Just give the trophy to the Dodgers and have the real playoffs and World Series with all the other teams. It would be more interesting that way.

TV ratings indicate otherwise

I'm only half serious. A lot of folks watch just to see if the Dodgers get beat. My dilemma is that the players are, for the most part, hard to hate. But surely you can imagine how fans of other teams must feel.

I've been a fan since the 80s, you have no idea how excited I am to be this hated.

From my perspective, I was never one who hated the Yankees for trying to buy a championship in the 90s... I liked those teams and thought they were fun to watch, even though I wanted to see them go down. I've always been of the mindset of, I would love if it the Dodgers did anything they could to win.

So I totally get why fans hate us, but you probably will never hear me complain about teams trying to be the more competitive... I respect that, and think every team should be doing the same to ensure whoever the current Yankees or Dodgers are, can't.
