Yes, a baseball post. Although I would like to point out that for the last couple years or so, I've successfully refrained from writing long and involved posts about baseball - and lord knows I've been tempted. But allow me this one indulgence. Actually, this post isn't really going to be very long. Mainly I just wanted to say:THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT!
If you honestly care to read more, I would recommend a terrific Giants blog called McCovey Chronicles. Their main writer, a fellow named Grant, has produced some of the sharpest, funniest writing I've seen anywhere on the internet, sports or otherwise. The fans who post comments all share the same goofy, sarcastic attitude, and I must have spent at least several eons of my life simply reading those long, crazy threads and smiling (their skill with Photoshop alone never ceases to amaze me). It also helps when your local baseball team features players with nicknames such as The Freak, B-Wheezy, Kung-Fu Panda, Huff Daddy, Jazz Hands, and Dirty Sanchez. And no Barry Bonds. I didn't think I could like a team more than I liked the 2008 Milwaukee Brewers. I was wrong.
Rangers in 4.

I just want to say that I think Buster Posey has one of the greatest baseball names of all time. Also:
GIANTS FUCK YEAH!!!
Buster Posey: he doesn't even need a nickname.
You were watching too!
Yeah, I started watching a few weeks ago when the Giants were playing the Padres. It's true!
So does everyone here feel about draining their bank accounts, pooling the money together, and buying a seat? We play rock, paper, scissors for it.
You can buy a seat all right. On my COUCH.
So wow, you started watching right at the end of the season. Then you've been watching some good shit. What's been your favorite moment so far? That game where the Braves' second basemen made three errors? Cody Ross becoming Babe Ruth? The rally thong?
