Brewerfan.net mentioned on ESPN News!

[litesrn]

On ESPN news as part of their story about the Crew's start, they specifically mentioned brewerfan.net and the thread about trading for Santana!

Notoriety abounds!!!! Congrats, guys!!! Folks are paying attention to what is said here!

[Brian the Automator]

Are you kidding me?... Wow... Does anyone have a video clip?

[KCBrewerfan34]

It will be replayed and replayed on ESPN News, just have to catch the Brew highlighhts.

[1992casey]

Flip that channel on. ESPN News tends to repeat a lot.

[AJAY]

OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Brian, it's just a matter of time before you end up joining Dan Patrick on national radio. Your celebrity status is growing awfully fast.

[Brian the Automator]

I'm DVRing ESPNNews for the forseeable future. If someone's watching and can not the specific time it re-airs, that would be awesome.

 

Thanks for the heads up, fellas! And thanks to the Brewerfan.net nation!

[hawing]

Let's note:

2117 members now...

and see if there's a spike in the next few days.

 

How awesome for the site.

[dadofandrew]

If Ramblings is ever mentioned, I'm sure it will be followed by the phrase,

 

"And it sucks".

 

Congrats Brian, if the Crew wins something in the next few years, they may say things like...

 

"Sons of Sam Horn, you know, it's a fan site...like Brewerfan.net."

[Brewer Fever]

ESPNEWS pretty much runs stories in the same order over and over until something earth-shattering happens in sports to alter the loop.

 

From the looks of the two threads opened, it looks like it happened in the first 5-6 minutes of their show cycle. Look for something by around 9:35 possibly...maybe a minute or two later if a game or two ends or there's a big play somewhere.

[Sheets4theHOF]

If someone can they should dvr it, send it to their computer and youtube (or some other uploading site) it.

They mentioned the thread about trading for Johan Santana? In the Brewerfan Trade Forum?

 

In what context? Because that thread is more or less a random conversation, sort of jokey thread. Funny stuff in that thread by the way - I enjoyed it.

[Brewer Fever]

There it was again...9:36 on the dot.

[DHonks]

Just saw it. Where was the mention? They said in a chat-room? I'll have to head over to the trade rumors forum to see if it was mentioned there

[Brewer Fever]

They said fans are so excited that it prompted one fan on Brewerfan.net to ponder..."what would it take to get Johan Santana".

 

It was pretty impossible to miss.

[splitterpfj]

I don't get ESPN News anymore, but I sure wish I did right now.

 

Congrats Brian, and staff!

[Brewer Fever]

If there are still those with ESPNEWS who missed it...look for it at 10:05. I also just DVR'd the 9:35 mention.

[Brewer Fever]

Here's a transcript from the 9:35 mention...

 

"What in the name of Cecil Cooper is going on with the Brewers? They're 4-0...lighting up the league, and their fanbase. Some fans a little more excited than others. On Brewerfan.net, the following question was posted in their chatroom...What would it take to get Johan Sanatan? C'mon it's April. Brewers however trying to go 5-0 for the first time since 1987."

 

And then they began the higlight package for today's win over Arizona.

[burniebrewer]

Everybody ready to catch the next spin at the top of the hour?

 

It's just too bad they had to focus on a hypothetical trade thread.

[brewerjamie15]

I can honestly say that this is good Publicity for the site. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Congrats BF.Net!

[burniebrewer]

I can honestly say I was convinced that Jamie had something to do with it. I can see Jamie holding Gammons hostage in a linen closet on the horn with ESPN saying "mention us or Pete gets the squirrel treatment".http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[DSFastball55]

I second the idea to put it online somewhere. I don't have ESPNews. Thanks and congrats!!

[Brewer Fever]

If someone can tell me how to get it from my DVR to my computer, I'd be willing to give it a shot.

[burniebrewer]

The re-loop begins. Pay attention everyone.

[Brian the Automator]

Just saw it.... That was pretty sweet, to say the least.

 

I do have it DVR'd. I'll see what I can do about getting it uploaded to yourtube or google videos... If someone else can do it easier than I can, by all means, that would be great.

[Southwest Brewer]

I don't have cable so it would be great if someone could get it on the net. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
