Sorry for the Hiatus

Gotta adjust to the high school schedule again. Methinks my posts will be more sporadic now, due to this formula:
4 advanced classes * 7 days > x blogging hours
Some quick notes though, to keep up to date:
  • The Giants just finished off sweeping the Brewers. The Cubs should be thanking us for misplacing our offense when they were in town.
  • G-Rod got his first career big fly in the majors.
  • Rajai Davis has been slumping lately. He was 1-17 or something like that coming into today's game. He was also caught stealing second today.
  • The Giants received Travis Denker, a high A 2B, from the Dodgers in the Sweeney deal. Considering early reports having us getting cash, this is a definite steal.
  • Speaking of Sweeney, he's gone 3-15 ever since getting traded. This further evidences that he is still a Giant.
  • The 49ers were exploited by the Bears yesterday. The defense made Rex Grossman look good. But then he fumbled a snap and threw an interception, so the order of the universe was restored.
  • It doesn't seem like the contract negotiations between the Warriors and Nellie are getting anywhere. I'll be extremely worried if this isn't sorted out by the end of September.
  • The USA basketball team is playing quite well. They've steamrollered over every single one of their opponents by at least 40 points. If they don't win the gold in Beijing next year, I'll be very disappointed.
  • Bayern are now 3-0 with 0 goals conceded in the Bundesliga. Everyone is clicking, but the players are dropping like flies. Toni just went down with a hamstring injury and is sidelined for up to 10 days.
  • Hamit Altintop is astounding. What a threat to have off the bench.
I saved the best news for last:
  • Rich Aurilia, Noah Lowry, Matt Cain, Vinnie Chulk, Kevin Correia, and Tim Lincecum will be guest bartenders at Dolce in San Francisco this coming Wednesday at 7 PM. The cover is $15, and it's a charity event for a boy with spinal muscular atrophy. I'd love to go there and ogle Noah, Matt, and Timmyhelp a worthy cause, but age restrictions and school nights say otherwise. It sucks being my age.
