Was at the park today watching the Gigantes take a knee in the presence of an awesome power. About half the crowd was from San Francisco so pretty good turnout. Barry Zito was confused and thought he was pitching in a slow pitch softball game.

Really tired of seeing this thread hanging around, for two reasons:
1. I'm a Giants fan and have hated the Dodgers for some 12 yrs before I even hated Stanfurd and, yes, it sucks seeing those bastards on a roll. But you know what? We've won 2 of the last 3 World Series, so I'm good. Wish Cal had been doing anywhere near as well.
2. ESPECIALLY given the baseball standings, but mainly because it's time for California Football!

Dodger fans were dreading this thread in 2012. But now, we're really enjoying it! Keep bumping it up everyone. Sorry @NYCGOBEARS! It's our turn for some fun.

Thanks KAB. Win some, lose some. The rivalry keeps rollin baby...
KoreAmBear;842156672 said:
Now I just wish Cal would have it's day. That does not seem to come around. We haven't had one since January 1959. And that wasn't a winner either. Ugh.

Exactly. I don't mind what's currently going down. It's good for the rivalry, this boost in Dodger fan interest that's going to come from their great regular season followed by a first-round playoff crash.
NYCGOBEARS;842156676 said:
As a Giants fan I know better than to give up hope. I'll never quit believing in Cal. We're gonna be there soon. I feel it!
Where'd I put my Long Island Iced Tea???

Our last DAY was in 1938. It was 9 years before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball. You depressed yet?

Being a Cal fan halfway exonerates somebody from being a Dodger fan. Hell, if I had grown up in LA, I might be a Dodger fan, too. But here's the problem: Do I really want/need to know that a Cal fan whom I have sorta loved and respected, anonymously and in a manly sort of way, likes the goddam freaking Dodgers? No! Ignorance is bliss, in this case. It's the epitome of "TMI".
Mods, move this thread, before I find out somebody ELSE is a &*^%$#@ Dodger fan!

I'm a HUGE Giants fan but I was raised to take it as well as I dish it. My Gigantes are stinking it up right now and the Doyers are on an historic roll. So what? We got 2 of 3 and the rivalry just becomes that much more dramatic again with the resurgent Bums. It'll come back round again Giants fans. Take heart.

As easy as it is to poke fun at the other guy, I'd much rather that both teams were good. The rivalry would be that much sweeter if we were both playing games of significance down the stretch, especially against each other. Come to think of it, I wish Cal and Furd were that way too instead of seemingly always being on opposite cycles. As a Dukie by virtue of grad school. I've loved watching Duke-Carolina games when both teams are in the top 10. Hopefully Sonny and company can put in position to battle it out with Furd with a Pac-12 North title on the line. The only game I can remember where Cal was top 10 and playing against another top 10 team was 2004 against USC but I may be wrong. Regardless, that game, despite the loss, and the build up to it was epic. Lets change that, Sonny.

The 2004 game v. $C (as well as the 2004 season), was eerily similar to the 1991 game v. UW (as well as the 1991 season). Both Cal squads were Rose Bowl worthy. Both games were against two of the all-time college seasons going on during those respective years. Why they had to be so good when Cal was good, I can't explain. Contrast that with Furd, which goes to the Rose Bowl after the 1999 season, even though they gave up almost 70 to Texas, and I believe lost to San Jose State that year. It just isn't fair. Waaah!!!!

Did you just hijack this thread and segue to a Cal Football topic? Crafty. Well done.

That is totally my bad. Too many long islands tonight watching the Dodgers breeze through another victory to extend their lead to 18 games made me a bit wispy.
