At the rate we are going, this game is gonna be under 2 hours…

Im hoping the A’s still score more than the Yankees though.

So I'm looking at the website for

Giordano’s (a Pittsburgh themed sandwich shop) here in SF and here’s a snip from the FAQ:

Q: Do you show the Steeler games?
A: Yes.

Q: Do you show other NFL games when the Steelers are on?
A: No. Only the Steelers.

Q: Do you show the Penguin games?
A: Yes.

Q: Do you show the Pirates games?
A: No. (Tell them to have a winning season and we’ll consider it.)

It wasn't crowded at all.

When I walked in, the girl there said hi, and then grabbed the remote to throw the A’s game on for me (she saw my hat). I got a salami sandwich and some fries, and watched a few innings of the game. It’s hot out.

The AM/PM player of the game should never be an opposition player

If the A’s lose, they should just randomly assign it or give it to someone in AAA

Ahhh, nothing like a series against the Yankees to remind us all of the talent disparity in baseball and how much the A's still need to do to really contend

Lose Swisher early in the game, so what? Two homers for Granderson. For us, it’d be more like two automatic strikeouts.

Bad game plan?

I’ve never seen a team get worked over so badly for four games in a row after playing relatively well for a while.

I keep thinking that whoever worked on the game plan for pitching to the Yankees appears to have forgotten the dimensions of the stadium, and whoever worked on the game plan for hitting also seems to have forgotten that - though that could be chalked up to lousy hitters and a good game plan on the part of the Yankees.

by richwol1 on Sep 2, 2010 1:37 PM PDT reply actions  

I think it's pretty simple

The A’s are not in the same league as the Yankees.
