Mostly L.A. Team(s) Notes
It is “ridiculously” early in the winter sports seasons and “mucho” time and games remain in “pig,” however, some cities and their current major sports league notes will follow.
Cue Randy Newman, I still “Love L.A”–the song, the memories, but no longer the teams, but oh have those teams achieved and do they loom!
Of course, the Dodgers repeated as baseball title winners becoming just the eighth franchise to do so and in winning a third “5” year crown, they joined the Yankees, who have 7 such, including one 5 and two 4’s and the currently stagnant Cardinals of St. Loo (they won titles in ’26,’46 and 2006 and also in ’34, ’44 and ’64) as teams with at least 3 crowns in a same # year which, (a rhyme) is an obscure note.
Meanwhile, the football L.A. Rams after “ramming” (pun intended) the still “div” leading Tampa Bay Bucs in a “King—night tilt yesterday, now lead the NFC with a (9-2) mark but are just one “math game” ahead of (8-3) Sea (rhyme) while (7-4) SF a TD fave vs (6-5) Carolina (they trail T.B. by a half game going into tonight’s game.
Again, so early in both basketball and the N.H.L. , but note the (12-4) Lakers, (9-4) sans another “would be” king, in his record 23rd season, wearing the # but Leb you ain’t close to being as great as that other “23,” (Mr. Jordan), however you have had a remarkable career and you/the Lakers, also loom.
Later this week some “status/perspective” with Denver, Detroit, Houston and Indiana teams including college sports, where applicable.
