All kidding aside. Great to have you aboard.

And I'm serious about the thing that happened in '88. I haven't bought a box of Wheaties since they put that picture on the box.
If that's what it takes to cue up a replay of Cedpedes' moonshot, so be it

But seriously, I feel the same way. I cringe everytime my co-worker even mentions her Dodgers (1, for Gibson and 2, for giving away Ethier for Milton effing Bradley). I promise to never utter another word here about said event.

That said, thanks for the warm welcome! I was born and raised in the Bay Area, and can count on one hand how many fellow A's fans were in my class... all were Giants fans, even during the late 80's. We are a rare breed.
