  1. The issue discussed in the article was contracting teams, not moving them though. It's sad that when sports leagues discuss contraction, Milwaukee teams are thought of first.
  2. I won the TGI Friday's call of the game one time. From my previous trips to Brewer games, I saved the Friday's number in my phone. I had a rough idea about when they would do the contest, so as soon as they flashed it on the scoreboard, I had the number called already. I wasn't even able to use the gift certificate because of all the stipulations. If I remember correctly, that was the last game of the 2005 season, and they stopped doing that contest after that, so I was the last winner of the TGI Friday's call of the game.
  3. If Doug knows who he's going to hire, why even interview anyone and just hire that guy?
  4. Buster Posey looks like Jeff Kent's child. Just throw a mustache on him.
  5. http://brewersbeat.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/10/macha_gets_moving_help.html Macha appears to be a pretty stand up guy, he just isn't a good baseball manager.
  6. For the record, it's beaNing not beaMing. Teams get in beanball wars not beamball wars. Sorry, that just bugs me.
  7. If you want to follow a German team with an American, Steve Cherundolo is captain of Hannover 96. Michael Bradley also plays for Borussia Monchengladbach and Jermaine Jones plays for Schalke 04.
  8. So LaRussa predicted Rolen would be offended by Phillips words and Rolen is almost in the middle of the whole thing taking Carpenter to the ground. Love it.
  9. Seems odd he would take essentially take himself out of the running as being the successor to Bobby Cox. Always thought Atlanta was his dream coaching gig.
  10. Jack Handy recommends hanging a big bag of blood at your outdoor gathering.
  11. After Diego Forlan was awarded the Golden Ball as the tournament's best player today, I felt the need to toot my own horn. Or should I say vuvuzela? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  12. In real time, I thought Dempsey was offside and after the replay I still think he is off because his left leg is beyond the defender. And to be in an offside position is to have any legal playing surface past the second to last defender. It was such a bang bang play though, I would have had a hard time putting blame on the assistant referee for costing the US the game. Thankfully the game winner came through. I literally had tears in my eyes and I couldn't even watch the replay so I needed to ask someone who actually scored. Such an emotional roller coaster.
  13. Edmonds seems like a candidate for an August waiver trade to a contender. I can't really see a trade for him prior to the deadline given his health risk.
  14. Does the US have a single midfielder that checks back to the ball when the defenders have it? I am so sick of seeing the defenders play a hopeful long ball to no one in particular because they have no one within 30 yards to pass to.
  15. I swear the Cubs let a pop up/fly ball drop between players at least once a season at Miller Park. In a way to make myself feel better about this season, maybe the increase in extra inning games is a sign the Brewers are starting to be a little more competitive?
  16. I'd be interested in seeing how far the ratings for the game on MLB Network plummeted once Strasburg left the game. I know I turned to the Brewer game.
  17. I'd love to hear a North Korea broadcast about how the other team and the referees are cheating and all out to sabotage the country.
  18. I always thought Edmonds had a noodle arm. Guess Holliday did too. What a throw.
  19. It is encouraging to see the two hottest players in the USMNT pool, Buddle and Gomez, continue to score goals outside their respective leagues. Thankfully they both made the roster, especially now with the knock Jozy got this week. Forward position may not be as bleak as originally thought for the U.S.
  20. Agreed, doing so would be potentially hazardous. What would be the strength of an umpire's decision if later the league could just change it?
  21. "Hi, this is Ken Griffey Jr., let's play Major League Baseball." My favorite baseball video game of all time is Major League Baseball Featuring Ken Griffey Jr. Good times. So long Junior.
  22. What is the old saying about pitchers? The hitters will tell you when you are done. Sounds like the hitters have been talking loud and clear thus far.
  23. 13-14 Tiebreaker: 7
  24. If that is the case, then why even bother bringing Ching in to camp because pace and speed have never been his game. Hopefully Findley can prove everyone wrong and actually contribute positively.
