The ‘oh hey guys what’s up not to brag or anything but I have recently been liberated from NY’ beard is one of the best aesthetic non-baseball moves in baseball.
But tbh I think it would maybe rule even more if he does give it a shot but then it turns out he can’t really grow that impressive of a beard or whatever and it kinda looks like shit so he shaves it back off haha
It's only right that after breaking the AL HR record as a member of the same team as the previous record holder, he does the same for the NL HR record holder
...Candlestick Park, where the San Francisco Giants used to play back when Aaron Judge was a child had a long urinal trough where the "pee" would "slosh"
Ipso Facto, it's clearly a sign of some sort.
I’ve been hearing this phrase y’all got over here that I ain’t too crazy about. “It’s the hope that kills you.” Y’all know that? I disagree, you know? I think it’s the lack of hope that comes and gets you. See, I believe in hope. I believe in belief. Now, where I’m from, we got a saying too. A question, actually. “Do you believe in miracles?” - Ted Lasso
I, for one, look forward to Aaron Judge's movements dominating coverage until he signs. Let's get a news cycle of him visiting Baltimore and Toronto lmao
Hell if I were him I’d just travel the entire globe like some baseball pilgrimage visiting any city with a significant baseball presence to throw people off
These made up contracts are always so funny to me. Like they arent inherently funny or anything but they just make me laugh because the years and dollar amount or so wild

They’re not really meant to. You enter into a long contract with the understanding that you’re going to eat some decline years in order to lock up the prime years. It’s just the cost of doing business and the result of the free market.
LOL, this is like KawhiWatch a few years ago in the NBA. If it follows that pattern, Yankees fans will start watching flight paths he might be on. He'll play the Yankees off the Giants, and then surprise everyone and go to the A's, randomly pulling in another superstar with him...
Raptors/Clippers/Lakers fans were analyzing the chip bag selection in the background of photos from a guy who said he just saw Kawhi at a gas station.
People were asking what chip brands were sold where.
Not to mention hotel lobby stalking in Toronto.
As a Clippers fan, that was definitely one of the more amazing weeks of my fandom (right up there with players barricading Deandre Jordan in his house to make him stay with the team). Especially all the egg on the faces of over-confident Lakers fans.
That was the whole emoji saga too correct? I went camping that weekend and trying to piece all that shit together was a fucking trip. And Paul Pierce's jpeg of an emoji still cracks me up
I'm relatively new to living in sf, wheres your favorite place in mission to get a burrito? I really like El Farolito but for all I know thats just the tip of the iceberg so I'm more than open to recs
i love Faralito and their salsa but their chips suck. Pancho Villa is good and i like their chips as well as La Taqueria which won the burrito bracket and their nuclear serrano salsa.
I seriously dislike La Taqueria. It feels like they nickel and dime you for stuff that should just be standard, and the burritos aren't that good imo.
Guadalajara has the best salsa bar in town.
Not the Mission, but a short- ish ride on the 44 from the Mission to Silver and San Bruno Ave, Cinco de Mayo taqueria. Burritos are great, their quesadillas are fire just like their tortas. And their nachos? Delicious
Honestly I prefer Cancun or El Metate, al pastor is my meat of choice and they both do it really well. Pancho Villa is probably where I go to most frequently, though, just because they're so reliable and affordable, and the baby burrito is the perfect size for me when I want to eat a burrito but not fall asleep at 2 PM. Don't sleep on Oakland, either - a lot of the best burritos are across the Bay, like Tacos Sinaloa.
It stopped in 2013 after 1000 reviews, but [Burrito Eater](https://burritoeater.com/main.php) is still the elite guide.
What’s a California burrito consist of? We don’t have good Mexican food in Boston.
I mean there’s a couple of places in Southie but I don’t really fuck with that neighborhood.
Edit: thanks for the answers. Sounds pretty damn good.
A California burrito is basically some random dude decided to put French fries in his burrito and all of Southern California thought it was the greatest thing ever. We don’t do that in Northern California…because we…you know…respect Mexican cuisine.
Lmfao this is rich.. I went to college the Bay Area all your Mexican food is trash. Think you’re in the minority if you think the Bay Area does Mexican food better than Southern California.
lol you can get them at a local taqueria to me so we definitely do do that in Northern California. I tried it once, it was good! definitely a sometimes food though, I'm not trying to have a heart attack.
varies from place to place. the core of it is carne asada, cheese, and french fries. then depending on where you go there’s guac, salsa/pico de gallo, crema, etc
My uncle was a Mets/Lenny Dykstra fan and was so pissed wen he got traded to the Phillies that he switched allegiance to them. I always was confused by that. Like team over player is what we've grown up with but now I finally understand it. I'd hate to say it but since Hal took over my Fandom isn't as strong as it used to be and I could see myself jumping ship for Judge since he's been the only fun thing to root for these past 5 years...idk .. go yanks?
Cool Story. Giants have not gotten a premier free agent since ‘92 lol. I love the Giants but they never get the big name, they get the mid tier free agents. I’ll believe it when I see him put on the jersey.
Let’s see not have to deal with Crazy New York fans and their media, never below freezing, and the ocean. If the contracts are the same 0% chance I choose New York if I were judge.
> never below freezing, and the ocean
Baseball is a spring and summer sport. Judge can avoid the worst NY weather by simply living somewhere warm in the offseason.
And NYC is pretty close to the ocean.
Interesting question: if the Giants gave Judge the same contract offer the Yankees did, which offer would he take? Would he go to play for his childhood favorites or would he stick with the only team he’s ever played for?
He’s definitely the face of the Yankees now if that’s what you’re asking. If he re-signs he’s almost certain to be made the first official team captain since Jeter
If you’re a tall dude who vaguely looks like Aaron Judge, now’s the time to walk around Major League cities to cause rumors
insert Larry Fitzgerald at Logan Airport meme here
One of these days he'll come through for us. It's only a matter of time.
I’m not either of those things, but I’ll try my best
Just do what Judge does. Sit on someones shoulders in a trench coat.
Just visiting some family (Farhan Zaidi) and friends (Gabe Kapler)
I feel like Gabe Kapler and Judge would have a pretty sweet bromance.
"Bro, you wanna go out for some protein shakes and tanning?" "Always, bro."
Bro job time
Choo choo
GTL bro!! ^(it’s been long enough to where I hope people get this reference)
Gotta tan the boys
👀
Lol,.should have realized I was shining the Thicc signal up into the night sky with this comment.
“I hear there’s some sweet swans up in Canada to check out”
This is gross, I don't like being on a break
Don't do that. Don't give me hope.
Yeah but what if he does it though I still kinda doubt it actually like actually happening, but I would love to see it
There’s such a good marketing opportunity with Judge playing for the “Giants”.
“Boss the marketing team agrees with your assessment that signing judge presents a good marketing opportunity. But now they are asking if we should maybe also be including something about how he’s an international superstar and he’s really good at baseball and so on in the promo content/media — or if it’s literally just about how we have signed an above average height guy.

