The Collapse

Monday - December 3, 2023 by: Eddie

Not much to say here. The Dodgers and there 200 million dollar payroll tanked. Though, I admit I look forward to a full season with the new parts in 2013.

Chelsea tanked. Somehow maintained first place in the EPL several weeks. Then reality set in. About the same time that they are on the teetering edge of elimination in the Champions League.

USC Football. Yeah, I've got nothing on that. I'd say "wait will next year", but that doesn't give me confidence.

USC Basketball. Actually looking at the team play, finally, I realized they are much, much improved (and deeper) than last years pathetic showing. Though, once conference play starts, they will be in the middle of the PAC 12--at best. I wonder how long Kevin O'Neill will last at the helm. I don't see him ever taking this team very far.

Well, there have been two bright sides in the Sports World around here.

The LA Galaxy just won their second MLS cup in a row. Though David Beckham has played his last game and Landon Donovan may seek greater challenges (I guess you can't blame him--the MLS is still a second rate league. So, next year does seem a bit disappointing. Though if Robbie Keane comes back, he is able to carry a team on his back.

The Clippers, despite a few setbacks, the look to have a very solid season coming up. Give me a couple months, I want to see them some more. There is no question that they are the most exciting and the most deep team in the league. That sounds weird to say. We're talking about the Clippers!

2013 in the KL Sports world leaves us with many questions. It will be interesting to see what I write next here, because at this point, I have no idea what it will be.
