Reasons proclaimed by the ignorant and the nonbelievers (thank filo )
1. The Padres gave them the division or else they wouldn't have made it.
2. THE FIX IS ON JAS!!!
3. The Braves defense and bad calls helped them advance.
4. Injuries to the Braves.
5. Brooks Conrad (I know he's a part of the Braves defense, but come on.)
6. The Phillies had bad luck and Ryan Howard had no RBI (and a .318 BA.)
7. The Phillies went into a teamwide slump and Howard with no RBIs.
8. LUCK! FLUKE! STEROIDS! ANTIHUMIDORS! CHEATERS! TRASH!
9. The Rangers somehow went into a teamwide slump.
10. Ron Washington.
11. Vlad's defense (that directly attributed to 0 Giants wins.)
12. Cliff Lee was injured and/or choked.
Reasons I attribute to this championship (add your own if you'd like):
1. They played well down the stretch and had more wins than the Braves too, so they would've won the WC if the Padres played well.
2. The only circumstance where a fix could be in was last year in the playoffs when the Yankees had a bad call go their way to save a run against the Twins on that "foul" ball.
3. They caught a couple of breaks, but so did every team in the first round that capitalized and advanced.
4. For the most part this team has been fortunate with injuries, all of the right guys were healthy at just the right time.
5. They made less errors than their opponents in each playoff series.
6. Pitching pitching and more fucking pitching!!!
7. Discounting their own starters, you could claim that they beat 6 of the 15 best pitchers in the mlb on their way (Latos, Hudson, Halladay, Oswalt, Hamels, and Lee twice.)
8. They were counted out and they were hungry and incredibly resilient.
9. Sabean and Bochy actually are very good at what they do.
10. There was a different hero every night and this is a resilient team that proves that chemistry and clutch hitting do exist.
11. FEAR THE BEARD!
12. As a good luck charm the last time I shaved was the morning of game 1 of the NLDS, you're welcome!
13. I can't help but feel that my nephew is a good luck charm of some sort. When he was born the Giants had just won against the Astros to go 2-0 on the year. He is now by the laws of the universe a hardcore Giants fan for life.
14. They didn't really win and this is all a figment of my imagination.
15. GP properly managing the jinx of his wife.
