TheGiantsFan Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Just a plain terrible series for the Giants against the Rockies. Three blown saves in a row with just terrible late-inning play these last three games. Hoping we recover soon. BEHANCE | PORTFOLIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninersdd Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Yeah, it would help a lot if they got runs with the bases loaded and no one out and not hit into double playa with RISP. Should be 9.5 up, but only 6.5, ugh. BEAR DOWN ARIZONA!2013/14 Tanks Picks Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBubba Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Gwynn's death has made John Gibbons decide to finally give up chewing tobacco. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soarindude Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Gwynn's death has made John Gibbons decide to finally give up chewing tobacco.What a joke. A sudden realization to quit because Gwynn died from it? Even though He knows about the risks of chewing tobacco (much worse for you than any other form of tobacco, and just plain disgusting) way before he died. Or the millions of other people who probably die from chewing tobacco every year. Sounds to me like a pretty crappy excuse to end your addiction, and probably won't last too long. Basing your decision to quit because of one guy is rather cynical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sudden realization to quit because Gwynn died from it? Anyone deciding to quit something like that, so long as it's a genuine effort, is good regardless of the reason that inspired it.

But good for him, and I hope he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh don't give me a personal example to justify the situation. Sure, if the results are positive from it, I guess it doesn't matter where the motivation came from. But from a objective viewpoint, that's a very selfish way of handling an addiction. Here's to hoping he can cut the chewing tobacco for good.

WHATTell me, what would be an acceptable reason to you for John Gibbons to quit chewing tobacco? If a beloved baseball figure, who he probably knew, dying from it isn't good enough then I don't know what is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I am sure they may have been a few other baseball players that were killed by chewing tobacco, but none with the name of Tony Gwynn. This is now going to be the #1 example that will be used by many players to stop and for baseball to move forward on banning it from the field in the Majors. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
