Intro

Well, I now have a blog. I set this up only so I could post comments on other blogs, namely the Giants one found at http://tampabaygiants.com/, created by Sam and I guess Brad.

You may see an origional post here or there, if I think something is worth mentioning, or if I come up with something that I think is funny. Probably what will happen is I'll be into it for a while, and post all sorts of shit that I believe to be funny/newsworthy/witty/something I want to rant about. Then I will realize that nobody reads this thing, and posts will drop off exponentially. Then again, I just saw something on facebook where you can direct your blog right into your facebook account. So maybe people will see it. Who knows.

If you are not a Giants fan, you might be confused as to what the hell the title of this blog is about. It is in reference to then Giants right-fielder Jose Cruz Jr dropping a routine flyball late in the decisive game of the 2003 divisional playoffs against the Marlins. The error ultimately cost the Giants the game, and hence their eventual World Series title. A somewhat frustrating end to a 100 win season in which they were not for one day out of first place.

Oh yea, and this happened a year after they blew the previous World Series by coughing up a 5 run lead in the 7th inning of Game 6. So you can see why I was a tad bit upset with Jose Cruz Jr.
