He could've helped translate some of the Spanish in Pablo's speech for instance, but did nothing of substance. His career at KTVU is one of the stranger local phenomenons.

He always seems grossly uncomfortable on camera.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-67186640118598036232014-11-02T13:23:02.927-08:002014-11-02T13:23:02.927-08:00Same float as K&KSame float as K&KAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-13170319116425401012014-11-02T12:51:24.250-08:002014-11-02T12:51:24.250-08:002:01, she's not attractive enough for any brot...2:01, she's not attractive enough for any brothel work.

Often, the nature of a parade is to display a level of enthusiasm that's beyond commensurate for the occasion. Exemptions (really big deals) in my opinion would include the end of a legitimate war, veterans day, man landing on the moon, and obama's last day in office. That said, everyday is a parade for Roberta.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-38543289562273034242014-11-01T18:07:59.146-07:002014-11-01T18:07:59.146-07:00Why do people take so many shots on this blog at A...Why do people take so many shots on this blog at Amy G? She tries to do a good job and has gotten a lot better over the years. The players seem to like her and I don't think she would be on with the most popular TV play by play duo (Kruk and Kuip) if she weren't any good. She has a dazzling smile and a wonderful personality and Amy G. also happens to love our Giants! Give the young lady a break and give her some love!

For the most part, their comments are relevant, and they don't overpower the event. It was very comfortable to watch. As for Roberta Gonzalez - even tho I did not see any of her coverage of the Giants parade - I see her posts on FB - and she is really just soooo full of herself. She does indeed just need to go away.

I dropped listening to Radnich on the radio a few years back over the Damon Bruce thing, which I thought was childish, and haven't gone back since nor felt the need to keep bashing him. But damn, he was annoying as hell. Dude sucks the air out of the room and needed to be the center of it. Darya was "dropping knowledge" about the players that Gary didn't know which just highlighted how out of touch he is getting with sports. By then, KTVU was a welcome break.<br /><br />I didn't even recognize Gasia at first. I'm so use to her "buttoned-up" sitting on a couple phone books look at the news studio. To see her in a more casual look was nice but I'm not sure her or Sal really added anything.<br /><br />I saw Marty Lurie on Comcast before the parade. Was he there covering their footage?<br /><br />Regarding the speeches, Hunter Pence really CAN motivate a crowd. And who knew Buster had a sense of humor?<br /><br />The politicians did soak up some time but that is what they do. It was interesting to see George Schultz there and unexpected. He use to work for Bechtel there in the city before working for Reagan. Did I just miss it or did Renel miss Gavin's name when rattling off ex-mayors?<br /><br />Bonds I didn't mind. He really can't go anywhere else for any love by the fans. Maybe he'll be nicer to people in his later years. If not, just bring his sofa chair to the celebrations and team photos.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-50558426592050480812014-11-01T14:01:38.711-07:002014-11-01T14:01:38.711-07:00I avoided the entire parade coverage simply becaus...I avoided the entire parade coverage simply because I knew it would be as you described and I would be annoyed versus uplifted.

When are these people going to realize that NO ONE wants to see or hear them? They are there for the players. BTW, make Charlotte Schultz ride off into<br />the sunset. What the hell is the "Chief of Protocol?" Is that a paid position? Finally, who is responsible for bringing Barry Bonds back into the fold? He is a liar and a cheater. When Amy G interviewed him, BB spoke about the Giants' family. What a joke! When he was playing, that "family" was dysfunctional!!
