The NL West should not even be affiliated with the MLB. College teams could beat teams like the Dodgers, Giants, and Rockies who all happen to be below .500. It will barely take the winner of the NL West any more then 85 Games to solidify a seat in the playoffs. At this rate the Cubs, Phillies, and even possibly the Cardinals would kill the Dodgers. The Dodgers have a bunch of big names but low averages. The front office pays big bucks to get a little above a .200 batting average while they play, but spend half of the season in bed because they are injured. There is no way that Andrew Jones, Nomar, Furcal, and, oh yeah the dodgers have Jason Schmitt, could take them to the promise land! When was the last time Schmitt pitched? The Dodgers will not make it past the first round and that’s even if they can make it.

Ok. Ronny Turiaf is known for his energy on the BENCH! He isn't even known for his scoring, assitsts, or even his boards. It is completely selfish of Ronny Turiaf to pick the money over his teammates that made it to the championship last year. The Warriors have Maggette which is a verbal agreement, and a huge list of Restricted and Unrestricted free-agents. The Warriors don't even know what direction they are going in, while the Lakers are clearly headed to have a parade next year on Figueroa with Baby Bynum coming back, and possibly some key Veterans who are attracted to the fact that we made it to game six without our arguably third or fourth best player in Bynum. And one more thing, everyone forgot that Kobe was playing with half a hand. TURIAF GIVE ME A BREAK! You are nothing special.
