Kershaw-Sale Game 1. Dave Roberts. Rich Hill. Beat LA. Lot of meat on the bone for the media.
I hope everyone realizes that the Beat LA chant referenced here and elsewhere were Celtics fans at the Garden exhorting the Sixers after losing to them in the Eastern Conference Final.

Chavez Ravine is/was a hassle to get to. 30-45 minutes to get into parking, over an hour to get out...which is why I understand when fans routinely leave in the 7th inning of CLOSE games. but uber/lyft have really changed the equation...

No, but even if so, I’d rather play there with a bunch of fake fans that leave in the seventh or show up late then a tight park with a rabid fan base like Miller Park (if we’re talking simply about venues).
Yes that part is 100% true. See my comment in other thread.

Dodgers are a very talented team. Way more talented than Milwaukee. I think they underachieved during the season.

Gonna be a great world series.

I'm aware of that. they've looked pretty bad all year yet here they are.

regardless of whatever argument you want to construct, just point to how we got here. you can't tell me the Dodgers are better than the Yanks or the Astros.

Plus we knocked around better rotations in the Yankees and astros.

And again Kershaw is not the Kershaw of old. He has a shit load of miles on His arm.

A. The Dodgers are fucking obnoxious. Machado and Puig to name a few.

B. The Brewers are easier to beat.

C. Two cross country flights for the Red Sox. Jet lag works poorly for the guys going east to west.

D. Lot of distractions in LA. No distractions in Milwaukee.

E. Movie stars in the stands. I assume there are also hankies.

How could anyone want LA?
