At 4:57pm, the World ENDS!

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on October 23, 2010

Or apparently that’s what it will feel like to some of you if we lose today based off the posts yesterday and some emails that I got. I guess I’m with the minority, I just am not gonna be devastated if they don’t make it to the World Series. And it won’t be a choke-job, either. Philly is a very good team, if they can beat Lincecum/Dirrrrrty/Cain successively, more power to them. I am still just too busy enjoying the Hell out of post season baseball to sweat “what if?”

But I will tell you that despite hating them with a passion, I started growing a beard last Saturday. It’s just about grown full in and I WILL be dying it black if/when we make it to the World Series. Flavor doesn’t roll with the phony beard look…….

And if we don’t make it? I just shave this bad boy off and look back on one of the top three baseball seasons I have ever had the pleasure of watching as a Giants fan. Don’t *player hate*, my friends, *dominate* and if that doesn’t work for ya, or you don’t get it, then just go back to worrying about the sky caving in on you later tonight. If there’s a Game 7, instead of worrying about a loss, focus on the rare electricity and the feeling of finality that you get to experience for about 3 hours. You know what? I hope it does go 7……..

DJLoo said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:08 pm

I’m sure this’ll be nice and relaxing…
Billy said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:08 pm

torture
delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:10 pm

I don’t believe this goddamn shit. 5-out save? I can’t fucking think or concentrate straight.
I can’t handle this. It’s too much, it’s just too goddamn much. C’mon B-Wheezy, close the door.
Bozo said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:10 pm

OK – we knew this year would be dirty and even filthy, now it’s time to get nasty.
alleykat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:11 pm

OMG IT’s meant to be!!!!!!
max808 said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:11 pm

Dodger Blonde said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:12 pm

Fuck yes! We’re not the only cocksuckers who hit inning-ending GIDP.
Bozo said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:12 pm

That’s what I’m talking about!!!!!
JBat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:12 pm

Yesssssss!!!
JBat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:13 pm

Damn. I thought that was headed into right field. 3 pitches, two outs. That makes that 5 out save a hell of a lot easier.
bigSarge said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:13 pm

Beeeyooteeful
freshtodef80 said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:13 pm

Geico Time!
alleykat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:14 pm

God i Love this Team!!!!!!!!!! Torture and All!!!!!!!!
delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:14 pm

I thought for sure that ball was ticketed to RF for a game-tying RBI single. Game of inches.
An extra run or two wouldn’t hurt.
willied said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:15 pm

Where the fucking Hawaiian flying off to?
Flavor said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:15 pm

Just get thru the top of the 9th quickly and bee-weezy ends this…
bigSarge said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:15 pm

What in the hell was he swingning at?
willied said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:17 pm

Beauty of a bunt for the snarrk, right past the mound. Made me think of Keith Olbermann, when he used to say “Therrrrre not gonna get him!”
- snarkk said, on October 23, 2010 at 10:46 pm
  
  Goddam right. That was a hard on moment…
max808 said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:18 pm

I wouldn’t mind a run or two flav
delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:19 pm

Great bunt by Torres, but goddamn. Sliding into first should be outlawed. Nice going little runt. Huff, keep it going please.
DJLoo said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:21 pm

This game is crazy enough for Wilson to clear the bases…
delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:21 pm

Wilson needs to pull the old Rudi Stein, take one from the team. Buttermaker would be proud.
- delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:24 pm
  
  that 1-0 pitch was perfect for leaning in and getting hit. Shit. OK, 3 outs to go.
  I’m a fucking wreck.
alleykat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:22 pm

No shit it was a decoy Mc Stupid Ass.Like were gonna pull the best closer in baseball.

alleykat said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:27 pm

delmardennis said, on October 23, 2010 at 8:31 pm
