    Nah, not even close. You might be bummed today, and don't get me wrong I am too, but if we can pull this one out of a hat, like we've done all year long, the elation in here will be over the moon and it will last a lot longer than the pain of losing. EVERY TIME they tied the score, and when they went ahead 8-7, I was insane with happiness stomping around my house, high five-ing my son while screaming "FUCK YEAH" doing the Hulk pose. :D

    It was magic.

    Neither am I. It felt like you finally got your dream Ferrari, then your asshole workmate stole it along with you wife.

    Such a contrast and utterly devastating...speechless still.

    So many wants.

    chew on this to ease the pain of last nights loss.

    There is increasing chatter that pitching coach Rick Honeycutt will not return to the Los Angeles Dodgers for the 2018 season, league sources tell FanRag Sports. His contract expires at the conclusion of the season.

    “It would be a major upset if he’s back,” one source said.

    Honeycutt is a highly-regarded pitching coach and is considered among the best in the game.

    His close relationship with Clayton Kershaw, among others, shouldn’t be underestimated. Honeycutt leaving, either to retire, join the Dodgers’ front office or to join another club, would be a blow to Kershaw and the rest of the rotation.

    It’s likely that if Honeycutt does leave, the Dodgers look for someone who is more on page with the front office in regards to analytics.

    Who potential replacements may be remains to be seen, but many of the top options are off the market, as Jim Hickey went to the Chicago Cubs, Chris Bosio went to the Detroit Tigers and Mike Maddux went to the St. Louis Cardinals.

    The Dodgers don’t seem likely to promote from within, either, as they let Matt Herges, their Triple-A pitching coach, leave to become the next bullpen coach for the San Francisco Giants.

    Honeycutt has been on the Dodgers’ coaching staff since the 2006 season; during his time in Los Angeles, the Dodgers have won seven division titles, including five in a row, as well as this season’s National League pennant.

    The Dodgers currently trail the Houston Astros, three games to two, in the World Series.

    So what you are saying is that you are joining the chokers who cant handle this shit.
    It is so funny that most others that say Kershaw and Kenley are chokers are displaying the same character flaw by saying that they cant do this anymore.
    At least Kershaw and Kenley want to come back and fight.
    You guys havent even gotten your uniform dirty and you want to quit?
    That is choking at the biggest stage of your fandom career.

    It would work on Springer, I don't know about the rest. But if you get Springer tossed, then who will make retarded diving errors in CF for us?
