Guys, what's the deal with everyone obsessing about making little videos of the game on their phone? Half of my section watched the final out on their tiny screen. Its stupid. Just enjoy where you are. I don't tweet, BBS, etc at games. Plenty of time for that later. Enjoy the moment.

And yes, I know I sound like your dad

agree with you here and sorry for calling you dad yesterday. 'taterblast briefly talked about this itt last week i believe...

I rarely do it but like to catch a couple good snapchats to send out. Kind of fun watching good reaction films from different viewpoints in the stadium.

If I do it, I frame it up and then just watch the play normally. Which is why my ALCS clinching video is about a hundred Woooooooooo's around me while the camera is bouncing around as I smack hands.

[steve dave]

oh yeah, I take my sporting event vids like a real fan. not like one of these new money shitheads who are just there to say they were there and post to their snapchats for other shitheads.

counter point: I think everyone should do whatever they want to do that they enjoy doing. whatever makes you enjoy the experience more I say go for it.

That's a good point. If you can be Royal, and I can be Royal, maybe we all can BeROYAL.

Criticism redacted.

I'm good with do what you want. Some people really enjoy connecting on their devices during games, even when they are at the games. I think the key here (IMHO) is not to be annoying to the people you are with. If your buds at the game with you aren't device people, then its probably best to actually be with them and enjoy the moment. However, if they also enjoy tweeting, gEing, whatever while at events, go for it. I know I'm sometimes overly connected and some of my friends aren't, so I try not to be rude. Its all good.

Ned's R-L-R-L-R-L-R-L-R obsession is actually pretty effective against a manager like Bochy who is obsessed with matchups.
So you move Salvy to Billy's spot. I would definitely start Dyson in games 3 and 4, Aoki in game 5.

1 Escobar R
2 Dyson L (mocat) / Aoki L (Ned)
3 Cain R
4 Hosmer L
5 Perez R
6 Gordon L
7 Infante R
8 Moustakas L
9 Pitcher

Mocat, I was just going to post how I think it is time to put Dyson in For Aoki. This needs to be done

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

whats the reasoning behind aoki in game 5? just bumgarner?

[mocat]

Dyson hits like negative percentage vs Lefties and Aoki is actually pretty good at it.

[Dr Rick Daris]

whats the reasoning behind aoki in game 5? just bumgarner?

yeah. aoiki hits lefties way better than dyson.

[Cartierfor3]

mocat tell me more about wanting Zoom Zoom out there. I like aoki's ability to get on base, but he hasn't much so far. I dunno, I think I'd keep Aoki in there, and if not, I don't want Dyson 2nd.

i'm not going to lose my poop if Aoki starts. That is the most difficult right field in the MLB though in SF, and i would love to have Cain out there. Aoki has lost his September hot streak, Dyson is fine vs righties, is faster than Aoki, etc. So you get better defensively and my argument would be that you don't lose anything offensively (vs righties)

I got ya. I'm nervous about run production in these next 2 games without Billy.

I loved this play. I mean, baseball is just a funny game sometimes. Also, they have the Giants radio guys describing how strange a route Aoki takes to get to the ball. 

[mocat]

BTW Dyson is 0-7 this postseason, and Aoki is 0-7 this WS

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

aoki has kind of sucked this WS in the field and at the plate, so i cant say i disagree... but my only reservation is going back and forth doesnt seem like a good idea. if dyson is gonna play in SF, he needs to play all 3 games. neither of them are really in a rhythm so id say pick one and go with it. dont really care who it is... but its hard to argue defense isnt important especially when aoki has been sucking.

Alex, Moose, and Hos need to be the guys in games 4 and 5 to build us a lead and get to HDH. I really like Moose's approach at the plate, and the way he is swinging the first 2 games.

I like the fact that moose is a lefty and its 309 to the right field corner.

Can we just pause for a moment to appreciate how great Herrera was in the 6th last night? Just great.

Also, what's that nu metal song they blast when Greg Holland enters the game? I love that. I just want to crush some Monster Energy Drink and throw strikes.

FOUND IT GUYS!!!!! 

[Cartierfor3]

Not really my type of music, but I decided to give it a listen in honor of Greg Holland just now and the guy who uploaded it has no time for haters.

Uploaded on Sep 23, 2009
Just another amazing song By the Masterminds of BREAKING BENJAMIN and please stop spamming rough ridin' stupid hate comments. Its just sad. First off, if you dont like bb? Then get the eff over yourself and take the time to delete your youtube account instead of commenting on the video.

when ned switched to this line up we did really good and i want to keep doing really good.  + we owned NL teams in their parks this season.

remember ventura's bunt against the padres, stud

[EMAWmeister]

my favorite part about that numetal song they play for Holland is that they go "It's alllllmoooooost oooooooverrrrrrrrr" implying to the other team that they only have to endure the pain of facing Holland for 3 outs.
