HERstory 6


When I was growing up there was a rivalry going on in our house. A's or the Giants.

Michael was a true A's fan, but I believe my mom was the Giants fan... or maybe it was me. I love baseball and loved going to them even if it was the bleachers. I do not remember going to the baseball games as a young child , but do have memories of it when I was married to the man buried in the vineyard....
at one time under the Z...

Anyway.. I loved the atmosphere and to this day I remember Jose Uribe... because we used to chant when he came to bat.... U...ribe , U...ribe.... but Charise didn't get it and chanted...

Ribe....U, Ribe...U.

The hotdogs, garlic fries and cold malts all have a part in these wonderful memories... but I have noticed all my good memories have food in them...

So I put it to my family... why don't we go to a Giants game this summer? I know Steven and Monica will go with me... but anyone else?

We brought you to the A's game a few times. Michael loved them. But, i don't remember who we went with.
Wild, I mean Wild horses, couldn't drag me to a baseball game unless I was at least 3 days dead.
No thanks, crowds, noise, confusion, and the fact that I don't enjoy baseball. Maybe its the organ, or the actual game, could it go a n y s l o w e r ?????

But hey, thanks for the offer.

LOL! Tell me how you really feel now... don't hold back.

Organ?

Now they have music and electricity...no more candles...

It is a lot of fun!

Could we please plan it when Zito is not pitching? Please? Please?Please!?!?!?

I can't wait to see the new guys like Bowker, Bocock and others!

Monica said...

oh yeah it needs to bemanditory that zito is NOT pitching! GOSH i hate that guy.
you know ernie, i think he is being paid by hte a's to pitch bad. how else do you go from being a great picther to SUCKING SO BAD!!
its not like he changed climate or anything! JEEZE!

i cant wait to see bowker play, they didnt play him at the gam we went to cause he is a lefty and the "UNIT" was pitching and he is a lefty. I know he would have done well!
