How superior of you.

A guy with 76 total posts on this site really has no business telling anyone how to post.

Since you seem new, the IGT thread is typically based on immediate reaction to what's going on during the game.  It's a hot-take fest, and that is really what's expected in this thread.

Some can't seem to handle that, and that's ok, those people just stay away.

In general, I think most of us here are pretty level headed outside of the IGT thread.  

And guess what?  It's ok to question the manager, the GM and anyone else, that's part of being a fan.

That you brought up the posts number I am not a stranger and have way more than 300 posts.  I go all the way back to the original Brewerfan.net.  For whatever reason my original account got wiped when the board was taken over by the new ownership.   I wonder what my total posts were on the old account.  And man when I was on this board in the 2000's we had some really hot threads because the Brewers were a HOT MESS.

Two more awful ABs with Vaughn at 3rd

 

I don't usually ***** in the moment about the offense during the game, but that was an exception. F-bombs were dropped. A big league hitter should be able to hit a fly ball fairly consistently. Yes, it depends on pitch location and type, but still... c'mon.

I agree 100%,  Does everyone know that the Brewers Record Today 50-31,  even after the loss yesterday is the most wins at the 1/2 way point in Brewers history. 

I repeat, Brewers have the most wins at the 1/2 way point in Brewers history.  Chew on that for a moment all continual pessimists. 

A Brewers franchise record for wins at the 1/2 way point. 

 

But when will Arnold be held accountable?

Love it. This site needs more rational fans posting in the game threads. It’s normally negative comments. One of the best teams in baseball has posters asking for our GM to take accountability. Gotta love it.

If we are comparing this website to the college experience the main boards are the gen eds, the minor league forum/draft forum, etc are your specialty courses with senior professors and upper classmen, and the IGT is the frat party. Sometimes a good time but the tempo and temperature of the whole party is usually determined by the loudest and most obnoxious of the attendees.

Casuals will reveal themselves pretty often - my advice is just block/ignore them when they show and it will clean up the entire board experience for you. The IGT is still useful because most people have eyes on the game so if you can only listen or follow along online and want to know specifics of a play you can get an answer pretty quickly from someone ...

But yes, not a ton of quality conversation happens at the frat parties. Watch out for vomit.

This needs some clutch hitters come trade deadline

It's good to have dreams... LOL. Keeps us distracted from the reality of the situation. When was the last time the Brewers added a meaningful bat at the deadline or just prior? I was still boycotting MLB at the time, so maybe Mous? I don't know when they acquired him.

............Or if we could take away the Ashby walk w/one down in the 7th. Or Kuhnel gets any one of the next three hitters after getting the K in the tenth. Or, or, or, or............

Good times😛.

Well, that's right, but I think it's good they didn't roll over when they were down. That was a good effort in the ninth. Maybe they can take that to the next series.

This reminds me of last year when we were seeing this kind of offense all September and some said that it meant nothing going into October.

There are some fans that have no stomach for reality. They just want it all to be sugary fun, and good times.

I would get one more good pitcher and it wouldn't matter, a reliever a starter a closer.  Murphy would make it work.  I still love Joe Ryan as my money in the bank #1 pick. https://www.mlb.com/player/joe-ryan-657746

Wish it was possible to both love & laugh at the same post. Well done🏆.
