From this point forward, any and all Giants-bashing hereabouts will be treated as blatant homophobia. That is all. :-)

1. Thanks for the link

I recommended the thread.

:applause:

2. I don't bash the Gnats because I'm a homophobe, in fact I am the proud parent of a gay daughter.

I bash the Gnats because I am now, and have always been, a Dodger Fan.

4. I've been a Dodgers fan since 1965

But I stopped hating the Giants 20 years ago.

8. Awwww, I don't HATE the Gnats, in fact, when Barry was still playing, I never missed

a chance to sit in left field when he came to Dodger Stadium. Heady days...

Sometime I'll have to relate the story of the baseball Jeff Kent threw me at a Cubs/Dodgers game in Chicago, and how Frank McCourt got him to sign it for me during the last home game of the season a few years ago, on the day Nomar hit the walk-off grand slam to end the game. The highlight of my life as a Dodger fan, slightly eclipsing the day I got to go to a World Series game and saw Joe Ferguson throw out Sal Bando at the plate from right center field.

[madinmaryland]

[joeybee12]

[madinmaryland]

13. Wonder what the screen name will be this time?

"PittsburghPiratesFan2009"

:rofl:

[joeybee12]

14. Hee-hee!

Yeah, he's been a fan of just about every other team, so the Pirates are due!

[madinmaryland]

15. Watch out, though, he could show up as "BelicheckBradyFan2009"

Either that or "trumad4"

:hide:

3. Barry Bonds is back!!!!

(you knew this one was coming)

7. Another first: Giants were the first MLB team to hire a woman public address announcer

Sherry Davis -- 1993.

9. That's a whole lot better than Justice Sotomayor thowing out the 1st pitch this Saturday...

at Yanquis Stadium.

She'll have to recuse herself when the next Yankees case appears before the Supreme Court.
