The deepest part of my fandom aches for one of the most inspirational players to ever wear a…

Giants Ring Ceremony & Everyone’s ERA explodes

Day 3 of 3 of Opening Weekend. Ring Ceremony was amazing – the replica rings as you’ve probably heard, are just so cool. They are not plastic or keychains – they are straight up heavy duty rings that look pretty damn impressive. Of all 3 ceremonies, Opening Day was my favorite. It was cool to…

Giants honor Posey, Vogelsong can’t blank the Cardinals

WS Game 3: Vogelsong, Tiger Blood, Rookie Heros, and GIFS!

I would have never thought that in Game 3 we would be up 3 Games. I was shaking in my boots about playing the Tigers – so much so that I was rooting for the Yankees. THE YANKEES! Like a total idiot. And yet, I’ve been far less stressed and tortured watching the last 3…

NLCS GAME 2 GIFS!! And like, words. (Who cares.)

As you guys may know, I’ve been at every postseason game so far so blogging and GIFs have been few and far between. I’ve also been shuttling my tired butt to and from Seattle to attend the games, getting ahead of work so I can actually get time off, etc so it’s been a busy…
