Giants fans vs. Dodger fans.

During the series against the Dodgers last week, I noticed how different Dodger Stadium is this year At around this time last year, the Dodgers organization was nearly bankrupt, they were nearly in last place, and they were having a hard time getting fans there.

This year, however, is a completely different story.
 "Magic" Johnson bought the Dodgers, therefore giving the organization more money to spend on "big" players. And that is exactly what they have done. They got Hanley Ramirez, Josh Beckett, Adrian Gonzalez, Nick Punto, and Carl Crawford.
Now the Dodgers are in 2nd place. Two games behind the Giants.
Now fans flock to see their games, because they have a shot at the Playoffs.

But Giants fans have stuck to their team.
Even in the years when the Giants did poorly, thousands of fans flocked to the games every day. After the World Series, thousands of fans still showed up. And even last year, when the Giants lost Buster Posey and had a pretty bad season, it still didn't matter.
Through rain and shine: Giants fans stay with their team.
 It doesn't matter what place they are in.

Maybe it's just me, but I think that the Giants have the best fans in all of Major League Baseball! :)
