"Don't start talking smack just yet....your rangers haven't proven they can beat our Giants....interleague play this year ...Giants won both games....and the only thing worse then a smack talking phillies fan (however I haven't heard them lately..lol) is a "jump on the band wagon" rangers fan!

From a Life Long Giants Daddy - GO GIGANTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NJFemmie · 10-25-2010, 10:39 AM

I'm not a baseball fan - but more importantly, I'm not a Phillies fan at all, so quite frankly, I'm happy for the Giants.

What sucks worse than anything, is that I am always offered free tickets to various types of Philly games. I don't even go to the games for free.

ppffttt

(New York Yankee fan if I have to pick any baseball team..... )

I wasn't born in Dallas, so I can't claim to be a lifelong Rangers fan. (I'm not sure they've even been around that long anyway!)

But I'm proud of them and Nolan Ryan.......and I'll jump on HIS bandwagon any day. WITH my pompoms!

Hmph.

Way back when, I said I would root for whoever beat the Yankees - (btw its nothing personal. As a member of Red Sox Nation, I am genetically programmed to think this way

As I try to be true to my word, I am going to root for the Rangers. But I wont be disappointed regardless of who wins cuz I am proud of both of these teams.

Who thought, way back in April, that either would get this far? The Rangers are under new baseball people ownership and have never won or I believe been to a WS. The Giants are a rejuvenated, remade team who havent won a WS since The Last Supper. Neither seems to have well known superstars but both have very scrappy, young players, playing exceptional ball who just don't know the meaning of quit. Now THATS BASEBALL!

I'm done.

They should consider playing games 1 and 2 on Wednesday as a double header, 'cause the rain's coming back on Thursday and sticking around for a few days.

This is what happens when they let baseball season extend in to winter, instead of playing in October like they're supposed to.

Yup! SO BASEBALL!! And I love it that both teams are without super stars that always get the press. And they play as a team because of this, I think. These guys remind me of the game of long ago. Yet, look at all the young talent! LOL.. Yes, scrappers!

Mostly, I just want to enjoy watching the WS and I think these two teams will give us a good series. Can't wait!!! I am going to try and get a peek at ATT&T Park and take a pic! And i sure hope the rains we had for a few days doesn't return! yeah, Msdemeanor is right- should not be played so late in October/November!

I haven't been this excited for a WS in a long time! I do like to see the Red Sox play in it and like the rivalry with the Yankees! Yanno- that is LONG time rivalry!! Here, in CA, the giants and Dodgers are big rivals in the national League- the Southern vs. Northern California baseball rivalry. yikes, i'm a national League fan i9n the main.C

Like I explained to you today...they were the Washington Senators from 1961 to 1971 when they came to Texas ....and here's another bit of information...the rangers have a 9 game losing streak at AT&T Park...make it 11 game losing streak against the Giants if you go back to Candlestick days....chew on that ...girl...LOL LETS GO GIANTS!!!

The Baseball Commissioner put in a call to Mother Nature. The rains have been pushed back to Friday.

AH!!! Way KEWL!!!

I'm SOOOOOO excited about the World Series! Just what I needed.... have a lot going on and stressed. So, I am kind of needing a Baseball Zen thang! Hoping one of my Great Nephews that lives in San Jose now will come up for a visit and watch with me. He used to pitch in school. Plus, my Frog Dog wants to be the Giants short-stop eventually... very serious about getting to those ground balls... 'course, he doesn't have far to go from the ground to his paws.....

This is fun having a basebal thread during the World Series! I always thought it was just you and the Mister that was into it!

but... but... Diva seems to be a fan of baseball, complete with pom-poms! Kobe is into it.... KEWL!!
