When many people suffer from a delusion, it is called religion.

That's just not true.

Baseball Outside North America

I've seen games in Japan and Cuba. It's a dominant sport in Latin America besides football/soccer). Taiwan. South Korea. Anyway.

lol - grand salami in the bottom of the ninth!

to be serious for a second here, APT and Nat are right about playoff baseball being pretty good.
i won't sit and watch an entire game but make a point of tuning in for the highlights at the end of the night.

go seahawks!

We don't know what our limits are, so to start something with the idea of being limited actually ends up limiting us.

I'd like to say Bumgarner was lights out, rather than Detroit when quiet. But he left some pitches up in the zone that could have been jacked for sure.

Giants brought the small ball last night, and it was good to see them manufacture a key win. That bunt was definitely destiny LOL.

Ok true.

But the World series is only North America. How can they call it a world series? You wouldn't call the Soccer World Cup the "World Cup" if it was only played by United Kingdom teams - England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales.

Great to see you guys stoked on the Giants! So fun being in San Francisco right now. The vibe here is at it's best. If any of you were planning a trip down here then now is the time to do it!

The win in 2010 and the parade after are probably the two most memorable days I've had at home here. So much fun. Lost my voice and woke up sore after both of those days. Let's do it again!
