Current Connection #tres (three for you white folk)

One of the most important events in human history happened to occur approximately 2 weeks ago and for the second time in the past three years! Of course I'm talking about the Champion San Francisco Giants winning the World Series. The World Champion Giants faced elimination 6 times on their road to the World Series and upon reaching the home stretch of their phenomenal post season to ultimately sweep the ALCS Champion Detriot Tigers.
The Giants climbed back from being down 0-2 in the Divisional Series against the Cincinnati Reds and down 1-3 in the Conference Series against the defending champion St. Louis Cardinals. People from every corner of the world counted the Giants out. A team that couldn't lead in the playoffs should not stand a chance against the ALCS Champions who swept their own advisarries, the Yankees.
The Giants backs were to the walls constantly. They kept getting knocked down and yet they got right back up swinging away. A little Rocky Balboa mentality goes a long way. The Giants would go on to capture their 2nd World Series since moving to San Francisco in '58 and along the way, inspiring millions to never give up no matter how impossible the task at hand may seem. I, being a former resisdent of the Bay, was also delighted to witness the Giants steamroll their way over the Tigers.
