A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

The Last Day Of The Worst Year

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on December 31, 2020

People are like “Good riddence 2020” and I’m like “Careful what you wish for.” 2021 could EASILY be worse.

Paul lamenting his mark on the world in the last thread, I wouldn’t spend that much time worrying about it. Kids allow you to leave behind some type of genetic imprint but nobody knows who you are after a couple of generations. My friend did a family tree for me and I was struck by all the people in Ireland from 1750 or whatever who are responsible for me being here today. Funny names, too. But, ain’t nobody knows who they are anymore.

Nothing to say today except goodbye 2020. I went to an awesome Super Bowl party with my buddy The Boney One back in February. That was the last time I did something social and wasn’t spending the whole time worrying about this damn virus.

    The Kinks’ message to the world:

    “Here’s wishing you the bluest sky
    And hoping something better comes tomorrow
    Hoping all the verses rhyme
    And the very best of choruses, too
    Follow all the doubt and sadness
    I know that better things are on the way
    Here’s hoping all the days ahead
    Won’t be as bitter as the ones behind you
    Be an optimist instead
    And somehow happiness will find you
    Forget what happened yesterday
    I know that better things are on the way
    It’s really good to see you rocking out
    And having fun
    Living like you’ve just begun
    Accept your life and what it brings
    I hope tomorrow you’ll find better things
    I know tomorrow you’ll find better things
    Here’s wishing you the bluest sky
    And hoping something better comes tomorrow
    Hoping all the verses rhyme
    And the very best of choruses, too
    Follow all the doubt and sadness
    I know that better things are on the way
    I know you’ve got a lot of good things happening up ahead
    The past is gone, it’s all been said
    So here’s to what the future brings
    I know tomorrow you’ll find better things
    I know tomorrow you’ll find better things”

    I have a fairly incredible story of coincidence to share about me, san dawg and Brian sipe. Might not be on the level of san dawg and Chuck’s kids dating. But it’s close. Will post it later

    Juan Hernandez 2 for 2 on turf today winning 3rd at Santa Anita on C Falls gate to wire at 5-1 over 6/5 favorite I’m Leaving You ridden by Joel Rosario.

    • djloo27 said, on December 31, 2020 at 2:05 pm

      Christina Blacker gives out 11-1 firster.
      Too bad she waited till 20 seconds before the gate opened…

      • willedav said, on December 31, 2020 at 2:17 pm

        yeah saw that. Said she had put it on twitter earlier but I guess you had to follow her to get it. She’s pretty sharp, though it didn’t help bettors much here.

    I was at SFO during the Super Bowl last year, waiting to catch my flight(s) back home. A few people were already starting to wear masks. Man, that seems so long ago.

    Oh boy. DJ Loo has done something. Something amazing and spectacular. Will share it with you guys either later tonight or tomorrow!

    I have the 3 horse coming up here at SA on my watch list and I can’t remember why.

  8. Flavor said, on December 31, 2020 at 4:20 pm

    Loo sent me a gift. It doesn’t top the framed Z past performances picture he sent me but it is close. I wonder if anyone can guess what it is? What a glorious gift to end this shitty fucking year. Thank you dude, you are the best.

    Sad for San Jose St. They got stomped.

    The Rockets are wearing blue uniforms. I don’t get that.

  12. Flavor said, on December 31, 2020 at 4:43 pm

    scooped the double, triple and pick 4 at SA. Tyler Baze, baby

    • alleykat69 said, on December 31, 2020 at 7:04 pm

      Is that Russell Baze’s son?
      Made a lot of money off the old man at Bay Meadows 🐎

      • willedav said, on December 31, 2020 at 8:02 pm

        nephew I think Kat.

      • willedav said, on December 31, 2020 at 8:10 pm

        actually russell is his second cousin. Gary who also rode is his uncle.

  13. zumiee said, on December 31, 2020 at 4:49 pm

    Cousins is looking to get his career going again, with the Rockets, after injuries ruined his last two seasons.
    He looks sharp so far.
