Or not!
I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

I’ve done my part. Why do I feel like Uncle Barry is still staring at me?
If you can get 3:2 on a headline of "Giants Pitcher Assaults General Manager" at some point this year, take it.

I'm a bit confused
Is the Panda tripping from looking at cake a Non-Gameday Image? If it is a Gameday Image, I vote for that.

I found it on the atlanta braves blog when we played them a few days before that game. I dunno who made it but I don’t remember anybody posting it before that.

The Win Now series is really a work of art. They should be displaying it in a gallery at the SFMOMA.

The Win Now series is really excellent—heady and rooted in pop culture. It gets my vote.
Props to everyone who creates these images. I miss most of the gameday threads, but at least page down through them for a peek at the images the next day.

I BORKed for BORK. Although BORK did do a great BORK with his BORK. I feel BORK BORKed the BORK. BORK you crash, but BORK was just too BORK

I’m really surprised that none of the WIN NOWs included pie, or some other, less worthy food item, given the nature of this community.

I hereby throw my support behind WIN NOW
The madness of gameday threads, summed up perfectly each day in picture form.
I still believe in Bowkermania.

It’s Bork for me. It was a much greater indication of this last season.
Plus I helped nominate it.

I wanted to vote for the Swedish Chef, because that’s freakin’ awesome… But Win Now has to take the cake.
I'm thinking but nothing's happening.

That image must WIN NOW
One great thing about the Win Now series was its accessibility. If you felt it needed, say, a kitchen sink, then poof! A kitchen sink would magically appear.

It’s almost not fair to have Win Now in this poll because there were so many of them. It should be compared to other customizable/serialized memes (e.g. Zito family pictures or the photos with all the mods).
I had to vote for Peek Into the Dugout because it combined Timmy, swearing, and Bork—and it just seemed to come out of nowhere.

I liked that one
mostly because I liked the video for a week or so before someone pointed out the Bork in it, which I hadn’t noticed.
Another strong field.
