45 finals recap ...
(Preview)
StevieLou wanted something short and sweet, which he provided. Others wanted more detail. Part of the reason is that Giants Manager Steve Lounello refuses credit. He pins a player after each game - win or lose. He actually has thumb-nail sized pins that say "New York'' on each of them. Players v...

Congrats Giants!
(Preview)
A big congrats to the 45+ Giants team for their league championship victory. It hurts to lose in the finals to these guys every year, but at the same time you have to admire their talent and leadership. Steve Lou dominated on the mound in game 1 with a 1 hitter striking out 9 or 10 (I lost count). Folks - our l...
