If you know me, you know that I love the Giants.  They are kind of a big deal around our household.  Every time we watch a Giants game I drive my husband crazy with my look-a-likes.  Probably because he has no idea who I’m even talking about.  And, I may be crazy.  But, crazy or not, here are some of my favorites.

This was the most <appropriate> picture I could find for Pat.  If you google him, you might notice that the majority of his photos involve him without his shirt on, making an angry face over a call or flipping the camera off.  Now, Dermot on the other hand you might recognize from one of my favorite movies The Wedding Date or perhaps a more classic movie, My Best Friends Wedding.  Just go with it.

This happens to be one of the look-a-likes that my husband thinks I am most crazy about.  This may be because I usually present it by saying something like, “Buster looks exactly like Napoleon Dynamite!” I should really work on my delivery on this one because I still think he does.

Don’t judge me, but at one time in my life I used to watch the cartoon “King of the Hill.” I have since moved on to better things, promise.  No disrespect to Cain with this one. I really think it’s the nose and the hair color.  Ok, and maybe the chin too.

This next one may a bit too soon.  I’m still little upset over the decision to move Travis Ishikawa down to the Giants triple-a team, the Fresno Grizzlies.  Boo.

 He reminds me a lot of Keanu Reeves.  But, he also reminds me of a brown eyed Justin-Bobby.  You know, Audrina’s less than honorable ex-boyfriend on The Hills.  See, I told you,  I have moved on the better things.  KIDDING. Kind of.  Anyway, you be the judge on this one.

I don’t think I need to say much for this next one.  Except, can I get a “Have mercy” up in here?

I saved the best for last.  This one is my FAVORITE.

Meet Luiz, the Brazilian cab driver in SF that looks EXACTLY like Timmy.  It’s actually quite creepy.  What’s even creepier are his youtube videos to Timmy. Recently, my husband, brother in law and I spent way too much time trying to figure out if that was really a look-a-like in the videos, or the man himself playing a strange joke.

Conclusion: Luiz is the real <look-a-like> deal. Besides, Timmy doesn’t have time to make videos like that. We on the other hand, clearly have too much time on our hands.

Speaking of extra time, you know those Giants commercials they have been running this season?  They are quite genius.  However, has anyone noticed that a good majority of the players featured in these commercials also happen to be players who have been on, or ended up on the disabled list this season? Weird.  And also, kind of creepy.

I know, I analyze things way too much.  I’m a social worker, it’s what I do. But, just think about it.  I might just have a reasonable theory here people.

And while you are thinking about it, who are some of your Giants look-a-likes?
