Anthony Geary is now with my mom she loved General Hospital
She never caught up on the show I had to throw out tons of dvds and vhs tapes that she had recorded. I hope that she has finally caught up now that she has the time to do that #RIPAnthonyGeary

If we're not going to change vehicles, there's an easy solution for this problem: Red lights for all vehicles when pedestrians have a Walk signal. They do this in London.
No vehicle should be moving through an intersection when pedestrians are crossing.

You can understand why they fired Bob Melvin, but the Giants need to take a hard look in the mirror. Yes, the season was disappointing, but don't forget they ranked 22nd in ESPN's preseason power rankings. Fangraphs projected them to finish under .500. Outside of SF, they didn't really disappoint.