Get me Boban Marjanovic!
Stahp
Oh hey my bad dude
The question is if he leaves NY could he grow a beard? Should he stay in New York so no one knows if he can't?
Fuck yeah Aaron “Kratos” Judge would rule
The ‘oh hey guys what’s up not to brag or anything but I have recently been liberated from NY’ beard is one of the best aesthetic non-baseball moves in baseball. But tbh I think it would maybe rule even more if he does give it a shot but then it turns out he can’t really grow that impressive of a beard or whatever and it kinda looks like shit so he shaves it back off haha

It was awful the day it opened. The '89 earthquake messed it up, and it was pretty bad by the mid '90s
Much like O.Co, Candlestick was a dump. But it was *our* dump, you know?

He’s almost guaranteed a Dodger now
That’s 100% what we deserve for being interested in Bellinger
I'm not interested in Bellinger
Neither am I.
I am, for the stoned memes
The bay has better weed... It might be the change he needs
Timmy joins the team as a cannabis consultant, Bellinger gets MVP votes. Get it done Zaidi
He's just using us to lube up a good payday from the Yanks...
I, for one, look forward to Aaron Judge's movements dominating coverage until he signs. Let's get a news cycle of him visiting Baltimore and Toronto lmao
"I'm just checking out Fort McHenry, guys, seriously." "OMG JUDGE TO THE ORIOLES"
He's actually giving up baseball to become a stevedore
Later turns out he's a huge War of 1812 buff as he's spotted on a tour of Fort York in Toronto
"Judge caught storming the battlements at Fort George in Niagara with nothing but a baseball bat and a giant 'GO YANKS' foam finger"
Launch the news choppers!
CP24 already in the air as we speak!
Aaron Judge lands at Denver airport... "I'm just going skiing! ^^With ^^Kris ^^Bryant."
are we all gonna act like that wouldn’t be fun as hell? sure, it makes no sense for the Rockies, but it’ll be fun
Lets see him hit 80 lol
DINGERS!
>makes no sense for the Rockies It's guaranteed now
Nvm. Kris got hurt
Imagine if he’s always wanted to visit Japan and this is the offseason he decides to go
Judge visits South Florida for Christmas vacation: Judge to the Marlins confirmed?!
Hell if I were him I’d just travel the entire globe like some baseball pilgrimage visiting any city with a significant baseball presence to throw people off
I'm okay if he goes to Baltimore
You are?
Brb taking down the left field wall
Remember when you and your girlfriend were on a break, but you knew she was at another guy’s house? Yeah
She just fell asleep. That's why she's not texting back.
Her phone died She was at a movie She accidentally left her phone in the car It’s rude to text when you’re with your friends
I always got “Really Busy with work” 🫠
damn i guess she wasnt twchincally lying
Yikes. Imagine the things *he* might say...
“Sorry I fell asleep.” *sent at 2 a.m.*
No text message for 3 days, she replies, sorry was busy with work. And you believed it 😢… I’m definitely not projecting… 🫠
The Giants are just a friend! (With abs and a cool Instagram page)
Oh baby you
YOU GOT WHAT I NEEEED
but you say he’s just a friend
Don’t worry. He will send pics.
Fuck reading that hit hard
Breaking news: Aaron Judge signs a 11 year 650 million contract with the San Francisco Giants
No way would we do that AAV. 20 year, $650M. Cart him out in a sarcophagus for the second half of it.
do you expect Judge to be dead by the age of 40
It’s a smart move honestly. SF is banking on climate change taking us all by 2030
Idky but this comment combo made me wake up the baby laughing
It's actually a Goa'uld sarcophagus
Player coach for the last 10 years. Only pitches in blowouts.
Bobby Bonilla that shit.
These made up contracts are always so funny to me. Like they arent inherently funny or anything but they just make me laugh because the years and dollar amount or so wild

