I was at Game 2 Thursday, what a thrill it was to be at the game and in SF after dealing with jealous A’s fans all day.

The following day, Friday I was in downtown Oakland wearing my Giants hat and I got some really mean looks from old ladies to little kids on the street and on BART.

A really mean looking big dude stared me down in a downtown Oakland restaurant with evil eyes for 1/2 hour. I thought he was going walk up to me and take a punch.

Gotta love the person in my neighborhood who presses the remote on his or her car alarm whenever the Giants score a run, thus making it unnecessary to actually watch the game. *beep beep beep beep beep*

During the last couple of months I've seen a slowly increasing number of Giants caps here in the LA area...everytime I see a Dodgers cap I have to repress the urge to yell "Beat LA" or "Let's Go Giants!"

I know some A’s fan in Sacramento that refuse to watch the World Series just because the Giants are in it.
Makes sense. Sacto's team, the Rivercats, is an A's farm club.

I think the Giants might win it in a minute or 2.

It's over.

Oh well.

Can't root for Giants because I live near L.A. and my cat wanted the Tigers(I think - they are named after cats after all).

Meow.

San Francisco, even this Mariners fan will tip his hat off to you. You can celebrate now, the Giants have won.
