The Los Angeles Dodgers loss is a San Francisco Giants win

Why does this feel so good?

The Dodgers elimination from the contention does not make the Giants any less eliminated from contention. The Dodgers still finished a whopping eight games ahead of the Giants. The Dodgers won two more 2015 playoff games than the Giants ever will.

And yet?

I feel elated.

Not Dodgers will win the World Series this year. As they did last year, and the year before that. And every year since 1988.

There is something so sweet about this particular Dodger meltdown. The Dodgers cannot blame their loss on any one thing this offseason.
