I Love Baseball - even these guys!

What sports do I watch regularly these days? The question came up this past Sunday when my family was over celebrating my birthday. Lauri said that she considered herself a sports widow for the first 10 years or so we were married and I didn't think I had changed my viewing habits that much. However (upon further review) I know that I have changed quite a bit in three ways. I don't watch nearly any basketball these days since I don't play anymore.

I also don't watch much football since the 49ers went bad. I'm not the only one in this boat...

The third major change has been the fairly recent advent of DVR technology. The actual time spent watching games has been shortened considerably - I think I watch SJ Sharks hockey games in about 15 minutes now and some baseball games in 30 minutes.

The Giants are still my favorite sports team playing my favorite sport and I will watch every game I can. Bengie Molina just homered against LA to tie the score at 1-1. Life is good again.

PS-ugh, the Giants ended up losing that game to the hated Dodgers. Road trip was not kind to the boys in orange and black ... 0-6.
