Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Neologisms are not encyclopedic. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:07, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Per WP:NEO, "Articles on neologisms are commonly deleted ... we must cite reliable secondary sources such as books and papers about the term or concept, not books and papers that use the term." Information in this article is more relevant and notable to existing articles about the individuals Mike Krukow and Duane Kuiper, List of San Francisco Giants broadcasters, 2010 San Francisco Giants season, and the San Francisco Giants. It is not notable enough as a stand-alone article unless it passes WP:GNG and coverage is found that is significant and not WP:ROUTINE coverage in multiple, independent sources. —Bagumba (talk) 02:18, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, based primarily on this reference. I don't believe that WP:NEO applies, because this article is not about the neologism itself, but about the two sportscasters, who are notable.  A second choice would be to redirect to San Francisco Giants. Matchups 16:16, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 * They are notable, which is why they have individual articles. This adds nothing, other than the neologism. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge or redirect - The article is unsourced, and I don't know if it is sourceable or not. To the extent the information is sourceable, it should probably just be merged to List of San Francisco Giants broadcasters, and any other relevant information from Matchups' source could be added as well. Then this can be turned into a redirect to the broadcaster list. Rlendog (talk) 19:18, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect to San Francisco Giants. Beyond the obvious WP:NEO argument, there is also nothing in this article that explains why this specific pairing is itself notable beyond its being composed of two already-notable personages, other than having a cutesy name attached to it. The target I chose is preferable to List of San Francisco Giants broadcasters since it already has information on the topic, and is more likely to be kept current. It will eventually have to redirect to the latter, of course. -Dewelar (talk) 19:47, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
