World Series here we come!!!

Thrilled as I am I wish my neighbors would tone down the celebrations just a tad. Sleeping babies and all that.

Vamos Gigantes!!!

Jealous! DH went to Game 4 of the playoffs and we have friends going to game 6 of the WS but tickets are now going for $1K each!

I think we're planning on going and hanging out at Momo's or Pete's Tavern during Game 1 or 2, so we can at least be apart of the fever!

Bumbee says "fear the beard". LET'S GO GIANTS, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap!

We were at the WS game where my former love, JT Snow (replaced by Posey) ,rescued Warren Baker. These are the times I miss living in the Bay Area!

wow that's crazy. Dh bought his ticket on Thursday morning and he paid $400. It's his early birthday/xmas present and he's going with his brother. :)

Just saying JT Snow makes me shiver...now that's a good looking man.

We were at a Fall Festival today with trick or treating and the best costume was a 10 year old boy wearing a Giants jersey and the big black beard. AWESOME!

Fear the Beard! Wooooooo!

We saw a LOT of Giants costumes at a Halloween party we went to today, including a couple of mini-Wilsons. FEAR THE BEARD, Texas!

I'm just glad the Yankees aren't playing in the World Series! (Better run and hide from all you NY fans.)

We're outside of the City, but DH grew up in SF.

MoMo's was crazy packed, we're trying to make a reservation now.

Pete's Tavern is a good alternative since it's a little further away but it's still going to be packed!

The last time the Giants went to the World Series we were on our honeymoon in Fiji and this was before T1 lines. We had to get on dial up in a little bure to check the score! LOL!

I LOVE Snow... Sigh, but Buster Posey? He's my new Snow.I used to have a Snow keychain, but it broke off. I heart him.

I rooted for the Rangers to beat the Yankees and now will root for the Giants to beat the Rangers. such is the bizarre hierarchy of affection for non-local teams. FWIW I would have rooted for the Phillies had they been the ones to face the Rangers.

No one I don't think will ever be able to replace JT Snow in my books.

I am happy for the Giants, and can't wait for Wednesday. I haven't been this excited for the Giants in maybe 10 yrs. (they got rid of all of my favorites at the wrong time; the list is long so I will save you the agony) as I have been a hard core Angels fan since the mid 90s.

I have always thought I had the best of both worlds when I got to route for JT Snow first as an Angel, then as a Giant. I remember the Darren Baker incident, jease that was scary.

DH isn't much into baseball, but we both commented that the pitching is going to be great. I love that pitchers, esp. closers are about the quirkiest people on earth. Despite the beard I like Brian Wilson (nice backside).

My dad who has been a life long Dodger fan was even pulling for the Giants.

DS was practically incoherent after the game Saturday night. We banished his t-ball Phillies hat and jersey to the closet when the series first started.

Anyone else think of the Ballad of Badbeard when they see Wilson? Seriously, I appreciate his talent, but the beard, I don't get it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N3HYTgT4OU

Our Father who art in San Francisco...Baseball
be thy game. Thy will be done. The NL Division will be won. On the
field, as well as in the bullpen. Give us this day our bat and glove,
and forgive us for our errors, as we forgive those who home run against
us. Lead us not into defeat, but help us BEAT TEXAS.In the name ...of
...the Fans, Buster Posey and the Giants.!!!!!...Amen.

I love hearing Renee from KMEL, old school announce the starting line-up!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GIANTS!

:yeahthat: I'll always be a Texas gal in heart :D

I had no idea that the Rangers were even in the Finals until they won and I'm from Texas (lived there for 20 years)! :rotflmao: Not a fan of baseball AT ALL, but GO RANGERS!!! :jammin:

10-27-2010, 08:27 PM
Go Giants!! DH is an A's fan but SF has a much more kid-friendly stadium so it's my adopted team. I'll always love the Cardinals (I'm from StL) but I love my team of misfits.

Even my 18 month old is obsessed. Any time she's sees baseball on tv, she says Go Guh uns!

Yeah Giants!!!! That was some game! Might as well give up now, Texas.

City Hall is lit up in bright orange this evening. Pretty much everyone
is in Giants gear. DD's craft project at school today involved decorating their fake beards!:hysterical: And you saw my other post about my neighbor's cat...Giants fever!

Here's a fun celebration song from Michael Franti and Spearhead that my DD enjoyed dancing to tonight:
