PrintIn a Sabean Vs Colletti head-to-head no holds barred matchup of who has the more ignominious trading history, I think Sabean wins by a nose. Of course, he has been doing this for longer and is probably nearing the end of his Giants tenure so.... I like Colletti's upside.

I don’t know if you guys listen to KNBR during games much… I have to cause I don’t have cable when I’m not off at school.. but what do you guys think about JT Snow’s commentary?
If my head is full of white hairs by the end of this season.. I blame Brian Wilson. (I'm only 22, dammit!)
Kuip sounded awful when he first started too. He will learn. I think Aurilia will be a really good announcer if he so chooses to enter that field when he’s done playing.

This is a good time to raise a real hardcore Giant fan. If he can love this team, he can survive anything.
I was born in 1980, so I figure he and I are starting out with the Giants in similar states. So, we should be back in the World Series by 2015!

When Heath Ledger died, so did Brad Renfro and another actor (cant remember the name)
A couple weeks ago, 3 people I knew died.
Now, Bernie Mac, Isaac Hayes, and soon Paul Newman.

Seems unlikely that there is some sort of cosmic force killing three famous people at a time. Who were George Carlin’s other two?
I don't actually believe
that they all happen in 3’s. It’s just an odd coincidence I’ve noticed lately.

Haha the 1993 Classic Giants game I watched the other night in the home opener against the Marlins, Mike Benjamin hit a 2 run homer. I laughed.
I really hope Paul Newman doesn’t die. He is my favorite. I still refuse to believe he has cancer. :(
