Agon believes Dodgers better than Giants

they are

we win the division by 10+ games next year, fuck the having to come back in June bullshit and then we see what happens in October

 

stfu AGon

 

:bigdaddy:

 

And that is why you lost.
"They just played better in the playoffs"???!!! Well that happens to all that matters idiot.

 

Wow...profundity by Agon. We didn't know any of that. Enlightening.
He's entitled to his opinion though. And he certainly did his job offensively and defensively with the Dodgers.
It's still jaw dropping how we lost the NLDS; that will never change. The Giants were in a good spot to keep going, as we can't solve the post season, whether we get through the Cards or not.
Top FO guys and guys with their doctorate aren't going to make a fart of difference in the end, no matter how much BS moneyball bucks they save by clever, slick, drooled over on this site signings.
Not if we get to the post again, and the same incredible things happen again. It won't fucking matter one bit.
And I still ask what is all this newly acquired wisdom thinking when they leave a bleeding wound like Mattingly to lead them?
I guess they're so brilliant, it's beyond most comprehensions.

 

He also believes it's all part of gods plan and has PS 27:1. inscribed on all his bats.

 

The Dodgers are better than the Giants; baseball just sucks.

 

I mean.... we're more talented and over a large sample-size outperformed them. So, yes. But... we also didn't win the World Series.... so not so much.

 

Detroit vs Dodgers would have at lest felt like a real World Series.

 

it's high time these Dodger fuckers humble themselves. and AGon's supposed to be a leader. when i see something like this from a supposed leader, i can't help but feel like this group will never get it. i see these comments and i feel like AGon's saying " sign me up for another season like this one! the division title! " fuck that noise.

it should not feel good to see the SFaGs win it all. it should both feel bad and taste bad. you should respect the fact that their group has done it 3 times and you should not feel like a great team after having watched them do it 3 times. save that bullshit for somebody else, AGon. i have no fucks to give about a division title..more than half the NL West is pathetic as it is. it's not like they won the central. so what if you played better against the West bums?..definitely weren't good enough to be talkin like this. i know that.

 

Exactly.
I feel the same way I felt as I did with the Lakers vs. the Celtics in the 80's. I still remember the 84 series. I went into that knowing the Lakers were the better team. But the Celtics had still never lost a series to the Lakers in their History at that point. Game 1 went to the Lakers in Boston Garden. Game 2, the Lakers lead by 2 with the ball and less than 20 seconds to play. About to take a 2-0 series lead on the road and a stranglehold on the series. Worthy has an incredibly bad pass, Celtics tie the game and send it to OT where they win. Game 3, Lakers slaughter the Celtics at the Forum. Game 4, Lakers lead late, going on another typical Showtime Laker run. Rambis going for a breakaway layup and Kevin McHale makes the point of no more layups by clotheslining Rambis. It would be a flagrant foul in today's game, but it sent a message. The message to the Lakers was that the Celtics were tougher than them. Celtics again tied the game, sent it to OT where they won again. So a series that should have been a 4 game sweep imo, was tied at 2-2.
Remaining games of the series played out according to home court, and the Lakers lost 4-3 to a Celtic team that I knew was inferior but which I also knew was tougher in crunch time than the Lakers were.
Following year, same teams meet again. Lakers are slaughtered in Game 1 in the Memorial Day massacre. And I am thinking is this going to happen again? But that Laker team learned the toughness required in playoff basketball and finally beat the Celtics in a series
It is what the Dodgers need to do. It isn't all about talent in the playoffs. It requires a mental toughness that they don't have at this point. Ask Bumgarner about it, who goes from being a very good pitcher in the regular season to ridiculous in the playoffs, allowing 1 run in 37 World Series innings. Ask Mariano Rivera about it, who while still the greatest reliever ever, still manages to raise his game in the playoffs, lowering his era from 2.21 in the regular season to 0.70 in the playoffs.
Statements that we are better don't sit well with me, because we are not. Get to the postseason and play better when it really counts and then talk to me

 

Ask Sandoval, who had mediocre stats in the regular season, and is out of control in the playoffs....and in the WS-all of 'em.
The Dodgers are the exact opposite; they have best in the ML in ERA, RBIs and SBs, maybe the MVP, best no.2 starter in BB, phenom Cuban sophomore players, etc., and turn into a gelatinous mass in the end in the post season. Piles of shit everywhere.
That's why the WCII system could spell the end of teams who tough it out and labor and do their job successfully all season long and win whatever.
And a team, theoretically playing a little better than average, can get hot, and their players get into post season mode (like the Giants, certainly), and win it all.
Somehow, it's wrong. It's too diluted. It's almost like "do we try and win this whole thing, or do we stay close and try to peak late"?
Too much like basketball now...

 

Because you won the division and took the season series 10-9?
Over a large sample size they have 3 titles in 5 years and the dodgers haven't been to a WS since 88.

 

You don't need to rub it in, guy.

 

the leadership on this team is fucked in the head. good luck, Farhan.
