Tim P., MVS should write a story just on Clayton Kershaw to let all the Dodgers fans vent. They deserve it for what they had been put through. I hate to rehash this point about this time every season. The Dodgers WILL NOT win a WS with Kershaw on the team. Two years ago, everyone wanted to blame Yu Davish for the Dodgers losing. It would not have gotten to that point if Kershaw would have won game five with a 7-2 lead. I am listening to sports stations and everyone from host to fans are saying it wasn’t Kershaws’ fault as if they want to give him another chance. That would be like watching the movie Titanic for the tenth time and hoping it won’t hit the iceberg again.
