look guise. I'm not saying anything about Giants fans. I'm just saying your team's sell out streak started October 1, 2010.

and I'm laughing about it.
:lol:



the real point of this post:
the damn Cardinals are looking like they might be ready to tie with the Pirates by the end of the night.
smfh if we draw Pitt.

And yet you guys just clinched the NL West for the 2nd straight year and still struggle to sell out game in and game out, yikes.

I would love to face the Cards in the WC, if we play the Pirates @Pitt then we'll probably lose 5 to 2 or something along those lines.

what exactly is this struggle you're talking about?

you think a team that had 3.6 mill show up this year, 3.7 mill last year and has the 2nd highest road percentage behind the Derek Jeter Farewell Tour this year is "struggling" with anything because they don't sell out every game?

ok.

i DID NOT make an excuse for how your "loyal" fan base began a sell out streak in October of 2010.

reading comprehension please.

It's relevant since most of your fans weren't even born the last time the Dodgers won anything
