I have been a die hard Giants fan my entire life. My whole family has, in fact my Grandmother died the day after Ortiz was lifted and we went on to lose the W.S. I still believe it was a broken heart not cancer. But this team, there is something about them you can tell they are having the time of their lives. You dont see them sulking, you dont see any one player off to themselves (no offense to #25 I loved him but come on). This is a team, a team that was supposed to be a .500 team AT BEST!!!! Not 6.5 games back of 1st place and a game up in August! This is AWESOME. As much as you can give credit to Timmay and Cain they dont get to play everyday. KFP does though and he comes to the yard everyday and you can tell he is loving every minute of it. Gone are the days when you could not tell if the players were even enjoying themselves (again sorry #25), gone are the days where the team revolves around 1 player (really Barry I am sorry). This team reminds me a lot of the early 90's braves. They had 2 stud pitchers and an outstanding 3rd baseman that the team was built around.
It's a little ironic if you think about it. Wasnt it only a few years ago that a certain team of fans gave us a bunch of crap for having a roided out LF while they were busy building a team from within. Things that make you go Humm(BABY)!
PS this is my background at work. I added a little squashed Dodger logo to his foot!
