World Series 2010

"The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!" —Russ Hodges (1951)

San Francisco beat Philly to go to their fourth World Series since coming to the City in 1958. Tonight the Series begins. I hope the next quote is: "The Giants win the Series! The Giants win the Series! The Giants win the Series!"

We have very few photos of my dad as a child. My sister Ellene brought this one of him at about 3 years old. Looks like it was fall. We believe this was in Arizona.

Drink at your own risk. OK, I did, as did several others in our group. Tasted like grape juice (not fermented).

Columbia, MO, United States (AHN) - Blaine Gabbert passed for 308 yards and a score and De'Vion Moore rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown, as Missouri toppled top-ranked Oklahoma 36-27 Saturday.

Missouri pulled away by scoring 17 straight points in the second half to send its home crowd into a tizzy.

Giants Go to World Series!

San Francisco Giants
Beat Phils, 3-2, in Philly and win series 4-2. Will face Rangers Weds. in World Series. I've been a Giants fan since they came to the Bay Area in 1958 and they've never won the Series. Will 2010 be the year?
