First day back a long one
This was just what the Giants needed to open a critical 10-game trip, a 45-minute rain delay before the first pitch, 14 innings and a wrenching loss. Their second-half opener could not have gone worse without a river monster rising from the Allegheny and eating Pablo Sandoval.
-
This was the Giants' longest game by innings since a 15-inning loss in San Diego in 2001, but what else should they expect against Pittsburgh, which revels in beating San Francisco any which way. The Bucs have won 17 of the last 22 meetings.
--
Openers tend to be viewed symbolically, and this one symbolized the Giants' lack of real power threats. Manager Bruce Bochy alluded to that when he noted the team was 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position and said, "You're not going to win without hits with runners in scoring position unless you hit a home run, which they did."

8. They can't even handle the pressure of a Pirates series.
They'll never make the playoffs. 7 games under .500 on the road now. The Bobsy Twins will be panicking by the end of July as they slip lower and lower in the wild card standings. First the Rockies will pass them, then others, until the end of the season rolls around and the two douches are stuck staring at a big ass number 56.

9. That's all you do gloat. Your sporting life is so disaterous, that's all you do is
gloat to try to find a glimmer of sunshine, so you feel better about yourself.

And then when I bring up that fact that your team, whether it be team x or team y has been eliminated, you of course go on and fucking on about how you don't really care. :eyes:

Let's take a look at this sporting life disaster I suffer with daily....





















Oh yeah, we New England sports fan are in horrible agony. :rofl: And you claim what trumad typed is dumb? You stupid fuck. :rofl:

Every single person in this forum sees this for what it is, douchebag. Hardcore projection. What you just typed fits you to a "t". You gloat constantly. You harp on the few cities that suck more than yours to find a glimmer of sunshine so you can feel better about yourself. You're the stupid fuckstick who has your whole being tied into the success, and more often, failure of your teams. You're the wuss who cries when they lose. You're the douche who lives a miserable sports existence. A suck ass football team, perennial chokers in the NHL, a baseball team that gets you all wet just because they're in the hunt at the half way mark. You're not fooling anyone other than yourself, Crankboy. Not hard to do when you're as dumb as mayonnaise. :hi:
