I just want to point out that not only did the season become more enjoyable, but the Giants started playing better as a team after we defected to this board. I'm not one to give fans much credit for a team's success, but this has been too great of a turn-around to just be coincidence. Plus, if Bengie Molina and Chris Ray are guaranteed a World Series share, shouldn't this board at least get a 1/4 of a percent to split if the Giants win?

Also, thanks for the stories about the NY days, PatriarchSF (filo is more of a creepy uncle). Honestly and sadly, I wouldn't even be a fan of the Giants if they never moved to SF. I'd be a fan of whatever expansion team inevitably landed in the Bay Area, so I tend to dismiss that part of the teams' history. There were certainly a lot of great moments, but those are New York's moments. Your stories make me realize the importance of continuing to communicate that history, though. And for that, I am appreciative. gp is right, too. Definitely the golden era of baseball. The athletes may have gotten better in some ways, but they've become astronomically worse in others. It appears the same is true of fans.
