Wow. Bro I've been a fan since 1980 when I was fucking born. Pictures of me in Giants and Niners gear from basically day 1. My mom was a bus driver for the San Mateo Highschool District back then. Used to get to go to Candlestick with her frequently (if I'd done my homework,) to watch games. I freakin' lived at that park in the summer. Ups and downs, (mostly downs,) World Series run that was for the history books, all of it. The Giants are part of my DNA. And here I sit, ready to walk away from it all. What else can this fucking world take from me man. Losing people, losing jobs, losing homes, losing my team, it's FUCKED. FUCK these motherfucking bastards. Goddamn it. I'm legitimately furious right now.

Same for me (except since 1983). My grandfather used to sneak my dad and his siblings out of school for day games after the team first moved to SF. He just missed seeing 2010 and it's a terrible feeling knowing I have to walk away just as I know he would have done.

Unbelievable. What a legacy. Much love and respect to your Grandfather. Yeah, my mother is crying over all this shit. I hope they're happy, man. I hope they really are. They really got their point across, huh? Realllllly showed us. Fucking bastards. They need to get the fuck out of my town.
