The smallmen once again waste another effort by their starting pitcher and lose
to the San Diego Padres again.

They now fall four games behind the Rockies and are only a game and a half ahead of the Florida Marlins (insert attendance joke here).

1. Just remember

the Giants were 72-90 last year. They weren't expected to be anywhere near where they are right now. So, in essence, they're playing with house money.

2. Not according to you this year
That was last year bub. This year you kept telling us how wonderful the Smallmen are. Remember?? I guess because your douche twin isn't here to remind you, the rest of us should forget.

3. I don't get your logic.
though we were laughed at, myself and cboy were one of the few insisting that the Giants could be contenders, which they are with but 3 weeks to go...if anything that's a feather in both of our caps.

However, that does not change the fact that the Giants have far exceeded the expectations of both the national and Bay Area sports media..

This year has been a resounding success, for it has served notice

The Giants Are Back

5. Dude. Let's face it with Al Davis running one Franchise, the Yorks running another,
Edited on Fri Sep-11-09 01:22 AM by madinmaryland
and the A's are just running without any direction, it's no wonder that cupton is excited! Interestingly in Pittsburgh they have had two of the last three major pro sports championships. When was the last time the Frisco kids could say that?

:shrug:

I think it may have been more than 55 years ago!

:D
