I mostly coached kids. little high school. and some college kids in the summer.

My job was to teach not tell kids they can't play. I always believed that every kid could get better with encouragement .

Agree, with kids that's the way to do it.

Just trying to see just how far you go with this....it's hard for me to believe you don't believe a Giant player can be bad (not bad compared to the rest of the world, just bad compared to other ML players).

Bum pitched a hell of a game....this is what they mean when they say wins and losses are a team stat.

It's the Bigs...If you make it...you made it to heaven. Not too many players make it to the bigs, You have to be good at something.

I know, as I said even the worst big leaguer is really good at baseball. But it's possible to be really good at baseball, but then when you are competing with others who are also really good at it, you might not be able to cut it.

McGehee is probably not a useful major league ballplayer, it's pretty simple.

I mean, do any NON-Giants suck? Or is your take that once you are in the majors you totally rock and you can't really say one major leaguer is good and another is bad?

Hey guys...just curious.

Any of you know the OP's age?
I'm guessing 18ish...maybe 19 or 20??

Wouldn't some of you real Giants fans agree that the silly names still being given to all the other teams in these daily game threads on here is a bit juvenile, overdone and trite?...especially on the board of a WS winner??

Giants lose 2-0

Bum pitched 8 solid innings 2 ER..tough break..deserved better

Hernandez was a little better tonight

Giants only 4 hits

Duffy 2 hits

The offense has to bust out some time.

Need a split tomorrow

Go Giants !!

Perhaps it's a special superstition or some weird religious baseball ritual he practices for good luck?

I just find it quite bizarre...but anyhow, have a good one, fellas.

That is all.

Or maybe it is just something we have been doing for the last 10 years or so.

Having an original title for the thread is more fun than a sterile "Giants at Mariners" (blech!). If you don't like it, tough shit.

That's the point.

Some don't work. Some do.

I would prefer a failed joke title to a dull, just factual one.

Boring is a boring place to be. Stay loose Cal. Keep telling jokes. We need more laughter out in the computer world.

Some of us have family looking over our shoulder on occasion. Just saying.
