    You think you're being responded to the way you are because of your opinions, which isn't true. Posters respond to you because of the nonsense I bolded. Clancy has like a decade of posting about wanting Braun back at 3B. He never said, "I know honest opinions aren't welcomed around here" or, "no one here can actually handle the truth". Your truth is also called your opinion, we all have them. Share it as much as you want. Knock it off with the combative victim complex. As to the offseason, who the hell knows. They might still make a move. Better to wait a few months into the season and see where the team stands and where the division stands before judging the non-moves. Bregman to the Red Sox for 3 years at $120 million seems nuts to me. After the 90s and early 2000s watching this team, night after night, I'll take another bite at the apple. The TRUTH is that the Brewers were garbage for most of my life, and I am damn happy they're competitive year after year and finding creative ways to do it. I've long since understood that signings like Bregman aren't going to happen, and thankfully I'm happy for that. I love Yeli but his deal was the absolute most no-brainer in history, and within two years we were wondering how to dump him. It happens. Why over commit to a question mark.

    lol, "find something wrong with me, doc, season is starting soon." This guy is the worst. Imagine if the Brewers had taken a chance and signed him long term. Oof.

    Off to a roaring start!

    Am I the only thinking the Cubs signing Bregman isn't that big of a deal?! He has to play 50% of his games in Chicago, which can giveth and taketh away. Maybe we can wait to see if this happens before we start crying about what the Brewers do and don't do.

    Why would you follow a team (or anyone, for that matter) that you feel is lying to you. What sense does that make?
  7. yfinn6
    Only the ones who won't be good MLB players for the Brewers and we should deal them for other teams' best players. DUH!

    This thread probably doesn't have as many replies because I, like many I'm sure, don't have anything new or profound to add. For me, Uecker was summer and summer nights, road trips with my Dad, Harry Doyle, etc. A huge chunk of my childhood, in other words. As an adult I still loved hearing the voice, even if his skills had slipped a bit. Uecker'isms from me hearing him on the radio will stay with me for the rest of my life probably, just like other core memories will. Should be an interesting year, or at least start to the year with various tributes.

    I did not expect to see Made in the top 50, let alone the top 25. Let's get 2025 started!

    I wonder if it's possible to do something with an early opt-out after two seasons so he has the chance to rebound a bit in MKE and still be looking at another huge payday in two seasons. You'd think playing half of his games in MKE vs NY would help his offensive numbers. As far as the numbers themselves, no idea what it would take and also, maybe the Brewer brass feels their window isn't quite open yet for a big gamble like Alonso. But I also thought he would be a great fit if they can somehow swing it (no pun intended).

    Fickell will still look to hire a QB coach, presumably. If Grimes is the hire, it appears they're trying to build through the O-Line, which is the right move, IMO. I believe Harbaugh went back to heavy sets and a punishing O-Line after being on the hotseat in Michigan after a few lackluster years. Lucky for Harbaugh, the defense also vastly improved; we'll see if that's the case for UW. I'll be curious who Fickell can get to coach quarterbacks. I'm not sure if there's a "reclamation project" out there that just wants to work to rebuild their coaching credibility or an up and coming type. It's another important hire for Fickell.

    Sounds like the staff wants Lowery to play with his hand in the dirt and he wants to play standing up. Thinking that if he can't make the right reads, at least he can absorb some blocks and he said, "nah".

    Will be curious where he goes with OC, and likely (IMO) DC. Guidugli would make some sense, unless ND gives him a big raise to keep him around but I have no idea how likely that is. Another thing to think about is other head coaches who have been shown the door and need the work to re-establish their reputations. Tom Herman might be an interesting candidate at OC.

    Especially if it's true that Carter Smith is going to UW. Though they'll need depth, too. I would hope that Mettauer doesn't leave, too.
  15. yfinn6
    The Brewers should trade him while his value is high.

    This team desperately needs a true middle linebacker. Quay is out of his element there and probably being misused.

    Potrykus tweeted something last week or the week before, too. Cryptic stuff. I figured Longo was gone at the end of the year so a little surprised by the timing but I assume Fickell was just so pissed at what happened last night it was the last straw. Locke never improved at all in any of his starts, even against bad teams when he padded stats he would have some mind-bogglingly stupid turnover(s). I was extremely discouraged about 2025 and while I still am a bit, it's a little less now with Longo gone.
  18. yfinn6
    And Longo is out at UW.

    I don't think it would be wise for Mac to weigh-in on who Fickell hires/fires. Mac has enough goodwill issues within the athletic department he should be worried about.

    I personally thought it was a brilliant move.

    MLF trying to get way too cute today or something. Pretty rotten performance from anyone not named Jacobs or Watson.
  22. yfinn6
    There's going to be some real play action opportunities here for UW. Offensive line has looked much better.
  23. yfinn6
    Longo is bound and determined to beat Oregon by throwing the ball.

    Similar to me. I was on a Wiki rabbit hole and was reading on the 1999 - 2000 team that won the Rose Bowl and how many "homegrown" kids they had. I know college football is changing and players rarely stay 3-5 years and develop but man it was fun to have a senior-laden team with experience and strength and watch them beat the crap out of teams. Scott Tolzien would not be talked about in the upper echelon of UW QBs (though maybe he should, or maybe he actually is) but his final season at UW was quintessential Paul Chryst as an offensive coordinator and was about as good of a team as I can remember despite not winning the Rose Bowl (thanks Chryst). I would love to have a team like that again. So much NFL talent and developing NFL talent. It feels like we're SO far away from that.

    Bears down 19-3 to the Pats at home is a big ouch. Oh well!
