    Terrible. Just terrible. That HR call was the story.....so mad at that call.....

    USCHO pre-season rankings came out today. UW ranked #13. Pretty high for a team that lost something like 10 of its top 12 players.....but it shows the respect that this program has earned and the recruiting that goes on. Hockey is pretty healthy at UW. I really hope for a decent year.....UW always has a ton of skill....but they are going to be young and untested.

    Thank you all for making me very, very, very happy with this topic. You have all made my day!

    On a west coast swing last year, my wife and I hit up Petco and Dodger Stadium. Petco was very cool. I would go to a game there again in a second! Good seats are fairly cheap, very nice place, and the surrounding area is very fun. The fans were very "into it" and gave me a hard time for cheering for the crew. The wife really enjoyed it. Dodger stadium was the opposite....pretty boring place, waaaayyyy to expensive for what you get, old, fans were boring....just not very fun. Dodger fans arrived late, taunted the Angels fans who were there causing general chaos, and just made it an odd experience. And I saw the brewers kick butt..... I also agree that Coors is a cool place, as is Comerica. I have been to both, but not for Brewer games.... I envy anyone who has been to many stadiums and definately have visiting them all on my bucket list.

    (BTW I just want to start this discussion......I dont have any dislike of Mark A or anything, I just want to see if others wonder the same thing)

    To start a new discussion on our owner..... Does anyone out there feel like Attanasio sees the Brewers as an investment, and when the time is good to sell, he is going to get out? Just wondering.....I would be curious to know how much he really cares about baseball/Brewers or if its just another investment in his portfolio. (That is how he made his fortune) If this is the case, I could see how LA being nearer to his home and a bigger market would look like a better option to him. He doesent strike me as an all-in "baseball-guy" type of owner.....yes I know, he spends more money than any previous owner, but then again, dont most of the MLB owners do the same? I dont think he loses much sleep over the day to day results of the team.....maybe no owners do. I sure like how the Crew has pushed to be competitive in the last few years, and definately want them to stay that way. Will a new owner help/hurt this? Who knows.....but I know having a mega rich owner (Cuban) would certainly help to keep this team competitive.

    The guy who owns/designs Rock Bats (Roland Hernandez) helped to get the patent on this design. He is having a pretty good year, to say the least...... Its pretty cool that Rock Bats are owned/designed/manufactured all in Wisconsin.

    I deal with this every day in Madison and it frustrates me to no end. They have their own bike lanes here and still, they are out in the street next to the lanes......(on campus) Whats bugging me right now is the Brett Favre slobber fest. We get it, the media loves to talk about him. But to hear the same stories year after year......ugh
  9. Buckylovesbeer
    I agree with Davego. As far as his number, my vote is no.
  10. Buckylovesbeer
    One key factor you guys all need to think about......Castro has been ruined because he is a Cub. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  11. Buckylovesbeer
    And Wes Helms......too funny that he is a spokesperson for anything. What got me was the fact he drove in 5 runs during the game......who knew?

    I think part of all of this that many people are forgetting is apparently Morgan had been running his mouth both last night (after the first hbp), but also after he hit the catcher the night before. Early word this morning was that he was doing a lot of talking about his hit from Tuesday night. It all blew up once he got on base to steal after the first hbp. While being on base and stealing, he was jawing at everyone within earshot. Wanting to "go." I am not sure if I am a guy who is about 5'10", and 160lbs (he is officially listed as bigger, but we all know how that goes) I would not pick a fight with a pitcher who is a tad bigger than Kameron Loe. The jump punch may have worked if he would have landed it, or have had some mass behind it. Him getting drilled.....you go to a fight, you have to expect it. Its not too often you see a real bench clearing brawl, including a coach involved! His actions....whatever. Some will like it, some will hate it. This sucker was building for a while and we all were entertained. I would not want him as a Brewer, esp w/Lo Cain.

    Shazam is my favorite......love the droid. Also, if you download the Urban Dictionary App, that is good for a laugh or two a day. If your into that kind of humor..... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    I love my 09 Corolla. Never have had a problem. This is a great topic, because it was these two models that I chose from. I think both cars are great.

    Agree with all of you. BP is all-good in my book

    In a Milwaukee bar, in one of the greatest drinking cities of America, I would expect all of the above. As a true fan of drinking, I love all of it.....except perhaps for that stuff they produce in St. Louis http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Even in a small bar you can find the right things to have a good time. Variety is key. Lovin this topic.....

    "Breakfasts come and go, Rene. Now Hartford, the Whale? They only beat Vancouver once or twice in a lifetime."One of my favorite movies of all time. Great quote! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif I am a pens fan. Love em, always have. I will be that guy if it makes me that guy. Just wish they had a Badger in the linup Dany Heatley is the best Badger going right now, but the Polish Prince (Joe Pa) is catching up fast. Dont forget the Moose - Brian Elliot - He has been pretty darn good on a very average team.

    To add another thought.......as you see more and more kids play fewer sports (the overall decline of the "three sport athelete) it would have been awesome to have a chance to play four sports....spring golf would have been very fun. Unfortunately, the weather would still suck. But I would have killed in high school to have a chance to add a fourth sport....many schools dont even allow it anymore. At last check, spring baseball in the WIAA was down to something like 52 teams. In Spring ball, Division I alone, there are 94 teams. That is a lot of competition between schools/players that we as fans/parents/coaches never get to see. The WIAA rule that summer ball teams cannot play legion programs has been challenged several times, and always failed. It would be cool to see how some of the summer ball major players (Arrowhead, West Bend West, etc) would match up against the Legion Powerhouses (Kimberly, La Crosse, DePere) and the Spring Power programs (Sun Prairie, Bay Port, Kimberly). That is a ton of matchups that never happen. Having two seperate seasons with two sets of champions seems so silly. As a player, I know I would want to beat the best! As someone mentioned at the beginning of this topic, if just a few more schools go to spring ball, Summer ball may be scrapped all together due to the lack of enough teams.

    I agree 100% with you RockCo. Legion ball rocks.....and it sucks that the WIAA summer ball teams miss out on that experience.
  20. Buckylovesbeer
    Spring is for baseball. Summer is for Legion Baseball. I honestly feel bad for the Summer ball teams....they dont get a chance to really see what they have against the majority of the teams in the state. The WIAA does not allow Legion teams to play summer ball teams, so that competition is out the door. Legion ball is awesome, kids are relaxed, and lots of scouts come to the playoffs. Plus, after having the entire spring season under their belts, the kids look and play their best. Being a spring baseball coach is cool too, because then you can relax and watch all the ball in the summer. I think it sucks that all kids cannot play at the same time.....and I agree that summer ball is slowly coming to an end. I hope they fix it soon.

    Dude who designs the bats lives in Monona. Great guy, very happy for him. Lets hope it is the bats, and that they keep hitting bombs.

    Growing up on a farm, we had to deal with this stuff. If you were not in a city, shooting would be an option. However, you are in a city so dont shoot it, its not worth the trouble. So my advice......Dont kill it on your property unless you want to smell em for a long time. When they die, muscles relax and then the smell comes out......... Call an expert or try something to spook them off. Once they are gone, try to figure out why they came in the first place and get rid of it! If its just a nice place for them to dig for their den, find a way to prevent this same group from moving back. Otherwise they will come back next spring.

    Funny stuff. Nolan Ryan thinks the 100-pitch limit is a joke.....he threw into the 130's quite often and he was alright.....dont know if EJ is quite at his level though. Does not matter what he does, he will be sore for a few days. That deafening roar was very impressive http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Please score some runs......

    I laughed out loud reading this! They should have had her say "Its time to play the game."
