What a difference a division makes...

Some of you already know that I have SF Giants season tickets. It's easier and cheaper to get my baseball fix out here buying them all and selling off the ones I don't want than paying full price for single games. But today I had to laugh...

The Giants (12 games under .500) sent out post-season invoices yesterday. At least they give you until 9/16 to decide if it's worth throwing away the $25 non-refundable FedEx S & H fee on those.

If you're going this weekend, stop by and say hi to Jeff (bh714 here) and I in Sec 139. We'll be the ones in Cubby blue...

Tell me about it
one of my roommates is a Giants fan, and he's unbearable right now.  Between his flat out refusal to accept that Bonds is the biggest juicer of them all and him constantly giving me shit about the Cubs being a horrible team (for or five games better than the Giants, I believe) and how we haven't won a World Series since 1908 (The G-Men aren't exactly stellar in this category either, not winning one since the move to California, and not winning one in mine an his lifetimes combined {about 47 years or so}).  Drives me nuts.  Also, the Giants are a horrible team.

If...
... the Cubs were in the NL West today, they'd be a game and a half out of first place.

with an NL West schedule...
We'd probably be 5 games up, even as dysfunctional as this team has been.