$1 billon dollars!
Remember when Harper came to SF and we were the frontrunners? Yeah I'm still hurt
Well the fences have been moved in since then so maybe it will be different this time.
Pete Putila came over from the Astros and is the new GM. This would be like Dr. Evil raising his pinky next to his mouth.
And Ohtani, and....
Inches. Been there.
He winked. It's over.
i am all for it! no bias!
I'm not for it! No bias as well!
I literally do not care at all! No bias for me either!
Goddamit dodgers better send him a tumbler cup too. Maybe that'll work.
I mean…I sort of am. That contract is gonna be insane and age horribly. I’m fine if he goes to SF.
We always say the same shit about you guys but in the end it never matters because the teams are rich and can just deal with it later.
have any of those contracts aged well?
They’re not really meant to. You enter into a long contract with the understanding that you’re going to eat some decline years in order to lock up the prime years. It’s just the cost of doing business and the result of the free market.
For once we are in agreement. Sounds like an awful idea.
Kapler and Judge are cousins didn't you know?
he’s coming to my house
Well get the charcuterie ready then!
LOL, this is like KawhiWatch a few years ago in the NBA. If it follows that pattern, Yankees fans will start watching flight paths he might be on. He'll play the Yankees off the Giants, and then surprise everyone and go to the A's, randomly pulling in another superstar with him...
Him going to the A’s would honestly be beyond hilarious
The A’s would put it in Judge’s contract that he has to buy the A’s a stadium.
What do we know about Judge’s uncle?
Raptors/Clippers/Lakers fans were analyzing the chip bag selection in the background of photos from a guy who said he just saw Kawhi at a gas station. People were asking what chip brands were sold where. Not to mention hotel lobby stalking in Toronto.
As a Clippers fan, that was definitely one of the more amazing weeks of my fandom (right up there with players barricading Deandre Jordan in his house to make him stay with the team). Especially all the egg on the faces of over-confident Lakers fans.
That was the whole emoji saga too correct? I went camping that weekend and trying to piece all that shit together was a fucking trip. And Paul Pierce's jpeg of an emoji still cracks me up
That was the greatest thing to have happened in Clippers history.
Phillies fans followed John Middleton’s plane the entire offseason of Bryce Harper signing lol
Aaron Judge was spotted with Larry Fitzgerald at Logan?
I mean his family is from there and he’s probably back home for Thanksgiving
Might as well kill two birds with one stone, he was always going to visit them anyway.
Please get out of here with your rationality while most of us Yankee fans have heart attacks and WFAN hosts lose their minds
Just remind yourself of the Corbin and Machado visits to Yankee stadium.
I’m pretty sure Judge kills two birds in one sitting every thanksgiving.
Yeah and he got his eye squirted with a grapefruit which makes him wink uncontrollably
The twist: This time it was the Assistant to the Traveling Secretary George Costanza who was eating the grapefruit.
There are 2 airports closer to where his family lives than San Francisco
He is unemployed. I've flown out of a less convenient airport because of the price before.
He winked! Confirmed already signed the team friendly contract after being promised bi-monthly lunch dates with Bonds and Rich Aurilia
He clearly just found a cheaper flight to SFO, and is about to hop on BART over to the Coliseum to meet with Billy and co.
quick, take him into the Mission for a Mission burrito
I'm relatively new to living in sf, wheres your favorite place in mission to get a burrito? I really like El Farolito but for all I know thats just the tip of the iceberg so I'm more than open to recs
i love Faralito and their salsa but their chips suck. Pancho Villa is good and i like their chips as well as La Taqueria which won the burrito bracket and their nuclear serrano salsa.
Cancun is good but can be hit or miss. I’m a fan of Guadalajara too. I’ve never been a fan of La Taqueria, but people like it for whatever reason.
Guad is fucking ELITE
I seriously dislike La Taqueria. It feels like they nickel and dime you for stuff that should just be standard, and the burritos aren't that good imo. Guadalajara has the best salsa bar in town.
Tbf I don’t I’ve met anyone actually from the bay that likes la taqueria. It’s mainly transplants that I’ve known to like it
Idk the La Taqueria in Redwood City was always pretty good to me.
I love Papalote and La taq is always good
Check out El Metate too :)
Go across the bridge to Oakland to tacos Sinaloa. If you get it super it’ll be the length of your whole arm
Not the Mission, but a short- ish ride on the 44 from the Mission to Silver and San Bruno Ave, Cinco de Mayo taqueria. Burritos are great, their quesadillas are fire just like their tortas. And their nachos? Delicious

