which is a damn shame if true. They had good ribs, which makes sense since Aramark wasn’t running it.

Ribs’n’Things. There’s been a sign up since the beginning of the season saying “Burger Joint Coming Soon”. Some of us were talking about it on Thursday and concluded that it’s the difficulty of finding people who know how to cook burgers that’s causing the delay.
Kinder’s is gone too, but one of the other stands near the right field bleachers is selling BBQ pulled pork, beef, and chicken sandwiches. I didn’t especially like the pork; sauce is too vinegary.

chuckled when they said another 123 inning lol
Why are they going to take out the pitcher so early again?
by ‘they’ I mean Bob Geren.
I think the thing that encourages me the most
is how hard we work to make adjustments from one inning to the next – you can really tell by the intelligent, grind-it-out at-bats. We’re so close.

so, i got into an argument with a friend about how i think oakland sports are superior to SF sports...
so i added up the overall oakland and SF team win-loss records. final numbers were a .522 winning % (3,995 – 3,646)and 7 total championships for oakland matched up to a .521 winning % (4,903 – 4,499) and 6 total championships for SF. this may be only important to me, but i love those numbers.
I'd love to see Geren coach in the NL. I'm not entirely sure he knows the rules.

Not my imagination, I don't think....
Matsui hit a slow ground ball to Sanchez. As the ball was reaching the glove, Matsui gave up and slowed down. It isn’t likely he would have made it to first, but if he’d been running faster, it would have forced Sanchez to move more quickly…or what if the throw was a little bit off.
Geren never disciplines his players for not running out ground balls.
Yep. I saw that.

Yes. 1st inning, Sweeney cued one into left field, only started to run at the last minute when he realized it MIGHT stay fair. WRONG! He should have been pulled. Of course, we'd be facing a no-hitter if he had, but f*ing hell all, these guys are coasting.

Stockton do indeed suck.
In the SF/ATL playoffs he turned a pitcher into a homeless landscaper (“Madison Bumgardener”).
Mark Grace is a possibly drunken lout capable of either brilliant experienced insight or complete lackadaisical buffoonery.
Also, he has the DiamondBLANKtaint.
So I switched right away to the SF feed.
But while Jon Miller’s “Astonished at everything!” delivery is entertaining I’ve grown weary of Mike Krukow’s homeristic ignorance of failure and Dave Flemming’s blandness.
I ended up simply muting the audio, which was amazingly refreshing.

It wouldn’t go as far as him actually punishing players who dog it; who are all mixed up and head-up-ass at the plate; it wouldn’t go near as far as him actually giving a green light on 3-0, putting on an occasional plays, say once every THREE games or so; it wouldn’t go anywhere neqar as far as him self-immolating in protest.

Blevins should be DFAd like yesterday
Geren must go, and we need somebody who can fire up this team! With this pitching we should be 4-5 games over .500 AT LEAST! Jesus, this is getting too fucking frustrating.
FUCK THIS A'S TEAM!!
You’d think they’d find a way to use the hatred the MLB has toward them to have a chip over their shoulders!! Now, insufferable Gnats fans continue to laugh!
I though the end of the season ad said the A’s would come up with new ideas, but it’s the same old shit in a a whole new green package!!
Hey Beane, if you can’t turn this shut around with some offense, you’re gonna look as idiotic as your best man when a Moneyball movie comes out and the club finishes out of the playoffs again!!
Sorry, but I fucking hate losing to the Gnats over any team!!

Woah, the Rapture just got to Berkeley
In the form of an earthquake.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
That was so not cool. o.o
I veto earthquakes on Rapture Day, that was not okay.
"This must be heaven," he says.
"No. It's Oakland."
I did not enjoy it, but at least it was quick.
