    Only thing I would say Slayer is that the Dodgers are a real good team, so it wasn’t like they were beat by a bunch of bums.

    Braves have a very good young team. If their pitching stays healthy? Will be a perennial contender. But they just do not have a 1 thru 9 lineup like the Dodgers do. Dodgers are like the 90's and early 2000 Bombers. No lead is ever safe against them. Braves pitching all around is so good, and the Dodgers grinded them down until they eventually broke thru. So tough to face professional hitters like that in a best-of-7 series

    There baserunning blunder in the early innings didn’t help the cause.

    That was one of the worst base running mistakes I’ve seen in a playoff game.

    It's disappointing for sure but not devastating.
    They are on the way up, good young hitters, veteran leader like Freeman.

    The big picture is the Braves organization is on an upward trend.

    Good one.
    Cowboys are 3 and 7 in the 7 years they've made the playoffs in the past 20 years.
    Which means they've failed for 13 seasons in the past 20.

    Braves have been to the post season 11 times in the past 20 seasons.

    Both teams have never won a ring in the past 20 years.

    The Cowboys are the worst is the correct answer.
    Braves have failed the least of the two,

    I dont think there is much difference between the teams it just the braves lack composure at key moments of the games

    The baserunning error is something you wouldn't see in A ball.

    Today's mlb players are fukking retards compared to the men that played before them. And thank you Ron Washington at 3rd base coach...get your affirmative action hire the fukk outta here you cokehead.

    Dodgers not fukking around this year. It's a straight up lunch pale crew. I think Betts the only black dude they have, rest of team is blue collar gamers, most home grown and I think CK is going to have a phenomenal WS.

    Roberts will get his ring because Atlanta played baseball with a minor league mentality and a PC hire at 3rd base coach.
