As usual, Stokes, you have impeccable taste

Brother, I was lucky, and married up. Way up.

When I visited my wife's parents for the first time, her dad greeted me at the door with a 49ers jacket on and wearing a Giants' hat. For a brief moment, I thought it was St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.

I dated a girl in high school who didn't even know what baseball was, and another who was a devout A's fan.

:help:

Colin invited me over from Disney in the fall of '10. I wish I could say I knew as much about baseball a you fellas do, but I am a G fan since '65. I get a kick out of reading the GDT's. I don't know all of the acronyms yet but I guess I'll pick them up.

Welcome aboard, Phlap.

Take a peek at the board language thread for a decent list of a lot of the board slang. It is not 100%, but it should get you started.

Hey 1phlap!

Baseball knowledge isn't a prerequisite to posting here..these guys let me post as much as I want!

I always thought you had one of the best Giants themed board names. Hackman and his one flap down trot had so much attitude, he'd fit perfectly with this current group of Giants.

Didn't you also have a cousin or nephew that posted on Disney?

I was wonflapdown over there and I think there was/were other/s with subtle spelling diffs. No nephews. One niece teaches in Albany, the other is at Vandy.

Welcome 1phlap. :welcome:

BTW: I wish I could say I knew half as much about the Giants/baseball as most of the guys on here, but it wouldn't be true. Sometimes I feel like a guy in an honors English class who doesn't know what a gerund is. (wait, what the hell is a gerund again?).

Anywho, this is a great place to celebrate/suffer/laugh while watching our beloved Giants. Enjoy.

and Colin's finders fee, of course

This board is proving to be more profitable than my Amway business.

On a completely unrelated note: Anthem, I have a business opportunity for you.

Um...

OK...

(nervously looks around to see if anyone else is embarrassed for the guy wearing the hockey jersey at a basketball game)

On a baseball board?

Don't take this personally, but no one on this board gives a rat's behind about Nebraska collegiate sports, at least during baseball season.

:think:

We do like parties here, though. Wear the hat, it is good for the soul.

:dunce:

I saw you sitting there in the corner, but you were wearing all the college gear, I wasnt sure what to talk to you about.

24/7, have you met JJM?

JJM, this is 24/7.
