Football season is around the corner, and Niners Nation is going strong. Some of the regulars here moonlight as regulars there. If you can't get enough HowTheyScored, here's your chance. If you absolutely can get enough HowTheyScored...he, uh, doesn't post there.
The analysis is great, and so is the community. Go and register as a Niners Nation user today!
Also, if one or both of your parents did not love you, it's possible that you are a Raiders fan. In that case, please note that there is a support group at Silver and Black Pride.

I dont understand everyone’s excitement over Rohlinger. He hit .235 last year in low A. He hit good this year but I’d rather see him sustain this hitting in Triple A. Shoot me, but I kinda wanna see McClain. I know he’s old but I always feel bad for that guy.

Mmm, sushi.
My wife’s pregnant and pregnant women aren’t supposed to eat sushi. Which means I’m not supposed to either.

Yum! I should make a veg jambalaya one of these days.
Here it’s just cheating for dinner: Trader Joe’s orange chicken, steamed jasmine rice, and broccoli.

Do you folks think Omar could hit a homer off of Misch?

Which is more likely
An inside-the-park homer by Molina, or a standard homer by Vizquel?
