Happy Darren Ford Day!

You have to admit, there’s less of a jinxing possibility to that headline, isn’t there?

Leaving Ross in RF wasn’t Bochy’s biggest mistake
Leaving Ross in RF wasn’t Bochy...
For a game where we got to watch Jonathan Sanchez carve up the Rockies for eight innings, that was one terrible game to sit in the stands and watch last night. Terrible offense, several head-scratching managerial moves, poor defense and a huge letdown at the end. In all, it led to the third-worst Giants...

Giants go on bender, wake up next to Cody Ross
Giants go on bender, wake up next to Cod...
Don’t mind Brian Sabean if you see him in a 7-11 buying Gatorade, Ibuprofen and Alka-Seltzer. Or if you see a haggard Bruce Bochy waiting in an In-N-Out drive-thru, his prodigious cranium resting against the driver’s side window. After a bender of a 6-game road trip against contending teams,...

Giants turn clock back to 1993
Giants turn clock back to 1993...
Back in the days before humidors and dinosaur mascots — hell, back before the days of Coors Field, playing the Rockies used to be fun. Relaxing, even. An opposing team traveling to Denver back in the Rockies’ first year of existence (back when the most important thing to everyone wasn’t...

Photo shoot proves Andre Ethier is a wookie

First Kobe Bryant, now Andre Ethier. From now on, any Los Angeles athlete who gets a call from LA Times Magazine asking about potential photo shoots should hang up the phone faster than I do when I get automated phone calls from political candidates asking for votes on election day. While LAT Magazine...

A perfect time to crush the Dodgers

The Giants have this Mets series wrapped up all pretty with a bow and stuff, so you might be better off going outside and doing something instead of watching this afternoon’s game. Even the feeblest baseball teams are incredibly difficult to sweep in a 4-game series, and ones with Johan Santana...

B2B BLTs, bee costumes and B-Weezy...
It’s a full day when in the morning you ran alongside (and dodged) thousands of drunken Bay To Breakers revelers and still managed to listen to Marty Lurie for a full two hours in the evening while making Pad Thai. Mmmm, Pad Thai. No costumes for the fiance and I, just our normal running clothes....

I haven’t seen the Giants or A’s play in nearly a week on television, unless you count that replay I saw yesterday on the TV above the checkout area of my local overpriced boutique grocery store. I bought an apple tart yesterday to take to the Mother’s Day party, and it was delicious....

All you need to know is that people now call it “Lincecum Day.” Every day The Freaky Franchise is scheduled to start is a celebration, really unlike anything the Bay Area has ever seen. Nobody called Sundays “Joe Montana Day” in the 1980′s, although if people did there wouldn’t...

So, did Nellie get the record?
So, did Nellie get the record?...
It was like the entire sport of basketball was exhausted today. Can’t blame it really, after last night’s crazy, wonderful, awful, disappointing loss for Butler. So the Warriors followed up their Lifetime Original Win on Sunday versus Toronto with an 18-point loss to the Wizards. Not after...
