Rockies rout hapless Giants' pitching staff 14-11

In a sad display of chaos, the small men embarrassed themselves once again, at one point walking in two straight runs. The diminutive ones now drop back to two games behind in the wild card.

It was reported that manager Bruce Boche was seen to have reached for the Tums several times during this mess. Poor guy.

1. How come you're never around when the Giants win?

Even more telling, you usually disappear when things are going bad for the Dodgers. I could call you a coward or something equally unflattering, but seeing as how you are a Dodger fan busy worshiping a documented cheater, I should think that's understood.

As to the game, I thought they were using a humidor in Colorado...you wouldn't know it by the HRs that were flying out. It looked like a typical Coors Field game..not REAL baseball.

The Giants got a split after using their #4 and #5 starters, I'll take it.

2. Not real baseball?

Gee, Upton, by that you would think they were using the DH or playing on astro turf.

All they were doing was playing at an elevation above 5000 ft.

Then there is your accusation that our colleague is unmanly for not posting his team's losses and for worshiping Manny Ramirez. Really? It would appear that you have the sense of irony of a loyal Bushie criticizing a banana republic like Iran over a stolen election.

I just thought I'd help you out with the daily Giants report. Considering the Giants blew a 6-1 lead, I figured you'd be too emotionally exhausted to post tonight. You try to be nice.....:(

I guess the Giants went for two point conversion at the end in a vain attempt to make it a one-possession game.

6. How come you never start threads when they lose?

Even more telling, you disappear when things are going well for the Dodgers. I could call you a coward or something equally unflattering, but seeing as you are a Giants fan busy worshiping a documented cheater, I should think that's understood.

3. It looks like the Giants' staff wasn't the only one to get pounded in that game today.
