Smile Giants 2007

Okay it's opening day and this is where everyone predicts their favorite team to win it all, but if you are a true fan, you have to be realistic. I think, wait hope, that the Giants will win the West. There is no clear cut team in the NL West, none what so ever

I think the Giants have the pitching staff, let's see if the lineup can stay healthy and make a run at the playoffs

Prediction > 1st

Can't see them beating the Dodgers & the Padres look improved. Could be a tough year in SF.

Yeah buy R.Johnson is already on the DL. Sure the Dodgers look good on paper and I am not sure about the Padres. It will be a close division this year!!

Good move to put him on the DL. Pitch him as little as possible for the first two months and he will be fresher later in the season. If they falter early on they'll use him.

BADONKYDONK is on a distinguished road
This Mike fellow seems not very able to distinguish the Giants from a real contender. Not quite as easy as telling real breasts from implants I reckon.
Poor fellow.

Yeah this Mike fellow is a Giants fan and has been one since he used to go to the Giants games by himself as a kid at Candlestick. Maybe he is just following his favorite team!

The Giants are a great franchise and always have been. John McGraw and Christy Mathewson, through to Mel Ott, Willie McCovey Will Clark and now Barry Bonds they have always had signature players.