Cali burritos are readily available all over the Bay Area. I lived in Oakland for the last ten years they’re very common.
Lmfao this is rich.. I went to college the Bay Area all your Mexican food is trash. Think you’re in the minority if you think the Bay Area does Mexican food better than Southern California.
Yeah you guys just put rice in burritos and make it worse. Respect deez nuts
lol you can get them at a local taqueria to me so we definitely do do that in Northern California. I tried it once, it was good! definitely a sometimes food though, I'm not trying to have a heart attack.
>We don’t have good Mexican food in Boston Wil Myers would beg to differ
varies from place to place. the core of it is carne asada, cheese, and french fries. then depending on where you go there’s guac, salsa/pico de gallo, crema, etc
It’s a burrito with french fries inside it.
Plot twist. He's on the west coast to meet with John Fisher about buying the A's.
First active player-owner in league history
I refuse to believe. Even if he were to sign with the team I'd refuse to believe. I'll be calling Opening Day a hoax.
Yankees fans about to organize a protest outside Oracle
Throw them a curveball Judge. Visit the Oakland A’s instead
Judge on the Giants would be dope to see ngl. That stadium and those fans will love him.
as a pads fan I’d at least like any NL West pitcher to be eligible for a cy young. because if he’s in our division we are close to fucked lol
I guess Verlander to the NL West?
The Giants do need another starter with Rodon leaving...
The person I responded to did say “any NL West team” and not “any NL West team besides the Giants.”
Couldn’t make it any less obvious Aaron
This is the hottest video on the internet
He's visiting the As suckers.
Why do the Giants not simply sign all the giant players?
I’m here to overreact
Breaking news has lost all meaning
I'm ready for it to get spicy up in this bitch
If Judge goes to SF, then I wouldn't be surprised if the MVPs from 2023 to 2030 are NL Judge AL Ohtahni.
I stayed at that hotel for a Dodgers Giants series. Yankees are fucked.
What hotel is that?
That’s the St. Regis I believe.
Don't remember the name but it's next to the MLK memorial
ty
Breaking news should only be reserved for actual contract agreements
NOOOO GOD NO GOD PLEASE NO
I’d love to see Judge in the NL for no reason at all. No siree, no ulterior motives here. SIGN HIM, GIANTS.
I wonder how the Yankee fans are doing
My uncle was a Mets/Lenny Dykstra fan and was so pissed wen he got traded to the Phillies that he switched allegiance to them. I always was confused by that. Like team over player is what we've grown up with but now I finally understand it. I'd hate to say it but since Hal took over my Fandom isn't as strong as it used to be and I could see myself jumping ship for Judge since he's been the only fun thing to root for these past 5 years...idk .. go yanks?
Cool Story. Giants have not gotten a premier free agent since ‘92 lol. I love the Giants but they never get the big name, they get the mid tier free agents. I’ll believe it when I see him put on the jersey.
[удалено]
Can’t wait to see Judge with a beard.
*People think that home runs that land in the water are regular home runs, but in reality they are worth double points*
Giants fans are going to be so sad when they end up with IKF ^Let ^me ^cope ^ok?
That wink, that fucking wink. I cannot stand another broken heart
I don't care where he goes. Just get him out of our division.
Let’s see not have to deal with Crazy New York fans and their media, never below freezing, and the ocean. If the contracts are the same 0% chance I choose New York if I were judge.

Or coconut oil
Interesting question: if the Giants gave Judge the same contract offer the Yankees did, which offer would he take? Would he go to play for his childhood favorites or would he stick with the only team he’s ever played for?
He’d automatically become the face of the franchise. Dunno if that’s a lateral move or not.
He’s definitely the face of the Yankees now if that’s what you’re asking. If he re-signs he’s almost certain to be made the first official team captain since Jeter
