San Francisco Fan
Gave her life to save her man,
A man who wasn't worth a shovelful of earth
From the grave of San Francisco Fan.
Cab Calloway, circa 1945.
Although I'm a lifelong Chicago White Sox fan, I managed to catch the Chicago Cubs-San Francisco Giants baseball game Wednesday night. The Giants' prima donna slugger, Barry Bonds, needs just one homer run to tie the career homer total of the great Babe Ruth.
So I thought I'd catch a possible slice of history. But Bonds didn't event get a hit. And after his last at bat, with the Giants trailing, the TV cameras panned the stadium, showing a mass exodus of the "fans" to the exit. Couldn't they wait for the game to end?
"Not worth a shovelful of earth."
