Win Survivor and meet Tim Lincecum

A few Saturdays ago, Brandon and I got to meet Tim Lincecum as part of the meet-and-greet your favorite San Francisco Giant.

How did Brandon get this prestige honor? Well, he won Survivor way back at the picnic in April, so think twice before you tell the tribe to vote you off.

One thing I'd like to note about Tim Lincecum is that he seems like a great person. I'd hate to brag or name drop, BUT, when you are around these athletes like I have through work, you start to see these athletes as actual human beings, and you can tell who is genuinely a nice person and who is just pretending in front of the cameras.

Lincecum is one of these good guys. He is always accommodating to the media, answering questions as honest as possible, never making excuses and he gives everyone the same respect he is given.

For probably close to 2 1/2 to 3 hours, he took pictures and signed autographs for the fans who came out to see him, Unless you are (someone) who loves to take pictures all the time, (cough cough), posing for a picture over and over could be very boring. By the time Brandon and I got there, he probably had snapped over 100 pictures and had probably 100 more to go. And I can't even imagine how many times he signed something.

Yet, he shook my hand, had a brief conversation with me, and seemed to enjoy himself.

Tim Lincecum > the entire NBA...BEAT LA...

Lincecum has proven his one of the elite pitchers in baseball only a few years into his career. To already possess 2 Cy Young's is very impressive considering his stature. The matchup of Lincecum vs Lee is incredible.
