The rain cometh

[msgkings322]

So we are likely to see a ton of rain here from tomorrow through maybe Sunday. Would they really delay the next few days, and play game 7 potentially in mid November? I guess they'd have to, a la 1989

Or would they try to get the game in with lots of delays where it takes 8 hours? And what does that do to our crowd advantage? And our SP advantage (Cain's superiority neutralized by an 8 hour slippery game?) And how about what a delay does for them, giving Lee 3 starts?

Anyone got a feeling God is not a Giants fan? (89 earthquake, 2002 Dusty jinx, 2010 rain...)

Does it make me selfish that I have an a prior engagement I can't get out of tomorrow, and I'm kind of happy about this so I can still see the game?

Not really selfish, just, I don't know....yeah selfish!

Speaking of prior plans, where is everyone going to watch tonight? Me and some friends are going to a bar so no posting on the GDT for me during.

Spike's! (Bar close to work named after my buddy's dad) With four Giants fans, a Dodgers fan and a Lakers fan (couldn't care less about baseball).

FP said the latest forecast says no significant rain until 9pm tomorrow. I'm just a little skeptical that any meteorologist can be that precise.

Any chance they move the game time earlier to avoid the late rain? Do the poohbahs at MLB and Fox have some flexibility there?

FWIW weather.com shows rain all day tomorrow: Daily Weather Forecast for San Francisco, CA (94104) - weather.com

Boo.

Neither are known for embracing flexibility, but I guess you never know. All men should embrace flexibility. .

Who are you, agiantstep?

If it's just going to rain all day we likely have a delay of a day or two.

3 Lee starts.

But also, 3 Timmah starts. And only 1 Sanchez.

I try to channel the funnier moments of the Zen Thread Killer, and I'm always looking for a funny sexual innuendo (or inyourendo. Was that you or filo that typed that once?).

Not I.

Funny one though.

Must've been filo. Time for a haiku:

Game 1 should be good
Two artists, top of their craft
Tidrow owns Nolan

Nice. My turn:

Tomorrow's rain looms
But today The Freak dazzles
Nolan fucking sucks

Hahahaha. Well played.
