Since the Giants were pretty disappointing on the field this year, why not get that sunken Giants fan in your life a little something to remind them why they were so smitten with this lovable band of misfits in the first place? Even the darkest, rainiest January days will seem brighter when your DVD collection includes an entire season of Barry Zito doing yoga. Or Barry Zito with a mustache. Or Barry Zito talking about his pink underwear. Or Barry Zito talking about interior decorating. Or Barry Zito talking about anything, really. more ›

And you thought Charmed was just a TV show! You could be forgiven for thinking you'd stepped into an alternate universe where sexy-witchies Piper, Phoebe, and Paige actually still lived in San Francisco with all the Alyssa Milano sightings around town this week. (We all still mourn the untimely death of sister Prue (Shannen Doherty), of course.) more ›

We've given up our dislike of this whole interleague baseball thing years ago when we realized that things like the Yankees coming to town for a series against the Gints is a pretty cool thing. The same with a set in Fenway also coming this summer. As for the yearly Melee by the Bay, we've sort of acquired a feeling of meh towards the whole thing. It's done every year so there's really not that much of a difference between this series and, say, a Giants/Phillies series or an A's/Indians series. more ›

Sharks 3 Predators 1- San Jose took an all important 2-1 lead in the series against the Predators with an offensive onslaught, getting off 41 shots while holding the Predators to only 19 shots. The Sharks actually were down 1-0 going into the second period when they got goals from Milan Michalek and Ryane Clowe. Patrick Marleau added the insurance goal with about 4 minutes left to play. Also of note is that while the previous games were full of nasty hits and nasty accusations, this game was a little less chippy . more ›

Here's the thing about Opening Day-- it's like Christmas Day for baseball fans. You wake up and get to unwrap the shiny new pitcher, shiny new manager, and shiny new lineup. And this Opening Day? It was like getting socks. Ugly, too short, socks that you would never wear in a million years. That’s the kind of feeling a 7-0 shutout loss will do to you. more ›

-We'll say this about the Warriors-- they got some gumption. After a series of not so great games and the shellacking at the hands of the Spurs, the Warriors went out and beat the mighty Suns. They started off scoring 45 points in the first quarter and then held onto win 124-119. J-Rich scored 36 points, 24 of them on 8 three- point plays. Stephen Jackson had 29 points and Brittle Baron had 21. They are now only a game behind the Clips for the last and final playoff spot. more ›

-Cal took down #4 ranked UCLA in their quarterfinal match of the Pac 10 tournament. They had a big lead at halftime and blew the big lead but managed to hold on to force overtime. It sounds like a great game, actually, as UCLA fought their way back and then the teams traded leads up until the end. They now go to the quarterfinals and play #16 ranked Oregon. At 16-16, Cal has no way of making the Tourney unless they win the Pac 10 Tournament which seemed impossible before, but... more ›
