ANtics Episode 2.13: 3 Games of Shadows

As_kings_cal_tiny by louismg on in News

After today's wet, soggy defeat at the hands of our cross-bay rivals, the A's had dropped two of three to conclude what had otherwise been a strong week, and the team's still tied for first with Texas. But that's not what the baseball media has noticed. Instead it's been all Barry, all the time. We investigated these "3 Games of Shadows", and found the Giants players getting a little inappropriate with our players. No wonder they were afraid to get on base.

That's hysterical. Has GOT to be my favorite one so far. ::snicker::
I think Bobby's "Special Area" quote is my favorite, but the "That was awesome. Can I touch you?" rivaled it. Tee hee....muahahaha!

Good one.
the great playoff miss of 2004 followed by the good try of 2005 But will 2006 do the trix?

This was definately the funniest one I have seen in a long time! I love them all, but this is at the top now!

Wow.
Easily the best ANtics in the history of ANtics.  It touched me in a special place.

The Crosby and Bonds one is the funniest one I've seen by far...

I love AN-tics!
I always look forward to Sunday evenings for the new one, and it always brightens my week no matter how the A's have done!
