The Dodgers knew the Yankees’ fatal weakness — and brutally exposed it

When you are in charge of something and see redundant mistakes, you are either fixing them or condoning them — there is no middle ground at this level.

sooo.....do NHL teams have scouting reports of each other for the playoffs?

"They were thrilled at how short Yankee leads were at first base to potentially be less of a threat on pivots at second, where Gavin Lux does not excel. They said their metrics had the Yankees as the worst positioned outfield. They were amazed how many times relay throws came skittering through the infield with no one taking charge and how often Jazz Chisholm Jr., for example, was out of place or just standing still when a play was in action. "

This is some next level scouting. Not sure the NHL is this good.

I expected Lux to be the next great Doyer. I think they are gonna move on from him

Not sure he's ever recovered from his knee injury. Have to give him credit for drawing a walk in the 10th before Freddie's slam and the sac fly in Game 5.

Gotta say, watching die hard Yankee fans livestreams' of game 5 and the 5th inning meltdown has been highly entertaining. This link is timestamped, click it to get instant satisfaction

He's not the only one. I have more lol

He definitely was. Just sharing for the 5th inning reaction

I think the Chargers just might win the Super Bowl this year. As it stands, it has been 41 years since an AFC team from LA won it all. That team is now in Vegas. That is unless my Packers perform well.

I gotta say UCLA has really turned their season around. I thought Foster was another nepotism here, aka Dorrell , but they have been pretty amazing

My USC trojans are rapidly returning into the hot steaming pile they were with the head coach throwing the qb under the bus (miller moss enters the portal) and the university president being nudged into retirement.

Unrelated to LA sports, but this cracked me up today.

USC getting fined for 50K and put on probation for a year because they had basically 6 analysts engaging in coaching activities on and off the field. lmao Riley can't go soon enough.

USC fined, gets probation for coaching violations

USC's football program has been fined $50,000 and placed on a one-year probation due to a violation of "on- and off-field coaching activities" during the 2022 and 2023 seasons, the NCAA announced Tuesday.

ARRRRRGHHHHGH
riley needs to be taken out and shot

Riley needs to go for sure, but that is more because he is a lousy coach. But the NCAA is insane organization, I can't believe in 2024 it's still a thing, with college football just pro athletes representing the schools.

Oregon uses back channels to try and poach All-American players when they are still on other teams rosters (getting ready for playoff games, no less), and nothing happens, but analysts participating in practices is just too much.

It's still inevitable it goes the way of the Dodo bird, but I thought it would have happened by now.
