GDT 7/23 Fathers @ Tron

To think some people were arguing he would never be the same again

Mostly trolling haters if I recall. I do remember Giant fans understandably worried about if he'd be ale to catch much or end up at 1B, etc. But he's so young, you heal up fast. If he was 33 when that happened his catching days would have been done.

Big ups to Crawdad for getting tossed with an insolent stomp on 1B and words to that ump.

+1. Loved that.

Man, where's gp and his 'we win' gifs?

 

[iHATEdodgers]

Dynamic Duo sure, but there won't ever be a 'Bonds thing' again IMO. Take the natural talent, add roids, and you get a guy that gets intentionally walked with the bases loaded and hits 7000 HRs.

Rep for bringing up the memories. How the park would freeze, folks would leave the food line they were in for 15 minutes, people would run out of the bathroom without washing, just to see him hit...

Those were definitely good memories. But I prefer this newer cleaner version. This way got us one Championship and hopefully more.

A stress-free win!!

I have to say, Colin has been filling in ably with his own gifs.

It wasn't that long ago that the Padres just owned us, we'd dread every game with 'em. That pen with Adams, Gregerson, Bell. Now they are ours.

I feel like if we lose to them at home at all it's a colossal failure.

So true. I used to dread when the Giants had to play them. It will be interesting to see how they do against Volquez tomorrow.

You can thank me and Ihate for holding down the fort and getting those runs with our positive energy. Personally, I think we both deserve rep

That's right!! We gonna have to start charging entrance fees to this fort if nobody's gonna show up they missed some crazy shit you never see and plus I stole their beer when they weren't looking!

lol good job, sorry I missed the party!

enjoyed the commentary, reps awarded

Yep, closer by committee with gp out, but not skipping a beat with CC

It's nice knowing how many games we get to play them down the stretch. Rocks, Pads, and even the DBax may be sellers and we'll see guys up from the minor leagues in their lineups in September.

Noice! It would be something if they played that on the bigscreen and the crowd did that every time he finished the 7th.
