The World Series matchup is set, and the Los Angeles Dodgers are hearing the same old song from the haters. As rival fans try to cry foul, Dave Roberts has set them straight. It doesn't matter; everyone outside of Los Angeles has suddenly become a Toronto Blue Jays fan.

Let's forget the fact that we just had a season for the ages, where a mass quantity of teams couldn't determine if they were buyers or sellers at the deadline, and multiple clubs thought to be juggernauts collapsed down the stretch.
