2010…the S.F. Giants are going to the WS--only the 4th time since moving from N.Y. in 1958…and they’ve never won! Conversely, in the same time frame, rival LA Dodgers have been WS Champs 4,5,or6 times. I don’t know about other Giant fans, but this fact always grates on me to no end…one of the reasons why I hate the Dodgers so much. Adding insult to injury, 3rd time SF ever went to the WS (2002), they lost to another SoCal team--the (AL) Anaheim Angels. This series was especially heartbreaking as Giants was 8 outs away from the championship, leading 5 to 0 in Game 6. Then proceeded to lose it all in Game 7.
Please…the Giants must follow ChiSox’ example and ask SP to tag along for good luck. Ironically, it’ll be against another Texas team—the (AL) Rangers. Ooh…the ironies. Could this at long last be the year for long-suffering Giant fans to end the stigma?
