Idiot On The Field Gets A Knee To The Neck And A Face Full Of Dirt
I'm not sure if these San Francisco bros had a clear plan in mind when they rushed the field at last night's Reds-Giants game, but if they did I don't think it involved eating the warning track....

Seagulls Are Invading AT&T Park And Shitting Everywhere
With AT&T Park being built next to the water, seagulls are bound to show up and stop by some San Francisco Giants games as they wind down. Lately, though, the gulls have been visiting in greater numbers, and they're fucking everything up....

Tim Lincecum Hurls No-Hitter In 148-Pitch Performance
It took an arm-breaking effort, but Tim Lincecum is the latest pitcher to no-hit an opponent as the Giants hurler shut down the Padres in San Diego tonight thanks to 13 strikeouts (and four walks)....

NTSB Blames “Summer Intern” For Confirmation Of Fake Asiana 214 Names
That epic prank that someone pulled on Bay Area TV station KTVU? The National Transportation Safety Board is blaming a “summer intern” for their part in it....

Pranked TV Station Reports “Ho Lee Fuk,” “Wi Tu Lo” As SF Crash Pilots
Bay Area Fox affiliate KTVU purportedly learned the names of the flight crew of Asiana flight 214, which crashed last Saturday at San Francisco International Airport, killing two. These—"Sum Ting Wong," "Wi Tu Lo," "Ho Lee Fuk," and "Bang Ding Ow"—are not their names. The newscaster's credulous rea...

Police: Chad Gaudin Groped A Woman On A Gurney In An ER
Giants reliever Chad Gaudin is charged with one count of open and gross lewdness, after an incident at a Las Vegas emergency room way back in January. It's a bizarre story that has somehow been kept quiet for six months....

This Giants Security Guard Keeps Getting In The Way
Poor guy. He's just down there in the left field corner doing his job. A job that involves standing around all night, staying alert, and trying to keep his antennae up in case some asshole throws something or interferes with play or behaves like a drunken lout. Now he's got to figure out what the he...

The 49ers’ Anthony Davis Just Gave Away His Dog On Twitter
Trend story! Last week, it was the OKC Thunder's Kendrick Perkins. Today, it was Niners offensive tackle Anthony Davis....

Get A Load Of This Fucking Giants Fan
This fucking guy was spotted at a Giants game earlier this season. Our tipster provides further details:...


Remember Former 49ers RB Glen Coffee? He's An Army Paratrooper Now.
Glen Coffee's single year as a 49er may qualify as one of the strangest NFL careers. The summer after a promising 2009 rookie year, in which the third-round pick out of Alabama filled in nicely for an injured Frank Gore, Coffee up and quit. God didn't want him to play football, he said in brief and ...

San Jose Sues MLB For Not Letting The A's Move
San Jose is ready for the A's. They've got a plot of land. They're willing to finance a new stadium. Hell, there's already a stadium naming rights deal waiting. But nothing can happen until the Giants sign off or MLB gets off its ass, neither of which seem immediately likely. So it's lawsuit time....

Dodgers Fan Gives Lesson In Fandom During Fifth-Grade Graduation Speech
We don't have much background info to go with this video, but it looks like young Casey was asked to share his favorite memory from the past year during his fifth-grade graduation ceremony. Casey flips the script, though, and chooses to talk about his least-favorite memory: the day the Giants won th...

The Padres' Will Venable Made One Of The Best Catches Of The Season
Bear with our hyperbole on this one. Because there was what Will Venable did—sprinting back toward the wall and laying out to make a backhanded catch over his head, à la Jim Edmonds—and there was the situation in which he did it....

No One Notices The Spurs Because No One Notices San Antonio
Here's a working barstool-grade theory as to why, during its dynastic run to four (perhaps soon five) titles since 1999, America still embraces the San Antonio Spurs with a yawn and a why are you still here? squint. This phenomenon has flustered if not baffled sports cognoscenti for years. But they ...

Yes, That's Jim Harbaugh On <em>Judge Judy</em>
Jim Harbaugh may be a master of rage, but when he attended a taping of fake justice program Judge Judy he was all smiles....

Ángel Pagán's Walk-Off Inside-The-Park Home Run Was Just Foolish
So this is what the San Francisco Giants do. Sort of. They lead the majors with seven walk-off home runs already this year, so we guess that they found a way to win at home to the Rockies even when they were down 5-4 in the 10th inning shouldn't be too much of a surprise. This, though, wasn't just a...

Michael Crabtree Tore His Achilles, Could Miss The Season
Per USA Today's Mike Garafolo, 49ers receiver Michael Crabtree tore his Achilles during organized team activities yesterday. A source also told Garafolo that Crabtree will soon have surgery, and that the injury could be serious enough to keep Crabtree from playing this season....
