Post-World Series Puke Thread

From Dusty Baker:

Request a random bitterness thread, please.

Personally I'm vacillating between indifference and not giving a crap. Purge away!

This is worse than El Paso salsa.

Josh S. said...

I was on a conference call with a Giants fan this morning. Hooray!

(sighs)

Orel said...

Much worse.

Nostradamus said...

Those fuckers...

(still HATES)

MR.F said...

My co-workers are giving me shit.

(cries)

Orel said...

STAY STRONG MR. F

Paul said...

As I said before the romantics of being a tortured loser for the sf giants is over


They are just another team with one less championship than the Marlins and as many as the D backs.

Alex said...

Paul, I've read this blog for a couple seasons and dont post. That's the most comforting thing i've read since the ish hit the fan. Thanks...

Orel said...

It happened to Red Sox fans. Instead of being tortured and insufferable, now they're just insufferable.

(berates) SF co-workers

Eric Karros said...

I was really upset until I remembered Rihanna is happy.

Josh S. said...

...says the guy with the Rihanna avatar.

Shawn Green said...

I still has a sad.

Josh S. said...

I mentioned "The Rivalry Rebooted" last night. While I'm not dismissing the hate that has come before, I'm looking forward to new, fresh, exciting ways to hate them in the future. The teams are now mirror images of each other (as far as WS titles go), as all good arch-enemies should be.

QuadSevens said...

I predict lots more fighting in the bleachers next season during the Gints/Doyers series.

I'm extremely thankful that I don't work with any SF fans.

I don't take threats lightly, Mr F.

Josh S. said...

Y'know, they never did sacrifice that Son.

The Giants have a title and Lasorda lives on to not post.

MR.F said...

Thank you. I'm sorry for overreacting.

(hugs?)

karen said...

It's only one trophy in 52 years. They should be embarassed.

Dear Rip Van Winkle:

It was sure nice hanging out with you the past month. Got caught up on much needed sleep.

Just wondering, did anything interesting happen during the past three weeks? I'm feeling kind a funny. My spider sense is tingling. Maybe it was just a bad dream.

I think I'm going to go back to sleep.

spank said...

I have not forgotten about that sacrifice either. I can't wait till Saxy gets the ax. I know it was you that deleted my comments, Fredo. Just bullshitting about the comments. Not the ax though.

Wicks said...

Good news we just picked up the option on Scotty Pods all he has to do is accept and the NL West will be ours again!!!! Or not.................

spank said...

You should not have picked so many players from the Timberwolves,MrF.

MR.F said...

But I needed point guards!!

Josh S. said...

We need to introduce Scotty P to Cody Ross's crossroads demon.

Josh S. said...

^That was pretty much just for MLASC.

Josh S. said...

In all seriousness, the Dodgers saying "Yes, we definitely want Podsednik back if he'll have us!" does not inspire confidence in next year. (Even though I became one of his staunchest defenders for a while there.)

But hey, TWITTER TUESDAY IS BACK!!! Woooo!!! Free Manny Bobbleheads and AC/DC CDs!!!!

Orel said...

@MRF "My fantasy basketball team officially sucks balls."

See, that's your problem right there. They're supposed to dribble them.

rbnlaw said...

I feel almost as bad as I did when Fox (mis)owned the Dodgers.

Waiting for the equivalent of the Piazza/Bonilla/Sheffield trade to blow this team to hell and back. As much as I liked Pods, he's no answer in left.

*wishes for the miracle that will bring Carl Crawford*

Loney Fan said...

Just got back from a cruise where I was stuck with hundreds of Giants fans. It. Was. Awful. I am scarred for life.

Orel said...

Hell Cruise

Josh S. said...

Didn't Meg Whitman promise to destroy San Francisco or something if she won? I was only half paying attention to her ads.

MR.F said...

I'm sorry Loney Fan.

Paul said...

I hate giant fans but I really hate these giant fans who are Lakers fans. It really gets me angry.

@Alex

No problem. It will be a tough next 12 months or so. We will hear World Champion giants even in Sept when they are 8 games out.

I keep thinking of the idiot giant fan in April who claimed he couldn't wear his giant hat because he would get shot. Then proceeded to get drunk off three beers and taunt the crowd and yell first place.

Man he probably exploded last night

Shawn Green said...

I heartily enjoyed the reference, Josh.

Josh S. said...

I will enjoy watching them: a) make sure they keep all the same guys in place for next year, and b) lose 100 games when those same guys don't play miles over their heads anymore.

MeanieBreanie said...

This is one bad hangover that just won't go away.

(cries)

MR.F said...

I still feel completely terrible.

MeanieBreanie said...

Mr. F, your misery is shared.

Did you know "dammit I'm mad" spelled backwards is "dammit I'm mad"? That pretty well sums up the day.

Josh S. said...

Pat Kneecancer went 0 for 13 with 11 strikeouts. That has to make Fred'S Brim crack a tiny smile.

Nostradamus said...

Yup, still sucks.

spank said...

Next request:

Booze for our Sorrows Thread


(cries)

Unknown said...

Leave it to Giants fans....

Fred's Brim said...

I didn't realize Maryland fans were also Giant fans. That explains a lot

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Awful quiet in here.

Nostradamus said...

Can't imagine why…

Paul said...

I voted Neeebs for Senate!!

The Jolly Rancher tax is a brilliant idea!

NicJ said...

No Election night GT?

DB can be our political pundit and work the magic board.

NicJ said...

No taxation without Green Applesentation!!

NicJ said...

brown and whitman are in a dead heat with 1% of the vote in

For some reason my write in vote for Tommy Lasorda is not showing up.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I voted for Kodos.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Pot Prop is losing 51 to 49, according to CNN. All those bakeries and 7-11s must be crushed.

NicJ said...

im guessing there will be a late push for prop 19. Not like marijuana users to rush out to the polls.

NicJ said...

when can we get the Prop to get the gints to move back to NY on the ballot.

Prop GTFO

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I think Gavin Newsom was running on that platform.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

What's the point of saying every vote counts when everybody just assumes someone won after a small fraction of the precincts have been reported?

NicJ said...

where the hell is DB?

must be out at his tea party rally.

NicJ said...

for a second there i thought i was watching a replay of the Gints World Series celebration until i realized i was just watching fox news.


HAYOOOOOOO

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I think he's in an alcohol-induced coma.

NicJ said...

dont they always?

NicJ said...

So Scotty Pods got his offer? Couldnt Frank have at least BS'd us a little about being in the running for Crawford?

NicJ said...

Kobe is on muthafuckin fire.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Brown and Whitman are only separated by a couple thousand votes so far, per CNN.

Also, Odom has a +25.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Now it's a +29. AI must want whatever it was LO got his hands on in Istanbul.

NicJ said...

John Boehner is crying at his acceptance speech.

pussy.

spank said...

Will they be serving Green Tea at this tea party?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

CNN says Fiorina and Boxer are in a dead heat.

Josh S. said...

KCAL (who takes orders from CBS) declared Boxer the winner.

Josh S. said...

Aw man, I wanted my free parking at state parks. People are so cheap.

spank said...

Now they say Jerry Brown won with only 10% of votes counted.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

CNN says Boxer has a lead of slightly more than 3000 votes.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

CNN also says just over a quarter of precincts are reporting. How the hell can anyone tell who's going to win?

spank said...

HuffPo has Boxer ahead by 105,000 votes.

Josh S. said...

Nobody gets crushed in an election anymore.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Brian Williams says the governor's race is "too early to call." I officially am in love with Brian Williams.

FIGHT THE POWER, BRIAN!

spank said...

Who could have predicted Alvin Greene losing his election?!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

NBC says Boxer will win. Haven't seen the numbers yet.

NicJ said...

Boxer has a punchers chance.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

German Shepherd failed to pick up steam.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Boxer has about 17,000 more votes, but with just %28 of precincts reporting I certainly would not call this race just yet.

NicJ said...

i think they factor in demographics. More rural areas typically get counted first. Those area's tend to lean red. Metro area's tend to lean a little more blue and get counted later. The polls also close later there.

NicJ said...

man this laker game is a blowout.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I still prefer waiting until every vote has been counted.

NicJ said...

Meh, the news business is all about being first.

MR.F said...

Matt Barnes will kill you!

And then salute you.

spank said...

Even after all the votes are counted you can't be to sure(in some cases).

spank said...

Ebanks with an ally oop dunk

NicJ said...

Tell Molly knight to shut up about Meg Whitman. Bitch lives in NYC.

M KNIGHT SLAMALAMADINGDONG!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I'm confused. How do you deport a legal citizen?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Shit, are they chanting Beat LA at the Harry Reid rally?

NicJ said...

So legal marijuana will have to wait a few more years for the older voters to die off.

spank said...

Too bad Prop.19 got voted down. I was ready to cultivate the chronic for the masses.

Paul said...

Deporting US citizens seems to happen few times a year.

By accident of course....

I am just glad I don't have to read tweets about how better New York is to LA.
