SF Giants Reinvigorate a Truly American Tradition

From Mark Silverman of the Immigrant Legal Resource Center:

I have seen Giants play baseball since the team moved to San Francisco when I was 12. So like almost all of us in the Bay Area, I am thrilled that the Giants won the World Series.  Another reason this is important to me is that the victory helps to strengthen one of our uniquely American traditions – baseball,.  This is very welcome in a time in which truly parts of our heritage in the United States like St. Patrick’s Day and pizza are being overshadowed by Cinco de Mayo and chalupas.  So I would like to thank some of the players that have helped strengthen this American tradition by winning the World Series:  Renteria, Lincecum, Uribe, Cain, Jonathan Sanchez, Freddy Sanchez, Molina, Posey, Torres, Huff, Lopez, Mota, Ramirez, Romo, Velez., and Sandoval. Today  I (as well as they) should be proud to be Americans
