One more win and the Giants are finally back in the playoffs! Woohoo! What a great story this is becoming....Pat Burrell coming home to the bay area and has re-energized his career. Rookie Buster Posey having a monster year. Aubrey Huff the best pick in the off season. Sanchez and Fontenot along with Uribe and Sandoval platooning very well. Torres for MVP. Lincecum and Cain...nuff said :).
Congratulations to Jerry Rice...No. 80 is now retired in SF. And what an entourage he had on that day....Joe Montana, Steve Young, Eddie DeBartolo....if only Bill Walsh was still around I'm sure he would have been there as well.
Congrats to the Seattle Storm for winning the WNBA finals! I'd consider this a win for the city after it lost the Sonics but found a way to keep the Storm in town (thanks to a group of local gals who bought the team). The tag team that is Sue Bird and Lauren Jackson is really fun to watch and I'd agree with the journalists who saw flashes of that Malone-Stockton pick and roll. It's a bit sad that the WNBA doesn't get enough attention, but just take a look at Sue Bird's million dollar smile and you can feel the sunshine from miles away ;).
Uuuuu-ribe! Apparently this is not a new chant for Giants fans....from what I've read, it was once chanted for Jose Uribe...who happens to be related to current Juan Uribe. He's done in both recent games against the Dodgers....both on breaking balls that he wacked into the night :).
