    I also like an agressive 3rd base coach......but I dont think its a good idea with your cleanup hitter coming up. Although this season Prince is off to a slower start. Who knows. Gobias is right, it did take two perfect throws. A good effort. Lets not be mad about that.
  2. Buckylovesbeer
    So Cal, Gobias, I could not agree with either of you more!
  3. Buckylovesbeer
    That nice play in right was pretty awful when you think about it.......come on man, your a pro. That should not have been that difficult.......
  4. Buckylovesbeer
    Ok....time to update this...... We now need Escobar and McGehee to get going......come on BF.net, dont let us down!
  5. Buckylovesbeer
    Hey Prince, next at bat, lets hit it the same distance, however, not straight to center field! Also....I may have to update the slump thread so that McGehee busts outta his slump Way to Go Eddy!

    This ump decided not to give Yo the outside corner.......and Yo decided to get wild. Ugh
  7. Buckylovesbeer
    Hey! Weeks walk! Thats a good start.....lets see what they do with it

    I agree Homer, that game was really fun to watch. This year the NHL playoffs have been outstanding......almost every game has been fun to watch

    The major league forum is getting depressing. Prince struggling.....Trevor blowing up......fire the manager......fire the GM. I just read that Rickie is batting .103/.205/.179 over his last 30 abs, including 15 strikeouts in 30 abs. This is all bad news......none of us are "experts." So lets have some fun with this! Who is going to break out of their slump first, and how?

    Hopefully to pick up fresh beer..... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Sheethead said it best to me. I am bored with this team, and its sad. They have got to get the offense going!

    Thats because of the stories they used to make this series.....Basilone was a key character that they followed in the book "The Pacific." After his war bond tour, when he returned, it was not with the first marines anymore. Good Job Crew 07! Danny, you should read the books they used to make it, including the two mentioned above. If you like the tv series, you will definately love the books.

    Which version of Catcher in the Wry? I read Bob Uecker's version in High School (its about his days in the minor leagues) and it was very funny!
  14. Buckylovesbeer
    I agree.....I thought he said the same thing. Basilone is such a huge character in the book, that I think they felt they had to dedicate another episode to him......the short battle scene was cool. This whole series seems to be rushed. I wish they had more episodes.....
  15. Buckylovesbeer
    They need another athletic "big" and some help at the 2 spot. As far as who.....if you draft, good luck. Seems like there is a 50/50 chance of a stud or a bust. A big trade could help keep the mojo going in Milwaukee......they have a good thing going right now and need to keep it up. There is genuine excitement right now
  16. Buckylovesbeer
    Hey Villa, try keeping somebody close..... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif If they are going to make a run at this game, they have got to score now.... 2,3,4 coming up
  17. Buckylovesbeer
    He has struck out a lot. But look at the rest of his stats. Pretty darn good. I agree that his stats are pretty good.....obp, rbis, etc. I am worried, however, at his strikeouts. A large percentage of his K's have been in the last week. THIS TEAM NEEDS TO SCORE AT SOME POINT THIS SEASON, PIRATES EXCLUDED
  18. Buckylovesbeer
    Rickie is now tied for second in the majors with 33 strikeouts this season. Not good......it would help if he could turn things around.
  19. Buckylovesbeer
    Not a good first half in game 7......knock down some shots guys!
  20. Buckylovesbeer
    Atlanta is a perfect example on why the NBA is so hard to watch. 5 very tallented players who dont work together at all. Their entire offense is to isolate one guy and try to drive or get a jumpshot. One to two passes max. That team should be much, much, better. Some of those guys are very good. But they are struggling against the Bucks, who nobody picked. I would love to see the Bucks pull this off! This season's team plays the game as a team and works very hard. Fear the Deer!
  21. Buckylovesbeer
    After staying up late watching the last two nights ( 22 scoreless innings!) I feel pretty demoralized. And tired.
  22. Buckylovesbeer
    I agree......I think the decisions that are being made during this administration can improve. Lets hope they do soon. And after the poor showing in San Diego.......Macha, can you please show some emotion of some kind? He looks like he is going to fall asleep in the dugout!
  23. Buckylovesbeer
    Prince should have been on the base, considering that guy dogged it down the line and it would have been a close play. What the hell happened to this team?
  24. Buckylovesbeer
    This game is killing me......come on guys, make something happen. At this point I will take about anything.

    Just finished the latests in my war book collection, although this one is not a WWII book, which is rare for me. "The Great Gamble - The Soviet War in Afghanistan" by Gregory Feifer - 2009 Probably the most difficult read I have ever tackled. Lots of names of Soviets and Afghan, Arabs, etc. The first 50 pages took a long time to read and understand. After the intro, the book itself is pretty interesting. Since it is quite new, the author has a unique perspective on how the Soviet struggle in Afg. is similar and different to the current NATO operation. But it is told on a personal level, because the author tells the story of the conflict by interviewing the people who were there on both sides. I was surprised at a lot of the facts that are coming out of the former Soviet Union - More deaths for them there than US deaths in Vietnam, but also that the USSR made no attempt to find MIA's or to notify parents of MIA's - the just assumed (and under the belief that all captured soviets are traitors and should be punished) that all missing soldiers were dead. The US played a large role in that war, and most of us know that. But the Saudi's played a huge role as well, basically with their funding and weapons. A very challenging topic and read, but something that I would argue none of us are experts on.
