Go Brewers!!!

Let's get greedy, who wants .500 when you could be better than that!

[cirillo26]

I hope they win tonight, unfortunately I won't be able to watch or listen tonight.

 

I'll be partying at Ozzfest http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/devil.gif

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I will be watching tonite. And when any mods get on can we sticky this?

[cirillo26]

Cappy will be looking to be the first Brewer pitcher to get to 13 wins since 1997 when Cal Eldred won 13 for the then AL Brewers.

 

So good luck Cappy!

 

Go Crew!!!

Did I hear them say last night that there is no TV today?

 

Here's what is listed as far as TV goes:

 

Game Info: 7:05 pm EDT Sat Aug 6, 2005

TV: WPSG

 

 

No FSN listed.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

[princeginterhallhelms04]

Burnie it does look like there is no TV today unless you have the major league baseball extra innings package. So listen to bob and jim whilie enjoying a cold beverage outside!

[burniebrewer]

I do have Extra Innings, but it seems that these games always fall into blackout restrictions. I'm almost positive I will not be able to see the game.

 

Not a bad call on the patio/beverage idea though.

[Braktalk]

Bummer, but at least FSN is carrying the Sunday game. Nothing like a Sunday day game. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smokin.gif

[princeginterhallhelms04]

I agree, at least sunday i will have the brewers to watch. Tonite i can always find something to do. But was kind of looking forward to watching the crew tonite. At least we have a great radio team to listen too..

[dpapo]

I checked the Extra Innings schedule online and didn't see the game listed there as well. If anyone is at home and has the extra innings package, they can double check to see if it has been added or not.

[Getpaddled]

Maybe this needs to be taken outside of the game thread into it's own topic, but what happened to the idea of a Brewers network that Mark A was talking about starting? It'd really be nice to see 150+ games televised per season.

[mikevan1818]

Brewers have the longest winning streak in baseball right now....it's only three...but Yahoo for the brewers!

Did I read that correcty, you lucky... Man, I wish my friend bought a bar, then... well I'm sure everyone knows what would happen next, but I doubt I'd remember.

 

At some point in time, I think we here at BF.net who are of age should all get together and have a nice, relaxed... huge drinking fest.

[scoop53714]

Does it rattle any of the "realists" on this board that at the end of the day Milwaukee COULD be 3.5 out of the WC spot? Still a longshot but, stranger things have happened. There have been tons of people here saying that anyone who can look at this team and think they have a shot at the postseason is lost. I disagreed from day one of spring training, which I happened to attend. There are no glaring weak spots on this team and there are not a lot of other teams in the NL who are far and away superior to this team. I have liked the make up of this roster from early on and its fun to seem them get in the mix like lots of us thought they could.

Is that bar in Rapids?

 

No FSN coverage tonight... they are showing high school softball instead.

[brewers19]

The only thing that I see standing in the way of the Brewers and the post-season right now is their lack of consistency. When they get that rolling, then I'll give them my post-season blessings.

[burniebrewer]

The game is not listed at all in DirecTV's listings. Must be Philly local only tonight.

[AJAY]

No TV tonight.

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!

[PeaveyFury]

The FSN schedule makes very little sense from the get go. I'm sure that they have a good reason for no airing the game tonight, like showing Mike Ditka Beyond the Glory for the 9th time in the past week.

 

Ugh.

[endaround]

As to a Brewer cable network, after the beating the Twins took at the hands of FSN I don't know if it could happen.

[JoeH33]

Hey its not that big a deal that the game isnt on tv tonight, following the games online is actually kind of addicting.One big atvantage of using Gameday is that you're able to see all the stats etc.. while your following the game. Since I dont have cable at my apartment yet, I've followed about 75% of the games on Gameday, and now if I do watch the games on tv it actually seems kind of weird. .

[areacodes]

I've never understood FSN's coverage of the Brewers. In general they refuse to broadcast day games (tomorrow is an exception) and I can't understand why. They have aired Brewers day games only 14 times out of 37 day games (where it is usual for a day game, i.e. get-a-way days) and all 14 were Sunday games. It bugs me, as I would love to be able to watch every game on TV. I can understand if the team was at home and fans are able to attend, but they should broadcast every game when they are on the road. We have no other way to watch. I guess when I get back from NY, I'll just have to listen to Jim and Bob (which I prefer to Bill and Darron, don't know who doesn't) anyways.

[gbpacker40]

Yeah, I didnt realize the game wasnt on tonight until I wok eup and read this thread. There goes my idea of drinking mass amounts of beer, sitting back and watching the game. Now it has changed my plans completely so its more like drink mass amounts of beer, sit back and follow here. I hate change. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
