Nazi Bars and Zionist Baseball Teams

 Most folks have heard the adage about a Nazi that goes into a bar and orders a beer and, if he isn't thrown out, eventually that bar will become a Nazi bar because decent people will NOT hang out around with Nazis.

I've been a San Francisco Giants baseball fan for 30+ years now. I've gone to many games including the last ever game at Candlestick before they moved to Pacbell or whatever the hell its called this season in the city. I went to the second ever game at the new park and first night game. My kids played in the Junior Giants league, we've done Fanfests, we've run the bases and done the stadium tour and played wiffle ball against the outfield wall (which was pretty freaking awesome).

The Giants signed a new outfielder in this off season. He is of Jewish descent but was born in and has grown up in America. He chose to play for Team Israel in this year's World Baseball Classic. He is a Zionist supporting Israel's genocide and theft of Palestine and Israel's war expansions and everything else Israel inflicts on the world by being the absolute worst bunch of lying, murderous, thieving scum ever. Zionists are a plague on humanity fomented by Jews having been persecuted by Hitler and Germany in WWII, they simply became everything they hate and are "giving" that back to the world in the form of genocide, hate and land theft.

If you do not loudly and aggressively condemn Israel's violence then you are condoning it. I do NOT hate Jewish people, I DO hate Zionists, any attempts to conflate the two is intentional BY the Zionists to provide cover while they continue to murder and steal and anyone saying they are the same is intentionally doing work for the Zionists and can be told to fuck all the way off. The Giants, by signing him, have condoned Israel's violence. The Giants are now part of the Zionist PR machine doing their small part in continuing to enable and allow a GENOCIDE by giving a Zionist a place on their team and on the field.

Again, this is not a condemnation of Judaism, it is 100% a condemnation of the hate-based offshoot of Judaism known as Zionism. I am NOT anti-Semitic, I AM 100% ANTI-ZIONIST.

I don't need to name him and won't.

The result of this fascist hater being signed to the Giants is that I will not have a single damned thing to do with this team until he's gone and maybe not even then.

If you sign a Zionist, you have a Zionist team. I know there are good and decent players on the Giants but unless there is a revolt and the Zionist is kicked the hell off the team, they are complicit in doing PR for Israel's GENOCIDE.

Because of his signing, I will not wear a Giants hat anymore, I will not wear Giants apparel, I will not listen to or watch Giants baseball games.

Do I think the Giants care at all? No, of course not, but I care and I cannot and will not support Nazi bars OR Zionist baseball teams.

Hands Down, Rookie of the Yearrrrrrr!

Congratulations to Gerald "Buster" Posey for not only being a major part of the 2010 World Champion San Francisco Giants success but he has also snagged the rather coveted National League Rookie of the Year award honors as well.

The title, for the few fans that haven't seen it yet, is a riff from Ashkon's absolute crushing of Don't Stop Believing. If you have not gone and listened/watched yet then you should go and do that now, you can come back here when you're done.

He is truly a man beyond his years. He carries himself like he's been playing in the majors his whole life. He's even keeled, he's humble, he's a team player and he's a 100% Giants giant.

Unlike the ridiculous Gold Glove awarded to Derek Jeter last week when it was clear that he wasn't even a top 5 Shortstop this season, the Rookie of the Year is incredibly hard to win because there are always some incredible talents coming up. And there is no inertia, there is no "He's won it before so he should win it again" bullshit like Jeter's Gold Glove. There is what he did on the field, what he meant to his team and his production.

Buster's main competition was Jason Heyward of the Atlanta Braves who had a stellar year for his first go-around in the bigs. But he also had alot more at-bats and barely edged out Posey in the stats. Heyward also plays an easier position in the outfield as compared to Buster catching one of, if not the, best pitching staffs in the majors.

At the end of the day, I'm extremely happy for Buster Posey and for all that means to the team. I'm looking forward to many years of seeing him calmly running the games behind the dish. In fact, can we just skip the off-season and start up with baseball now? I already miss it!

Black and Orange 'til I die! Indeed.

The Awesome at AT&T Park

I warned my Twitter followers that nearly all of my tweets during the playing of the World Series would be about the Giants and that they were welcome to unfollow me if that was a problem. I also warned the ones I follow that if they over-tweet about anything BUT the Giants in the World Series, they risked being unfollowed.

One person I'd recently started following was on the bubble already and his three tweets in less than a minute about some other event got him dropped like a hot friggin' rock. Sorry, I'm all about the Giants right now and tough crap if you're not down with that.
