This is such a bummer. I get that the Blue Jays are a division rival, but I've never really hated them like the Yankees or even Rays. It would have been a feel good story.

I saw somebody say that wanting the Dodgers to win was like rooting for Amazon over your local record store. Yes, the Dodgers are smart and a well-run organization, but the spending is out of control and I hate the deferred money bs. They also just tied us for 3rd in total WS wins.

If I were a Blue Jays fan, I'd be so depressed. I guess we as Celtics fans felt something similar back in 2010, but at least we had just won in 2008. It's been 32 years for the Blue Jays and I can't imagine they'll have another shot any time soon. So devastating.

I was kind of torn about who I wanted to win myself...I wanted the Blue Jays to win because it's been so long since they won one, and they're a pretty likeable team overall. Plus I have a lot of Canadian friends  :police: But on the other hand, I really like Ohtani and Yamamoto. I guess I'm happy and sad no matter what  :angel:
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

I'll always root for Mookie.  I'm glad he got yet another one.  And, Ohtani is my son's favorite player, so pulling for the Dodgers was easy for me.

I suspect the anticipated lockout due to a Dodger repeat is pretty much a sure thing now
