I guess it depends on how many the Giants plan to give up in the bottom of the inning.

One solution

start drinking the wine at lunch

by Moggeee on Sep 2, 2008 9:13 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

But we already do

In other words, start drinking heavily during Zito starts, before the plane leaves for Colorado.

by Moggeee on Sep 2, 2008 9:14 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Best suggestion.
