  1. I think that this poses an interesting question, and one that my brother and I have been debating recently. The current "M with the barley" logo is already one of the longer serving logos in team history: The Beer Barrel Man: 1970-1977= 8 seasons The Ball and Glove: 1978-1993= 16 seasons The Industrial MB: 1994-1999= 6 seasons Current Barley M: 2000-2012= 13 seasons and counting Perhaps it dates me, but it is very hard to believe that we are close to a decade and a half with this logo and that it is already the second longest serving logo in team history. To me, it represents the opening of Miller Park and the Brewers return to respectability/playoff baseball after many a long season in the previous Industrial MB logo. To answer your question, I do think that it is almost time for another logo but not one that we've used in the past. I enjoy it when we do the occasional turn back the clock game, or even some Retro Fridays thrown in (I really liked the 40 year celebration a few years ago when we wore all of the old jerseys one day throughout the season) but perhaps we can come up with our next look without having to recycle something that was previously used. All of these logos and uniforms represent great memories to me of different times in Brewers history but I think something totally new can build on this tradition without having to go backwards. I would like to recycle one tradition though for when the franchise does decide to make the switch: open up the design contest to the fans.
  2. Much more interested in the Crew somehow pulling this game out perosonally...
  3. Can we please hold this lead next inning? I don't care how many games out of it we are it will always be satisfying to beat the Cardinals.
  4. It appears that the Brewers have acquired infielder Jeff Baker from Detroit for a player to be named later. His overall numbers look fairly pedestrian but he does his left-handers exceedingly well. As a utility guy, I can see why we give him a chance to prove himself over the course of the final month of this season and then reeevaluate in the off-season. In any event, he clearly picks up Ransom's role for the next few weeks. Edit: Braves, not Brewers -owbc
  5. For those watching on tv, I'm assuming that was the unintentional intentional?
  6. That's the place. I live about five minutes down the road and have never seen any other ballplayers there.
  7. Since this happened shortly after today's game, I am really hoping that no one from this board was at this bar. http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/28/us/missouri-tent-collapse/index.html?hpt=hp_t1 It's obviously tragic that this happened to anyone, but considering that many of our fans might have made the trip to the game today it seems especially relevant.
  8. Yeah, I actually kind of enjoyed McCarver there for a moment.
  9. Though I am really not sure who in this bullpen I feel confident enough in to hold STL anyways.
  10. Haha, I just flew out of DC late last night and was shocked by all the hoopla as well.
  11. Wow do I hate the Cardinals. It seems like they are always able to exploit any miscue on our part, every single time.
  12. Is it just gameday, or did West miss one to two pitches that should have been strikes in that at bat to Snyder? Frustrating.
  13. I am wishing that this game was televised today, but I will just have to deal with it and tune into Uke and Joe for the first extended period this year.
  14. Harry, I took care of it Pretty bird, pretty bird. Polly wanna cracker?
  15. Yes Escobar is better. We would have a SS for the next few years also. Never going to happen. While I understand the value of having cost-controlled years with Alcides, I really am not convinced that he's going to be anything other than an average offensive/plus defender in the years to come. Obviously Gonzalez is not tied to us for that many seasons, but I really doubt that Escobar's offensive production will be much better than Gonzalez this season. I am all for going for it again this year, and I think that our 8-9 inning guys in the pen will have a lot to do with that potential success.
  16. Yeah, I really hope we see a Molitor statue soon. Definitely long overdue. I agree. I know he didn't leave here under the best of circumstances, but I firmly believe that a big part of that belongs on the organization and not on Molitor. He went into the Hall as a Brewer, and is one of only two to do so. I think it's well deserved and long overdue.
  17. http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/143659666.html It looks like one additional change at MP will be a statue of Bob Uecker outside. Sounds great, kind of surprised it hasn't happened already to be honest.
