Me too posts above I am happy the Dodgers won and I am rooting for them to win it all. But the best news of the night along with the Dodgers winning was Chris Taylor, who played CF last night, and was named co MVP of the series along with Turner. Taylor is a terrific all around athlete and if the Yankees get in with my long time favorite Brett Gardner we will be looking at a WS that features two white lead off hitters. That would be swell. So I hope the Yankees win because of that.

Enrique Hernandez goes deep three times tonight as the Dodgers destroy the Cubs 11-1 to make it to the World Series.

Hard to watch being a lifetime Cubs fan. Hopefully this offseason they get whiter and more talented.

Well, it may not be an LA - NY World Series after all. Houston up 4-0 at the top of the 6th in game 7.

So how many DWF's think that this guy is "Mexican" because of his name and not white? I'll bet plenty.

It's a shame the DWF's don't know the difference between White vs mestizo/indio/etc.....I wonder what went through their heads with all the White Puerto Ricans they saw this past week. From Enrique Hernandez performance in the post season to descendant of Puerto Rican family WR Braxton Berrios leading the undefeated Canes in every seasonal receiving category and punt returns to even JJ Barea contributing in limited action with 19 points, 5 assist, and 3 rebounds. Not to mention the White Puerto Ricans that spoke against the crooked commies in the island which always tend to be mestizo, indian, or mulato looking.

The Fox preview for the World Series had Altuve for the Astros and Puig for the Dodgers featured. Taylor, Turner or Kershaw would of been more appropriate choices but they went with Puig - the most overrated player of the past 5 years.

I'm not sure how I feel about watching the Dodgers win the WS. It wouldn't be a problem if their manager wasn't black. If the Dodgers win WS the media will give all credit to their manager as some kind of signal we need more black players and black managers in mlb.

Astros even the series 1-1. Springer the hero for the Astros with a 2 run HR. Altuve also went deep. Bregman continued having a great post season went 2-6, D and RBI. Verlander no decision.
For LA, Seager, Joc Pedrerson, and Culberson along with Puig hit HR's, but they lose 7-6.
Series now heads to Houston and the Dodgers need at least one win there to bring it back to LA.

Sorry, I have not been following this. I take it the Dodgers are the CF favorite in the WS?

Yes. Despite a couple more non-white pitchers, the Dodgers have been starting 8 whites in all three games, to go along with all of their bench being white in regards to outfield players.

I usually don't type my disagreement with a post, but I have to this time. Yes, Roberts is black/Japanese, but the difference between the two teams is striking. Buck was criticizing Roberts for his management of pitchers last game. I'm sorry, but if you're not going to cheer for the whitest team in baseball by far, then go ahead. What do you think is going to happen in the media if the predominately Latino Astros win the World Series? I think it's going to be a bit worse than Roberts winning as manager.

I agree JL, however, the Astros do have a lot of white players, but only the pitchers, Kuechel and Verlander are considered major stars. Bregman, a potential superstar, has been big during the playoffs. While McCann and Redick have contributed as well. When Gattis starts the Astros are 5 of 9 white starters.
The Dodgers are definitely the team to cheer for with several major stars and white players in key positions; Taylor in CF, Seager at SS, Turner at 3B, and ROY Bellinger at 1B. Not to mention the best regular season pitcher in baseball over the last 6-7 years in Clayton Kershaw.
Really would like Kershaw to get a WS ring to go along with his 3 Cy Young Awards!

I hope the Dodgers can win tonight to even the series at two games a piece. At some point, the home field winning streak for the Astros must come to an end.

Also, did you see Yuli Gurriel's Japanese/Asian impression after he hit his home run off of Darvish? If not, here it is. Pretty immature, especially for a 33 year old. I bet the Dodgers acquired quite a few more Japanese and Asian fans after that.

Darvish is half Japanese, half Iranian and probably has an IQ 30 points higher than Yuli.

Also, I liked Darvish's response:
"I feel like, of course, Houston has Asian fans and Japanese fans, and Asian fans live all over the place," Darvish said. "And acting like that, it's just disrespectful to people around the world, to the Houston organization. It's not OK.

"Including him and I, nobody's perfect. Everybody's different. We've just got to learn from it. He made a mistake, and we've just got to learn from it. We are all human beings. It's just learn from it, and we've got to move forward."


Compare that response to black players that get offended and scream "racist!" in almost any situation and belabor the issue for days, weeks, months, years, or even decades on end. Even with some (the usual suspects) saying the Houston Texans owner's statement "can't have the inmates running the prison" was racist. I'm still trying to figure out what was actually "racist" in that statement...was the "n-word" used? No. Did he say "black players"? No. It was probably a poor expression to use in that setting, but nonetheless an accurate one. When blacks hear or see the word "inmates" do they instinctively think of themselves or other blacks in general so that's why they considered it racist? The only actual racism in any of this is the preponderance of black players over White players on his squad.

I saw that that Gurriel is going to be suspended 5 games in 2018. However he is still allowed to play in the world series - what a joke and tepid response from the MLB. If a white player made such a gesture he would be ostracized from the league.

The double standards continue. This stuff would be 24/7 headlines of course if he were White. His career would be entirely over. The team may have even faced fines for not providing and fostering a "hate-free" environment. But since he's not, a slap on the wrist...to be enforced next year. What a joke. Is baseball next for the Marxist anti-White revolution? Maybe so.

On another note, I hate to admit it but the Dodgers could easily be down 0-3 in the series. They have made several untimely errors, bad throws, sub-par at bats, closers not closing, bad decisions in general. Houston is just outplaying them right now. It ain't going good so far. They better get it together and right quick...

Dodgers go up 3-1 in the 9th!

Edit: And now its 6-1 with the three run dinger by Petersen! Looks like this game is over! Dodgers will tie the series 2-2!

With 8 White starters, are the Dodgers the whitest team in baseball? If so, this would really be a great year to have New England as Super Bowl champs and the Dodgers win the WS!
