I wanted to see if I was one of millions reading this Giants blog, and found out although I'm not the only one in the US, there might be only one...in Thailand. Grant has gone international.

Guess I have to write at least 75 words for this to be a legitimate fanpost...In that case, how sad did Tim Lincecum look last night after Jack gave up the game-tying homerun with two outs on the first pitch fastball missed location down the middle of the plate. It looked like someone had run over his little dog and then stopped the car, got out and kicked it to make sure it was dead.

Well, there’s at least one guy in Singapore. Can’t quite remember his name though. Giant Fan in… somewhere…

There’s another dude in the UK too. He’s reprazentin’ since Jpon came back to the States.

"While conservatives tell you 'leave things alone and no one will lose,' and liberals tell you 'interfere a lot and no one will lose,' baseball says 'someone will lose.' Not only says it - but insists upon it! ... Democracy is lovely, but baseball's more mature." BVCE supports SF Dugout and Manny Burriss.

I’ve looked at McC in 4 or 5 different countries… it helps keep me sane. As does all the time missing Giants games…

You mean 4 or 5 other countries have their own McC and you looked at them?

hometownboy is in Japan, although I think he might be in the States now.

Isn’t it funny how common it is to type McCovery?

I do that every time I have to type it in manually, if I’m on a computer that doesn’t have my “favorites.”

I first started going to this site while I was being starved of baseball in China. But I’ve settled in less exotic Sacramento.

That's Awesome

I’m almost 100% sure that I’m the person showing up in Thailand. I’m back in SF now, but I was just on vacation there for the last two weeks. Yes, even on vacation across the globe, I couldn’t stay away from this trainwreck.

Also, no, it was not that kind of “vacation.” You sickos.

Now that I’ve actually visited the link, it’s highly doubtful that all that traffic came from just me. If it did, then I’m even more addicted to you guys than I thought.

Go ahead and say it, “I wish I could quit you.”

Somebody made a nifty graph one time about how many members from where.

The graph is in the link. I mean, it’s in there! How did they fit it in there? I have no idea.

Second most popular place of origin according to the graphic: Unknown! (also second most popular rationale for Giants moves). If Unknown got together with Misc. they’d be like a blogging superpower or something.
