    San Fran World Champions

    Man those guys played their butts off, and showed the world that being better on paper doesnt mean crap in a best of 7 series.

    Congratulations to the 2010 Wolrd Series Champion San Francisco Giants...from an Oakland A's fan! The Giants played like a team and really deserved this championship.

            Hopefully some guys here though built the Rangers up so much it became nauseating. Anyway, Mets predicted to be in the WS next year again . Best part about being a Mets fan, we are the WS champs on paper before every season.

              The Rangers never had a chance with Bush cheering them on!

                Let's keep the politics out of this.

                    Sour grapes again......better on paper???? Bullshit. The Giants pitching is better on paper and pitching wins.

                      Exactly. The old axiom held true. Good pitching always beats good hitting.

                      As an A's fan I'm glad the Giants finally joined the World Series party

                      First major championship in the Bay Area in a long time so way to go Giants!

                        I guess that means you're not going to be in a good mood come Wednesday morning.

                          Congrats to all the Giants fans on here. Was weird to watch today and ask my father (just a general fan) what it was like to watch the Giants last win a World Series....when he was 9!
                          Cheers,

                            Normally there would be no point in commenting on this type of crap. It was a pretty proud moment watching two former presidents throw out the first pitch. It was also pretty cool to see that many military members holding the huge flag out in center field. During god bless america they showed the former first families sitting in the owners box and it brought one of the loudest cheers of the night. Of course our team was busy stinking it up. Honostly im even surprised that Nancy Pelosi lets them even sing that song in San Fran.

                              Theres no sour grapes at all shubert im proud of my team getting to the WS. For a team that couldnt add payroll from the beginning of the season to the ownership issues etc they made me proud. They beat good rotations throught the playoffs just like the giants did. The rangers hitters just choked, and the giants hitters hit better than they ever will again. Either way the giants proved they are the best team in baseball, and like i said in my first post they proved throughout the entire playoffs that the game is played on the field and not on paper.
