And I hope they keep paying it because there's not much I despise in baseball more than a Giants or Angels fan.

Like I said, Nolan, you've found a home here on SportsHoopla finally. Enjoy!

Are we really this down on the Giants not even 10 games into the season?

Nah, just this Montalban guy, which is the new name for NolanNonsense, who's now been banned twice from the Giants board and I think twice from the Niners board. He kind of hates his own teams. :shrug:

Well, you won't have to worry about the Giants for a long while now. Their once proud pitching staff is aging and is being replaced with band-aids. Their lineup this year was bolstered only by another slap hitting outfielder and a fat, out of shape third baseman; neither of whom can hit their way out of a paper bag..

Didn't I just slap you down over on the Niner board the other day? or was that that crafty little fellow CalSnowskier?

Management took the heart right out of the team with their offf-season money grab and you can see it in the team from the beginning of Spring Training. They will not see .500 again this season.

You bet I am! I expected bad when I saw the cash grab management conducted in the off season refusing to spend on quality players, but I did not expect historically bad like we are seeing. We could easily lose 100 games this season. Thank god for the D'Backs; at least we can beat somebody.

Not this year they didn't. Lester and Shields were just what they needed and they gave us broke down Ryan Vogelsong instead. They needed Justin Upton, the perfect fit, for a lineup starving for power but they give us worthless slap-hitting Aoki. They let post season stud Sandoval walk and they give us fat, out of shape, MLB cast off Casey McGeHee. All to save a buck. Its shameful.

Losing streak now at 7 with no end in sight. The team's morale has been destroyed by management's failure to try and improve the team; instead choosing to line their pockets in one of the more shameful cash grabs in recent sports history.

Next to the Phillies, the worst team in the NL.

The Giants have more losses than any team in baseball, are on a 7-game losing streak and they have the decrepit Peavy on the mound who has a 9 ERA and is yet to go 5 innings either in Spring or in regular season

Anybody notice the starting outfield tonight for the Giants? Slap hitters all the way across.I'm willing to bet that this outfield will not produce 10 homeruns combined for the entire season. I think they'll hit 7................. maybe.

I was going to create a thread like this soon..but I don't know. It seems like 2011, 2013, and now 2015, the Giants do horribly.

The '11 and '13 seasons could be explained as abberations. This one, however, can be directly correlated to magement's off-season cash grab, playing off the WS title, refusing to spend any money on the team's needs. Its shameful.

....And the beat goes on. This run of complete ineptitude has reached 8 now with last night's game being the hmost humiliating yet. No reason to assume the streak won't reach double digits before the weekend is over.
