I like this matchup a lot for the Dodgers.
My prediction:
The LA Dodgers in 5 games. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

I hope the Dodgers win the Astros winning it all for Hurrican Harvey is a little too manipulative for my tastes.
But this is much more preferable than last year's matchup. |

We would have had a ton of people rooting for us if we were playing the Yankees, since many people hate them. I think people will generally like Houston because they've been lovable losers for so long and don't seem to have any rivals because of how bad they've been for so many years. |

If you got $45k a head, I know my season ticket pool is selling Dugout Club seats for 2. |
That'd be quite an amazing return for your entire pool, thinking it could even cover a healthy portion of the 2017-2018 regular season for Platinum or VIP renewals. |

That's the hope haha. I forget which year, but we had Zachary Levi buying that pair once. _________________ http://media.giphy.com/media/zNyBPu5hEFpu/giphy.gif

Think it was 2015, recall he brought Yvonne Strahovski to the Mets series - didn't know those were your seats! |

He's been there a lot actually. That one was the more prominent one haha. We have 2 Dugout, 2 Baseline, 6 Field Level, and 4 Loge seats split up between 30, give or take 3-5 each year, of us haha. _________________ http://media.giphy.com/media/zNyBPu5hEFpu/giphy.gif

I got myself a Loge seat through a hookup from a friend. (Well, not that kind of hookup lol.) $925 bucks. What the hell, you only live once. |

Good handjobs. Only reason you can get $925 Loge seats. |
My buddy has expensive tastes and good connections. These Loge seats are like nosebleeds for him. He's the type of dude that only sits in the first couple of rows if he goes to a concert. Anyway, I'm glad he was able to secure a few tickets and got me one. |

Read an article yesterday that said Turner is banged up. He didn't workout yesterday. They said it's the same situation that has plagued him during the season calling it chronic knee inflammation. Something to keep an eye on. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Articles like this makes it seem like the Dodgers had an easier path to the World series in terms of competition. Lets not forget the D Bags are a no joke team. They are a team that could have won the WS. We just made them look weak because we are so dominant. Also the cubs are champs. They started the season slow but they were very good second half of the season.
I do agree that the best two teams did meet in the WS and its going to be a great series. Both teams very hungry. |

It's going to be hot and dry. Forecast at game time 95 degrees. Forecast at sunset 6pm 90 degrees. The ball should be flying out of Dodger stadium if good contact is made. With the extreme heat and likely hood of HR's I think the pitchers will go no more than 6 innings and wouldn't be surprised if they went 5 innings. We need to continue what we have been doing which is make the pitcher work for every pitch and make them go there bull pen as soon as possible. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Good. It's hard to be worse than Joe Buck, but TBS does it easily. But Buck just as easily can as bad if he doesn't have any bitter feelings against the former NL Central team. |
Anyone is better than that whiny (bleep) Ron Darling. _________________ |

I'm starting to get a little concerned about Justin Turner's health.
Quote: | @kengurnick
Turner spent 20 minutes in the outfield, most of it talking to trainers. Some agility drills, a couple sprints.

He'll be fine. He's had a noticeable limp in his gait for a while. I'm sure he can play through it. |
