We Heart Tim

i’m usually the type of person who expresses frustration over certain SF Giants players because i care so much and i KNOW they’re better than that. so with tim lincecum’s first start this year, i kinda waved it off as it being first day jitters. by his second start, i was a bit concerned yet i used the same excuse. brushed it off as jitters. but everything after that, i became upset. its quite silly of me to be expressing this much emotion over someone i can’t control, never met, and dont know personally but hey being a baseball fan does that to you. so i started hating on the guy. calling him washed up, has-been, dumbass, etc in hopes that reverse psychology would help into turning his terrible season around. tonight, i really feel for the guy. reading obnoxious tweets really got me down. don’t write this guy off yet. he didn’t win 2 Cy Youngs for nothing. and the guy contributed BIG in winning this city a world series title and you’re gonna say shit like that? i know this isnt it for lincecum. i could feel it. hey, maybe this year isnt his year and with all he’s accomplished, he deserves to have at least one bad year. i think timmy loves being a giant and he isnt stupid. he’s aware of what people might be thinking of him and i know he wants to make it all better.

“i’m so proud of you. everything’s adding up. you’ve been through hell and back that’s why you’re bad as fuck and you know you are”

from Anon:

Can I confess something? I’m creeped out by the amount of older women (some of whom might be married) who lust after Timmy. There is a woman around the internet in New York right now trying to seek his attention who bad mouths teenage girls for doing the same things she’s doing like making signs and pushing children for his autograph. YOU ARE 40 YEARS OLD AND MARRIED, BITCH. also, lay off the constant cryptic messages on his facebook page. Go Timmy, you’ll get it back tomorrow and all will be right in the world :-)

-PEOPLE WHO SAY “ONLY TRUE FANS DON’T HATE ON LINCECUM”. how about the fans who care about the SF GIANTS first and then lincecum? it is my nature as someone who loves their team to rag on a player who isn’t doing what he’s supposed to. we all hated on zito as a group. no one showed him the “Its ok, he’ll get better” treatment that we’re showing timmy.

sorry, timmy I love you and all but I gotta stay true to my team. if you want my ass kissing back, you better FUNCTION babe.

this girl has a point and i respect it.

we’ll be here all night :-)

From freakishslavery:

Tim is such an amazing person inside and out. When he has a rough outing, he takes credit for it. When he has a good outing and the defense/offense doesn’t come through for him, he still takes the blame. He takes pride in what he does - which is more than some former players can say - and is always looking for a way to improve. He went 0-5 in August of 2010, and then came back to dominate all the way through November to bring the Bay Area its first World Series Championship. He is a competitor to the end - he is a stand-up guy to the grave. San Francisco has something very special in him, no matter what his stats say.

Lincecum’s problems — don’t expect them to continue

Tim Lincecum maintains that there’s nothing to worry about. So does manager Bruce Bochy.

You would expect both of them to say that, but it’s not just the Giants who believe Lincecum’s 0-2 record and 10.54 ERA through…

Thank you horrorfanforever for being our first submitted post!

“I freakin’ love Timmy and I feel so bad that he’s going through a rough time right now. I wonder if there is added pressure because he just negotiated such an enormous paycheck too. The truth is, he’s still an amazing pitcher. His bad days are better than most pitchers on their best days. We are just used to always relying on him to perform. He’s the bomb and he’ll show all of his doubters soon enough.
