Gonzalez Goes Yard Twice, Dodger Take 2 of 3 From the Reds
Posted on 24 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Perhaps the worst thing that Adrian Gonzalez did was hit a home run in his first at-bat as a Dodger back on August 25th. Sure, his three-run shot on the second pitch he saw into the right field seats was something right out of a movie. But Dodger fans, like myself, expected to see that type of production from him on a daily basis. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't expected to hit a home run every g...

Another Day, Another Loss For the Dodgers
Posted on 22 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Each game these days is like a playoff game for the Dodgers. At the start of the day, they found themselves trailing the St. Louis Cardinals by two games for the final wildcard spot. They've also allowed the Milwaukee Brewers to pass them in the the wildcard standings. But yet, given just how badly these Dodgers have been playing, they still find themselves in the thick of things. So with that ...

The Dodgers slim playoff hopes took another hit Thursday night in the nations capitol. With their 4-1 loss to the Washington Nationals, the Dodgers now find themselves three games out of the second wildcard spot.

Dodgers Running in Place
Posted on 17 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Well that didn't accomplish anything, did it? I looked at this four-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals, leaders of the second wild-card, as the pivotal point in the Dodgers season. I felt this series would decide the Dodgers fate for a potential postseason berth. Well, not exactly. After yesterday's 5-2 loss in 12 innings, the Dodgers are exactly in the same place they were when the se...

Raiders Head East to Take on Miami Dolphins
Posted on 14 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Well week two is now upon us and the Raiders head east to take on rookie quarterback Ryan Tannenhill and the Miami Dolphins at Sun Life Stadium. More importantly for the Raiders, it's a chance to get rid of the disgusting taste that was left in their mouth from their 22-14 loss to the San Diego Chargers in front of the nation on Monday night, where the Raiders special teams embarrassed themselv...

Dodgers Playoffs Hopes Fading Away in Loss to Cardinals
Posted on 14 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Another game, another colossal disappointment. Facing the team that they find themselves chasing for the final wild-card spot, the Dodgers, once again, laid a big, fat egg, falling to the St. Louis Cardinals, 2-1, in game one of a crucial four game series at Chavez Ravine. They now find themselves two full games behind the Cardinals and don't look now, but the Phillies and the Brewers are not t...

The Dodgers Fail (Again) To Gain Ground, Losing 3-2 to the D-Backs
Posted on 13 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Another game, another horrible offensive performance as the Dodgers bats failed them once again in a 3-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Aaron Harang was, well, Aaron Harang, teasing us with a good pitching performance before, ultimately, making crucial mistakes that ended up costing the Dodgers the lead, and then the game. Except for a first inning outburst (two runs these days amount for an...

Raiders Special Teams Not Very Special in 22-14 Loss to the Chargers
Posted on 11 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
Well, the Raider season didn't quite get off to the start they were hoping for in their 22-14 defeat to the San Diego Chargers on Monday night. Out of all the things that may have done them, what would you have guessed? Quarterback Carson Palmer throwing interception after interception? Darren McFadden getting nicked up and not making an impact? The defense getting carved up like a pumpkin by P...

Kershaw-less Dodgers Fall Further Behind
Posted on 10 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
The Dodgers left the bay area in far worse shape than when they arrived Thursday night. In the standings and the medical department. They arrived trailing the Giants by four and a half games. They leave trailing by five and half after losing 4-0 and lost all-world center fielder Matt Kemp and all-world starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw to minor injuries. Both players expect to be in the lineup w...

Dodgers Get Much Needed Win Over Giants
Posted on 9 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
The sun is shining a little bit brighter for the Dodgers after they squeaked out a 3-2 come-from-behind victory over the Giants at AT&T Park. They did it without Matt Kemp, who was held out while receiving an MRI for his ailing shoulder after slamming into the Coors Field wall last week. Tests came back negative revealing inflammation, although it is unknown how long Kemp will be out of the...

Raiders Ready to Rumble Against the Chargers in Monday Night Showdown
Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
It's been a little over nine months since Philip Rivers and the San Diego Chargers ran amok all over the Oakland Coliseum field, spoiling New Years Day for both the Raider players and fans, alike. The Raiders, needing a victory to clinch their first playoff birth since the 2002-2003 season, failed miserably in virtually every aspect of the game, most notably on the defensive end in losing 38-26...

Dodgers Falter Again, Blow Chance To Gain Ground
Posted on 6 Sep 2012 by Simran Reyatt.
It's becoming a quite unsettling trend for the Dodgers, losing again to an inferior team. They also failed to gain any ground in both the wild card and division chase. It's getting quite frustrating to watch them flounder game after game, as they did in their 4-3 loss to the San Diego Padres at Dodger Stadium. Nick Vincent (2-0) picked up the victory while Shawn Tolleson (1-1) took the loss. Aa...
