Deal... I never liked "SBC Park" anyway

(BTW, would he be open to changing his name to "Candlestick" ?)

Rooster Stadium or BlueRooster Stadium. Those are your choices.

OK Dave, I guess Ralper earned his 10%.

Rooster Stadium it is! (Giants' fans would never accept anything "blue"... too Dodger-like)

I'll leave the contracts and the jr. high work/study-absent forms on Mr. Magowan's desk for him to sign in the AM.

Just got back from the first-half championship game. Mike pitched the whole game, 6 innings - 2 hits- 0 runs- no walks- 14 strikeouts....we won 5-0 which gives me as coach the privilege of coaching the team for Avon in the Little League World Series....not sure if I want to do that yet or not.

Go for it!!! Much better than regretting not doing it later. Best of luck to you both.

(of course if he's injured, SBC Park will remain SBC Park )

Not sure if I want to because there are better fundamental coaches right here in town than me. Also, working 70-80 hrs a week, doesn't leave enough time to spend with the team.

If you can land me a job at SBC Park that's let's say 40 hrs a week, for around 100K, I might be able to talk to Mike's agent (Ralper), about taking a serious look at the Giants.

It's your turn to step up to the plate, Drewchie.

Congrats Dave and Mike!

Dave - I agree with drewchie - GO FOR IT! As far as the coaching, can't you get one of them to assist you?

I'd better say yes quickly... if not, Rob will make me name you club president!

and Matrix is right (first time for a Berlina!) get one of the others to assist you. (Maybe a co-manager) It's a great opportunity for you and your son to share something special.

Excellent idea. Dave gets to be club president. Put it in the contract.
