how about you start a gameday thread for game six, replete with enthusiasm and ws ring ecstasy for the first 7 innings or so. Then, everyone turns off the game around the eighth inning and collectively rewrites history?

It’ll be creative, it’ll be beautiful…sobs

Honestly I dont know why people can’t get over this. The way I see it 2003 was much worse. Or 2000. Or 98. Or 97. Or 93. Or 89. Or 87.

My God the Giants are cursed. :(

I think one reason why 2002 doesn’t hurt as bad for me is that I can give credit to the Angels for coming out of the hole and beating us. All these other years were pure heartbreak because we beat ourselves with horrible mistakes or flukes or whatever else. 2003 we don’t even need to discuss Pudge (FUCKING DIE) or Jose Cruz Jr. 2000…J.T. hits that dramatic HR and Felix blows the lead, and wasn’t it Edgardo who beat him? No wonder Sabes signed him. 2000 was just fucking awful. Bobby Jones?! Really? Bobby fucking Jones. Then of course Neifi’s miracle HR on Nen’s fastball right down the middle when Coors was a joke. Cubs and Beck and sigh :(. 97, Wilson Alvarez FAIL, we got beat by a pitcher who’s career literally ended in the same postseason for Florida. 89…earthquake. We were the only NL underdog team that couldn’t score on the A’s pitching staff. Nor could our pitching shut them down. Though to be fair both Cincy and LA probably had way better pitching than we did in 90 and 88. And 87 was just cruel. Poor Dravecky. :( Though I doubt we could have beat Minnesota when they were so ridiculously good at home. And oh of course ’62 was awful luck too. Meh.
