After Giants’ World Series Win, San Francisco Erupts in Riots - Polidicks

They are trashing San Francisco because they won? When we win shit at football we usually just block all the streets by driving slow, honking and waving flags around but this wow.

I'm not surprised by this at all.

Baseball, what a riot huh guys?

Lol I remember when my dad (fireman) told me about when the Bulls won the championship. He never slept and barely had time to eat with all the runs he got. There were things as violent as pbabies trampled in the street to a random burning shoe in the middle of Pulaski Ave.

[QUOTE=StupidUsername67;25802335]You've apparently never seen sport riots in Europe. You'd think a war broke out.[/QUOTE] Football Hooligans in the 80's in the UK and Hooligans in the 90's/00's in Europe are prime examples.

Sounds like Europe.

[QUOTE=Doozle;25804897]Why do they call it the World Series, when only America competes?[/QUOTE] Because... It is. :smug:

Go GAINTS WOOOOOOO! Fuck you Texas! WOOOOOOOO!

[QUOTE=Lust;25802311]YEAH WE WON, SO LETS TRASH OUR TOWN. Only in America.[/QUOTE] British people riot all the time regardless if their soccer team wins or loses, the fuck are you smoking? Hell, even Russians riot over their trivial sports. All you want to do is cause a flame war.

[quote]Don't some football players get killed in England for losing sometimes too?[/quote] That actually made me chuckle. No.

Dude! Philadelphia didn't even get that bad in '08 when we won.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;25802090]Sports are obviously serious business.[/QUOTE] Nobody gives a fuck about baseball around where I live but if it were the Atlanta Falcons to win the Super Bowl, then who knows.

[QUOTE=BGOmega;25810714]Dude! Philadelphia didn't even get that bad in '08 when we won.[/QUOTE] hahahahah, this is true. We had some bad shit though. A few stores were looted and some idiots tried to overturn a bus. and we got this [img]http://graneyandthepig.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/phillyfans2.jpg[/img] Oh and this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfEq8K5GtlM[/media]

[QUOTE=Anax;25804985]Apparently, because it involves the best people from all over the world that were brought into their team. So when it's the final bracket, it's called the World series, because there's only 2 teams left full of people from around the world. So basically, it's not just people directly from America that play in MLB, there's people from Asia, Mexico, etc.[/QUOTE] That's like calling the Premier League, the World Cup because it contains the best footballers from around the world.

Pfffft. If this is San Fransisco, imagine what Arlington, strike that, the Tarrant County would've been like had the Rangers won.

I didn't think anybody in California watched baseball. Baseball sucks.

[QUOTE=gamefreek76;25815294]I didn't think anybody in California watched baseball. Baseball sucks.[/QUOTE] you suck

[QUOTE=Brett Favre;25815308]you suck[/QUOTE] Shut up farve. Go lose another superbowl.

And yet, still nobody cares about Baseball. Good job San Francisco. Your worthless team beat another team at a sport nobody gives a crap about.

[QUOTE=PvtCupcakes;25815994]And yet, still nobody cares about Baseball. Good job San Francisco. Your worthless team beat another team at a sport nobody gives a crap about.[/QUOTE] MLB is the second most popular professional sport, behind the overrated football. i mean, a bunch of guys on a field running around and getting ontop of eachother, how gay is that??

They are rioting because they are all drunk and happy. Doesn't seem that complex. How do you guys not get this?
