    I just finished reading the book about the 2010 Giants and highly recommend it. Out of all the West Coast teams, I enjoy watching the Giants the most and watched the final three innings of last night's game against the Rockies.

    which book was that?

    I had to listen to those turd rockie announcers, but I caught the last two of last night's game and was pleased with the result. loved how morales threw it about 5 feet over ianetta's head :lol:

    Book is called A Band of Misfits, written by some guy of the San Jose Mercury news.

    Swept the Rockies with 2 walk offs over the weekend. I'll take it! Bumgarner and Vogelsong looked real good and Brian Wilson is solid right now. We started this year with a crap load of road games and we are still hanging in there. Makes me happy!

    I'll have to check that book out!

    the sweep was nice. not sure how "solid" BW is :?

    gotta take care of AZ and bochy has some lineup juggling to do. plus, there's the belt factor. he's killing it again in AAA.

    for some reason, the shitty ass cubs always seem to give us problems.

    altho they did lay down nicely, when the giants needed it towards the end of last season :mrgreen:

    1-0, 4-3, 3-2. it's last year, all over again. since losing two one-run games in their opening series, they have won 12 of 13. impressive.....but not good for my heart.

    I like last year all over again! I picked up that book, Band of Misfits. It's pretty damn good so far. Loving the forward by Kuiper. He talks about the "torture".

    Well we got rained out in Chicago but the Rockies and Do**ers both lost!

    Crazy watching Philly get handled by ATL! I have Halladay in my fantasy league and he has 2 CG losses this week.

    GO GIANTS!!

    Giants sweep; D**gers lose (again :lol: ) and they've got a suspect in custody for the beating. A good day :mrgreen:

    Can they please bring Brandon Belt back up?

    Dear lord, he's getting on base nearly 50% of the time in AAA.

    http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb ... pid=474832

    Guess Aubrey Huff is willing to go back to third base to facilitate this, which is where he started his ML career.

    It's painful watching Tejada try and hit.

    Great weekend for the Giants!! The torture continues with these walk off hits, but who cares? A win is a win even if it's not good for the heart :D

    Glad to see they caught one of the guys involved in the Stow case. Sounds like his parole officer knew about him and his whereabouts. :lol: I feel like they would have to have a pretty decent amount of evidence to bring a warrant and SWAT over to the apartment. Hopefully there can be justice in this once and for all.

    typical redsoxfan over reaction! :lol:

    Seriously, I hear ya. SOMEHOW, the Gs are dead last in the NL in runs scored and have a 3.5 game lead :? :problem: . I just wonder what happens when Panda comes back (supposed to be two weeks) and worry about team chemistry. Someone, if not someones, would have to be a little resentful. If Bochy can make it work and Belt can produce, then, yeah, let's do it. Just not sure it will work.
