Other LA Sports: Dodgers, Angels, Lakers, Clippers, Rams, USC, UCLA, Fantasy, MMA etc

You can't fit on a bed. I'm only 6 and my feet hang off if I'm not all the way to the top.

 

[Ben Grimm]

Remember when they signed Luol Deng? That was a great move.

Agreed. I was gonna post that tweet, but I was so disappointed that there was only 1 post since Monday in this thread that I gave up in disappointment. I was living in WI in 75 when the Bucks traded Kareem to the Lakers. I've been a huge Lakers fan ever since. My son never cared about sports until 4 years ago, but he became a huge Lakers/NBA fan and doesn't care at all about any other sports. Go Lakers!

What a weekend for Kemp and the Dodgers.

That he lit up that bearded d'bag Bradley twice made it all the sweeter.

The Pac-12 is off to less than a stellar start this college football season. Every team in the conference playing a competitive opponent lost to their non-conference opponent.

This season has turned out once again to be a big fat flop for the Angels. How many more years of Trout will we see until he moves on to a team that wants to win instead of making money off of the LA brand Arte has been pushing? Major changes need to be made starting with the manager.Mike Scioscia has been living off the 1 championship for too long and should've been fired 5 years ago. I really hope he sticks to his word and leaves and doesn't have a change of heart.

We all knew this was coming. Unfortunate, but inevitable, will likely miss all of 2019.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Probably the end of his 2-way career. He will have to stick with being a pitcher or a position player.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Meanwhile Jansen will sit out the Colorado series on doctors orders.

 

[KINGS17]

We lost one of the all-time greats today.

And 2019 will be another wasted year for the best baseball player that any of us have ever seen.

Mike Trout is a sports tragedy.

Yep. You'd think the thought of building a team around him would've crossed someones mind at some point. Hell, even Pujols has wasted his last few great years there.

 

[Herby]

I wonder if the thought has crossed the Angels mind to just forget about the pitching with Ohtani. I mean the guy has a higher OPS than Goldschmidt, Arenado and Machado and he is a rookie who happens to hit left handed. Tough to give that up, and a year of Trout's prime on the chance he returns as a pitcher (which also limits his bat).

I wonder if he can play 1b with the damaged elbow ligament.

Fork'Em!

That made my Saturday night.

 

[The Tikkanen]

What do you guys think about MLB using the same size baseball as they do in Japan to help prevent blown out arms?

Yeah, that was a big win for the Sun Devils. Still thinking they will go 6-6 or 7-5 though. The conference schedule is pretty tough this season as they play Washington, Oregon, and USC on the road.

Harry is probably the best WR in the country. ASU will miss him next year.

Pac-12 bounced back a little in week 2, but still probably the worst of the Big 5 conferences. Maybe the Pac-12 has a case against the Big 12. The power in the Big 10 is so slanted to the East, I think they need to find a way to re-align the divisions. Wisconsin or Iowa are locks to represent the West every season in the Big 10 title game, and they are usually the 3rd or 4th best teams in the conference.

How many passes did Charger receivers drop today? Time to bring John Jefferson and Charlie Joyner out of retirement.

And ofcourse a missed FG and special teams brain-fart. Wouldn't be Chargers football without those things.

Ha Ha Ha ...a tie in the NFL ! What, no shootouts?

 

[Herby]

Chicago sports talk meltdown after the Bears/Packers game. It rivaled Team 1040 after a Canucks playoff loss.

 

[kingsholygrail]

It was pretty epic.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Cleveland fans must be celebrating. Their best start in over a decade.

are Japanese baseballs smaller?

Yeah, 'da Bears snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Feels like sometimes these coaches just try and outsmart themselves. If I were the Bears I would have ran twice on 3rd and 1, if you get a first down the game is basically over and a even if you get stopped the Packers are probably playing for a FG. The stupidest thing in the world is going up 6 and giving Rodgers the ball back and letting him win the game.

Nagy is rightfully getting ripped for that whole sequence of decisions, and rightfully so.

 

[The Tikkanen]

Smaller and harder.
