Who cares what that fat * thinks.

Who cares what that fat fu** thinks.

He also said there's an asterisk on the 2020 title. THoughts?

To be fair Kendrick Perkins wouldnt be the guy I'd go to for top level NBA analysis.

Tampa Bay Rays have taken a 3-0 Series lead against the Astros. Given their payroll, they’re such a well run club.

 

[moomba]

If the Dodgers win their first world series in nearly 40 years and it comes with a * then that's fine with me.

 

[moomba]

This is better.

 

[moomba]

Wow. 11-0 still not out of the 1st.

[moomba]

Braves turn for a big inning.

Can't see anything but a Braves series win from here.

 

[RPCB]

Holy crap, Astros about to make the series 3-3. I am happy that I never checked the odds to see what an Astros series win would pay out at 3-0 down, I was thinking about it.

 

[moomba]

Started to look awfully like 3 of the other 4 games in the season.

Then the Betts catch and the out at third and you could sense a momentum swing.

Much better after that, and still alive.

TB Rays have won Game 7. Dodgers or Braves await them.

 

[moomba]

Awesome. Dodgers through.

What a tough, competitive series. Looks like no sleep for me for another week.

 

[moomba]

1-0 series lead to the Dodgers, fairly comfortable first game. Great to see Kershaw with another strong post season start.

 

[moomba]

All tied up. Getting anything out of that game just never looked likely.

Day off, and then a big game 3.

 

[RPCB]

OMG!!! WTF was that?

What an end to that World Series game.

 

[moomba]

FFS. :/

 

[moomba]

Needed that win after the game before. 1 more needed.

 

[moomba]

Dodgers win.

Bit bizarre, Dodgers 3B gets a positive Covid result mid game gets taken out of the game in the 8th to isolate.

Confirmed to be Justin Turner.

Oh haha, didn’t see that you wrote “3B”.

'Murica.

MLB knew in the 2nd innings he tested positive.

 

[RPCB]

MLB knew in the 2nd innings he tested positive.

So Justin Turner is tested yesterday and most likely before the game at some point during the afternoon since it’s a night game. During the second inning tonight, those results came back as inconclusive. A good 30+ hours have passed.

In the meantime, Justin Turner is tested again during the day (as all players would be tested every day), those tests “had just arrived” and were run off the back of the inconclusive test and amazingly there is very little turnaround between the second when they are run to the seventh inning to get a result.

Superbly done by all involved.
