Happy, um, Lincecum Day?

Happy, um, Lincecum Day?...
After two weather-related posts last week, I promise not to obsess over another, milder heat wave in San Francisco that’s supposed to start tomorrow. Talking about the weather usually means you don’t know what else to talk about, and I really don’t want anyone to think the author of...

Pitch counts and Madison Bumgarner

Pitch counts and Madison Bumgarner...
Mike Krukow said it on Friday night when Madison Bumgarner got strike one against Albert Pujols in their last battle, a lively confrontation that resulted in Pujols hitting a home run to center and ending Bumgarner’s night in the 8th inning: if the Giants make the playoffs, Bumgarner would be one...

Chills … and then just cold

Chills … and then just cold...
It seemed like everything was back to normal after yesterday’s uber-weirdness left us overheated and giddy. The city’s warmer than usual, but back to its normal windy self. The Giants had trouble scoring runs against Homer Bailey and the Reds once again looked like the best offensive team...

Giants vs. Braves: quieting the haters

Giants vs. Braves: quieting the haters...
The Giants are the hottest team in baseball right and … what’s that I hear? I that the sound of haters picking apart the team? Well, of course it is. Until the Giants finally win a World Series, the complaints will always drown out the praise (and let’s face it, even if they do win...

Photo shoot proves Andre Ethier is a wookie

Photo shoot proves Andre Ethier is a woo...
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...

I wish I could criticize Sabean…...
I really, really do. Ever since sports talk radio changed the way we talk, whine, yell and bitch about sports, criticism is the only real way to get your point across anymore. Ask anybody who’s making a good living in this crazy business. If you talk about how great everything is all the time,...

Time to play GM

Time to play GM...
There are different ways to write/blog about the rosterbatory practice of obsessing over the trade deadline: 1. Read and respond to every trade rumor, now matter how nonsensical or the source involved. “Oh snap! Chris Rose just said the Giants are interested in Albert Pujols. I might even give...

Dogs have no manners

Dogs have no manners...
We’re dog-sitting this week for our nextdoor neighbor. Usually it’s no big deal. We take the dog out in the morning and after work, have her stay at our place in the evening and play with our dog, make sure she doesn’t starve to death. No biggie. This morning I experienced the worst-case...

Weekend Roundup: Part 2: Buster Posey’s “nickname”

Weekend Roundup: Part 2: Buster Posey...
Marty Lurie is a Godsend on the weekends. Last night’s traffic jam we slogged through would have been downright impossible to handle without him. And I know that if you’re on the radio for 10 hours a day, you need to come up with topics. That said, stop trying to come up with nicknames for...

Giants fans shouldn’t expect any big trades

This isn’t an original pet peeve, but it’s a pet peeve nonetheless. I hate it when people call sports talk radio and bring up trades without any thought whatsoever to why the other team would make the trade. You know, the whole, “The Giants should get a guy like Miguel Cabrera. You...
