Deadspin’s Erik Malinowski posted several athletes’ tweets about the election, including LeBron James having a little fun (“Ohio and Fla. My favorite states!”), Lendale White’s thoughts on Colorado passing Amendment 64 (“Co becomes 1st state ever to legalize weed!! Wow”), and a golfer named Pat Perez who tweeted a profanity-laced diatribe about unemployment and higher taxes that he later said he “didn’t submit.”
I took a gander at what some of our local athletes had to say about four more years for Barack Obama, and their tweets ran the gamut as well. Several were quite happy, like Randy Moss:
49ers CB Tramaine Brock:
Oakland A’s second baseman Jemile Weeks:
However, there were some athletes with local ties who were not as enthusiastic about Tuesday night’s result in the Presidential election. One was Andrew Susac, a catcher in the San Francisco Giants’ minor league system.
Clayton Blackburn, a right-handed starting pitcher in the Giants’ system who John Sickels called “one of the most intriguing prospects in baseball” not too long ago, also showed his displeasure:
He isn’t with the San Francisco 49ers anymore, but Blake Costanzo had a memorable 2011 as one of the leaders on the coverage teams. He now has plans for tomorrow:
Back to Susac, who was upset enough to plan future real estate ventures:
This might be how Brandon McCarthy would respond to Susac:
Meanwhile, McCarthy’s teammate Brett Anderson is ready for the whole thing to be over:

Where do I send condolences to Ted Nugent's family..a year from now he's dead or in prison, he predicted. Good riddance. We need the furry animals more then his worthless carcass.
Today,Lacob,Beane,Wolff,Jed,Mark,Gruber,10 invisible Giant owners,John Fisher, mourn. The country will improve?..lol--they don't care about that. Its take all right now..instead of most over time. The Demo's can only slow up the wealthy.. we saw Bush give it nearly all away.
I don't believe it mixing politics with sports. Wanna buy a bridge?
Im a pretend repiblican I stand tor war, big deficits, church, patriot acts, fake terror business. I am against gay rights, womens rights, the envirinmennt, progreessive ideas, immigrants, blacks, the poor Repubicans are pieces of s8)(t
Deficits are cool as long as they're created by bombing children in middle eastern countries. Creating them by investing in America at home is socialism. I'm so glad the tea party is around to represent me as a disenfranchised white man.
Bombing children in the middle east? So soon you forget the democratic majority in congress that voted for the Iraq war and passed the Patriot Act. So soon you forget the Democrat President and democrat majority senate that approved the National Defense Authorization Act, allowing for indefinite incarceration of accused "terrorists" without access to a lawyer or even a court appearance. But of course, don't let the facts get in the way of your preconceived notions.
