The San Francisco Giants have been called and adopted the idea of being a team of misfits. Never conforming to traditional baseball standards for a baseball team, they united under a common front of crazy. Whether you're rooting for or playing for, it's always fun to be the underdog and Giants embraced it. When you grow up you are always told that you should always be yourself no matter what anyone says. Embrace your inner nutcase. As I watched Animal House this past weekend, I couldn't help but think how similar their story was to the Giants. The Delta Tau Chi members were a group of misfits amongst their fraternity peers but had confidence in themselves and their own abilities as a cohesive unit to succeed. Not to be cliche but there is no "I" in Team but there is an ATM (just ask the Giants), an AMT (just ask the Giants' tax advisors), and mate (just ask Otter).
Since there are a host of crazy characters and personalities, I've taken on the burden of creating a Giants fraternity similar to Delta House. "See if you can guess what I am now . . . . "
