Thursday Night From The Good Seats

Through a friend, I scored 5 seats in the owners' section behind on the Giants' dugout.  Since I had my seats, I took Goofus Jr. and seven of his teammates from his Pony League (13 & 14 year-olds) team.  Even though it was just pre-season, it was a lot of fun sitting in these seats.  Half the kids sat with me in these seats for the first half of the game and then we switched so all the kids ended up getting to sit in there.  I'll post pics some pics here are some pics I took from the evening.

The big kid in the lower right is a very good 1B and can crush the ball. The kid next to him in the gray sweatshirt and the kid in the back row with no cap and the blond hair both pitch and both have howitzers for arms.

You should tie their right hands behind their backs until they can throw lefty. $126,000,000 out there for mediocre starting pitching these days

That’s the same rate for shitty LH starting pitchers too.

Don't think, it could only hurt the ballclub.

I think that is why he ties the right arm back so they are forced to use their left arm.

Yeah, I’ve never been career-dedicated enough to try and become a “captain of industry” as I enjoy my time away from work too much, but having enough money to own a baseball team and sit here all the time would be awfully cool.

Your new left side of the infield. Pablo had two errors, but both here just not played into his glove well. Neither were the result of him being too heavy to play 3rd.

Are "they're" any other facts you'd like to clear up?

Thanks for your expertise and knowledge. The fact that you’ve seen Magowan and Baer sit “their” a lot means that other seats in the area couldn’t possibly belong to owners as well, even though the the team lists two general partners and 28 more principal partners on “there” website.

Tone?

I shared my experience sitting in owners’ seats. You felt it was necessary to say, “for the record”, where the “actual” owners’ seats are. In essence, your point was “Hey Goofus, you’re full of shit. Those aren’t actual owners’ seats.” Having been called a liar, I pointed out that there are numerous owners and they have seats besides that one row front row.

Now you say that you were merely explaining the nuanced difference between the seats belonging to primary partners and principal partners. Excuse me for being a little skeptical.

I won’t be posting in this thread again. For the record, I wasn’t calling you a liar. I only thing of the owners as (then)Magowan, (now), Nuekem, Larry Baer and Sue Burns. I thought you were either mistaken or given bad information, Goofus. What I didn’t appreicate was having my grammar corrected like that (Natto was OK because I was doing the same stupid thing every stupid time). So you aren’t a liar but I think being an asshole stands.

More drama in this place than your typical soap opera. ENOUGH ALREADY!!
I come here to escape the drama in my workplace, home life, etc….not to see petty disagreements escalate into full-scale flame wars. Again, I’m far from one to be saying this…but there comes a point where you just have to draw a line and say ENOUGH.

Let’s just wait for the season to get underway so we can aim all flamethrowers at Brian Sabean for some shit-headed move, or whatever annoying “roaming-the-park” hack FSN will be using to seel the “fan-experience” while televising a game.

Agreed.

..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.

and no more spelling corrections, either. Right after I correct that peace loving hippie Pac Bell Boozer for saying “seel the fan experience” and still referring to Comcast Sports Bay Area as FSN.

you don’t scare me!! (especially since I live 3000 miles away) However, on my next trip to San Francisco I’m going to register at the hotels as rxmiester just so you don’t know it’s me. By the way, along the lines of my last correction, shouldn’t you now be ATTBoozer?

Don’t forget about the blow. How can you have hookers and not any blow?

He kissed them too. All four of them, right on the lips. Probably right after one of them did the Shamwow guy too!! Goofus, how did like the taste of those nuts?

They tasted great. Those nuts were German and everyone knows they make good stuff.

A person in the crowd shouts to the umpire:

“your mom was right! you did go blind!”

I will heckle you until you crack. If you're an umpire and get the call wrong be prepared for a voice that will echo in your ears.

Easy big fella just have another beer.

By the way it’s CSN not FSN now.

My last post on the matter as well

OK, you weren’t trying to call me out as a liar and I apologize for accusing you of doing so.

Nonetheless, if you go around McCoveyChronciles trying to tell people that they’re wrong about something when they’re not, don’t be shocked if you get a snarky reply.

Snark? On McCovey Chronicles? No ’effin way.

Let’s bring this thread back to what it was originally about. A great night out at the yard. Opening Day is 2 days, 15 hours, 19 minutes and 58 seconds away!

Hope it changes by then…would hate to ride the train all the way there for a rainout/delay

Rain’s a liar!
