    it's been a fun one so far to me. It's been the HUGE late innings so far. Not like it was a 1st inning scoring 6 runs. That'll ruin a game.


    But that inning today was full of drama. Great stuff.

    That underrated Giants' offense strikes again.

    Just messin' around, Ace. ;)

    What a spankage so far...

    I am a Giants fan, after 13 years out here, but I really felt bad for the Rangers' kid who kept walking people. Worst night of his life. World series, and you throw like 11 straight pitches that aren't close to strikes.

    The Giants always make things interesting. I would bet they will drop game 3 in Arlington. I like Sanchez, but I have a bad, bad feeling about him on the road in the World Series.

    The Giants are showing that you need PITCHING!

    we need to get a true ACE on our staff

    I'm basking in the schadenfreude right now. My mild loathing of the Rangers has really been inflamed to full-on hatred because of all the bandwagon, fair-weather Dallas fans who've come out of the woodwork. It's been so nice seeing them silenced by the Giants' offense. C'mon, San Fran: sweep 'em!

    I can't lie, I don't hate the Rangers or anything but if they get swept it would bring a smile to my face.

    Has nothing to do with the 20 runs they scored in the first two games, right? :confused:

    Same way I feel. Can't really hate on them as a team because they are in the American League.

    But I would love to see them swept because of some of the fans (couple of my buddies, and an uncle of mine).

    Gotta say, I'm loving all of the fresh, crisp Rangers merchandise I see on campus in Austin. Gotta love the bandwagoning efforts of Dallas fans.

    I always thought Aubrey Huff hit well. Never wanted to see him let go.

    Their ages scare me the most... these guys (if they stay healthy) can end up being better than the Oakland's big 3 was.

    I can't believe the Giants are on the verge of winning the World Series! Never would have picked them going into this season...
