say that there is a lack of fairness. It’s just not appealing.

number of opinions
It’s fitting that the NBA retires Bill Russell’s jersey, but why wait until he’s dead? The NBA should have done it while he was alive so he could enjoy the gesture!
We can think of others who deserve that honor. [Jerry] we stand [Michael] Jordan. Show them the respect they hold now.

Thus, the NBA permanently retires Bill Russell’s 6th place overall in the league. However, current players who are already wearing No.6 will be exempted and can continue to wear it. Another LeBron James special rule/exception? If he does, I’m sure other players who are currently wearing number 6 will follow suit.

this and that
Raised in rural Sacramento Valley, Aaron Rodgers uses psychedelics and does not violate the NFL’s drug policy. A city man who smokes a joint is considered an outlaw. Rogers’ talent for escaping things doesn’t seem to be limited to pockets.

They can sign big free agents and get [Fernando] Tatis is back on the field, but the Padres can never win without one fundamental change. They must get rid of his yellow uniform of brown and mustard. We recommend Teal, which is perfect for seaside teams.
