Ah, September, summer is winding down and the days are cooling off and September 22 is officially the start of fall. Preseason football is over and the regular season will be starting September 06.
Most football fans have already selected their fantasy football teams, if not, they are definitely running out of time before the football season is upon us.
Just like summer, Major League Baseball is also winding down with just a month left before the payoffs and eventually the World Series will be here.
And unless the LA Dodgers can beat the Arizona Diamondbacks and stay in first place, the Dodgers won’t even make it to the playoffs this year, let alone a repeat as the World Series.
The Dodgers had a really good month of July, then with a whole lot of help with some questionable decisions by Dave Roberts and several key players on the DL, August saw the Dodgers drop from 1st place to 3rd place and with the win on the last day of August, they managed to climb over the Rockies to be in second place, one game behind the D-backs.
On August 4 the Dodgers played the Houston Astros, the team the Dodgers lost to in the World Series, and lost to them once again, only this time the score was a mind blowing Dodgers 0 and the Astros 14 and it was a home game for the Dodgers, what a terrible loss for the Dodgers and I think it was a loss for the records.
The LA Angels aren’t doing much better than they did last year, maybe even worse. As we start the month of September, the Angels are in 4th place in their division and 16 games out of first place. Not sure why the Angels can’t seem to win, their roster looks good, and although they have quite a few players on the DL, most of their players appear healthy.
So, why aren’t the Angels winning? Easy question, but without an easy answer. A lot of Angel fans would love to see a new manager and perhaps a shake up in the lineup as well, who knows. Fortunately the owner of the team will have the off-season to figure it out.
With the start of the NFL and Baseball’s world series right around the corner, that’s already a full schedule, however, September is also the start of Basketball’s pre-season. The Lakers first game will be September 30 against Denver. The Clippers first game will also be September 30 against the Sydney Kings.
Let’s not forget hockey either, their per-season also starts this month.
The LA Kings first preseason game will be September 18 against Arizona, and the Anaheim Ducks’ first pre-season game will also be September 18 against San Jose.
In seems that no matter what your favorite sport is, there will probably be at least one game played this month for your enjoyment. www.sportstalkdummies.com
