I agree that this has been a great season as it unfolds. But .... I'm not so sure I'll be able to separate the regular season from the post season no matter how it all turns out. If we finish with the BRIB and have 100 or more wins than I will definitely have some very real expectations for the post season. To finish with anything around 100 wins for me .... means we were damn good all year long. You don't win anywhere near 100 games just by being lucky. But as we all know ... the playoff are a crapshoot .... in 2010 and 2012 and 2014 we were underdogs ...and we won it all. As of this point in the season .... I think we may actually be front runners ... a very strange position for us Giant fans
....

When the Giants win 100+ games this season and have the BRIB, we will still enter the playoffs as an underdog in most people's minds.

Certainly in the NLDS that's for sure.

I remember all those nicks.

The most famous, of course, was Nick Lowry.

I think we all had the same dream that there was in fact a "Nick" Lowry but if he existed it was as an ephemeral, like a hallucination in the mist.

Nick was so awesome, that even though he didn’t exist, he was still the best player in Giants franchise history.
