As the dying medium with which news is delivered continues its decline into irrelevance, the last part of a newspaper to go gently into the good night will be the iconic status which we give to a front page after something on a large stage occurs.
Here are the front pages from newspapers across California.
The San Francisco Examiner, published in San Francisco, California USA:
The Santa Cruz Sentinel, published in Santa Cruz, California USA:
The Press Democrat, published in Santa Rosa, California USA:
The San Jose Mercury News, published in San Jose, California USA:
The Record, published in Stockton, California USA:
The Modesto Bee, published in Modesto, California USA:
Thanks for these Parkes. Despite their increasing irrelevance, there’s nothing quite like the front page.
Also how did the hospital go?
Not bad. I got some pain killers. I might have a knee sprain, but nothing too serious. Really, really stiff though, and getting around takes forever.
You’re lucky. I got hit by a car a week ago. 4 broken ribs and a broken shoulder blade. I also have some paint killers and it takes me forever to get around. and put on a shirt.
Fuck the giants…
Sandoval looks hilarious in the first page (SF Chronicle). Skipping with excitement.
Nothing from Michigan?
I figured they’ve been through enough.
Did you see the guy during the bottom of the 10th with the John 3 16 sign? I was just soo confused that a tigers fan was waving that sign around when they swept in a very noncompetitive series . But he did turn me into a Giants fan just in time to watch them win the world series.
+1 to Will. I saw the exact same thing. I don’t get it.
He got a TALKING TO from someone with Tigers security.
I actually noticed the TALKING TO as well – but then right after that the security guy had turned back around and the sign was still there.
