New Year's Resolutions

I resolve to give you a pass on this whole business:

"Just kidding. I'm not really going to give Ortmeier a chance. "

I like Danneh. I feel like he's the kid who got picked last for Kickball the whole time, when really he wasn't so bad.

I resolve to enjoy watching the first major league team in history to have eight outfielders on their roster, even during those games when our bullpen gets emptied by the 7th inning.

Just don't write checks for your supply, Grant. Haven't we learned anything from Rondell White?

My resolutions include one where I cannot think of harming people when Matt Cain throws another 1 run gem and loses.

By the look of the way things are currently going, please stay away from me at all costs in '08.

I resolved many year ago to not have any New Year's Resolutions... so that one I'm keeping.

I don't make New Year's resolutions. How can you improve on perfection?

I resolve to be more resolute.

I will eat pizza on 100 different occasions.  Leftovers don't count.

I am visiting my dad in Michigan this summer. They live outside Detroit. I really want to go to a game at Comerica Park while I am out there.

Other baseball goals for the New Year: work hard on covering the draft for SF Dugout before I go on sabbatical for summer semester. I plan on keeping up with the minor league happenings even if I'm not contributing content to the website, too.

I don't make resolutions. I make goals for the upcoming year. I have a slew of personal goals for 2008 and I'm already making progress on a few of them. For starters I passed my driving permit test on Friday so I am closer to have my California driver's license. Yay!

I resolve to not hate Pedro Feliz. I will hate it when we re-sign him, hate it when he's in the lineup, hate it when he swings at balls in the dirt, hate his sub .300 OBP, hate it when he makes a great play in the field but it doesn't matter because he somehow hit into six double plays in one inning earlier in the game, but I'll assume he's a nice guy who means well and I won't hate him personally.

Well, maybe.

Wish me luck, because my resolution is to stop smoking cigarettes.

My resolution is to completely trust what Magowan, Sabean, and Bochy are doing with our beloved Giants.

On second though, my resolution is to care less what the Giants are doing in the standings, and root for at least one  youngster to have a break out campaign.

I resolve to become a marketing partner with the Grizzlies so I can take my clients to see more Ray Durham rehab assignments and more of Ortie playing first base.

I resolve to spend more time on the Double Play Ticket Window trying to get club seats WITH a parking pass (they should be a LOT cheaper this year which will over compensate for the 300 bucks in gas I'll spend getting up to the park)

I resolve to not think once about Zito's contract as he gets pounded in the first three innings of every outing.

I resolve to start the first Aaron Rowen Fan Club in Fresno.... Anybody want to join?

Lastly, I resolve to pay more attention to what Kype and Krukow say this year... Obviously they'll be more entertaining than the actual team!!

Happy New Year, Fellow Giants Fans!!

Matt Cain and Tim Lincecum are nothing. As a 22 year old I threw a no hitter (with 9 strikeouts!) in Wii Baseball using ONLY my splitter. I am the true god of pitching! Wii Baseball proves it.

...cut down on how many blogs I read.  Goodbye, McC!
