  1. I apologize, but your demeanor here turns off a lot of posters... Yup, I shouldn't have gone there.
  2. If your job is to be the board dick, you deserve a raise... A bit harsh mate! You are new here, stick around, and you'll understand.
  3. yup, the love will come back pretty quickly if he actually starts helping the team win games. There wasn't a ton of love a year ago when he was raking. People have poked a part his game since he has been here. Last year, the part of his game that got poked apart was his asinine baserunning mistakes. Hasn't been as big of an issue this year though, because the guy never gets on base... Not that he hasn't made the same base running mistakes when he has been on, that is for certain, but fewer only because he doesn't get on base.

  6. I don't think anyone hates the guy, but he needs to give us a reason to like him again. It;'s been a miserable, disappointing season, and it isn't like it is the 2nd week of the season, he has sucked since day one. Forgive us for expecting our 2B to make plays that 100% of all other MLB 2B would make. It is becoming habitual, and tiring. Celebrating him making the next routine play is a bit funny imo. Chase Utley booted an easy ball a half inning before. It happens. And there is hatred. The guy could play well for a month and make a base running error and the pitch forks would come right back out. It's craziness. It happens all right, far too frequently. This is a fan board, fans make comments that might not match your opinion, it happens...
  7. I don't think anyone hates the guy, but he needs to give us a reason to like him again. It's been a miserable, disappointing season for Villar, and it isn't like it is the 2nd week of the season, and we are over-reacting. He has sucked since day one. Forgive us for expecting our 2B to make plays that 100% of all other MLB 2B would make. It is becoming habitual, and tiring. Celebrating him making the next routine play is a bit funny imo.
  8. it surely wasn't surprising... so glad he turned down our offer.
  9. I am tired of Villar. Can't hit, can't field. Just tired of it.
  10. Rock just said: "That's a hell of a slider!" Is that allowed? lol
  11. Some weren't giving him much hope to returning to what he was a year ago. Hope this continues. Count me in that group, but I'll be happy to admit I'm wrong...
  12. Thanks for all the suggestions guys/gals! Keep them coming! Btw, we have been to Galena on a couple different occasions, we are from Platteville originally, so that is in our neck of the woods. Also visited Lake Geneva on our 20 year anniversary, but that is a great suggestion, we had a good time there...
  13. Thanks, it is now-a-days for sure!
  14. Great, let me know when you know...lol thanks! She wants to keep it...sorry! No problem, thanks for letting me know...
  15. My wife and I will be married 25 years in august. Anyone have suggestions for a destination in WI for a couple of days at that time? We've done Door County numerous times, so looking for suggestions that do not include Door County. Thank in advance!
  16. Great, let me know when you know...lol thanks!
  17. I haven't been to a lot of MLB stadiums myself, which is why we plan to hit a bunch, if not all in the coming years. I've been to Miller Park, County Stadium, the new Yankee Stadium, Citi Field, Target Field, Anaheim in 1991, and the old Reds stadium when I was a kid (saw Pete Rose's 28th game of the hitting streak).
  18. Thanks for the reply, and getting this thread back on topic... We are hitting the Mudhens game first, followed by the 3 MLB games. I have only been to T-Rats games as far as minor league games, so it will be nice to see how other minor league teams conduct business... We plan to do KC, CIN, St. Louis and both Chicago stadiums next summer, with another minor league game thrown in if at all possible. Hopefully this will be a yearly event until all the MLB stadiums have been seen live in person.
  19. Actually, we have 2 counting CC Sabathia's error game, which should have been a no hitter.
  20. I do not understand why so many think that $19 or $20 million to Braun per year isn't going to affect other deals, trades, acquisitions. That kind of money will surely put the dampers on spending big money for a free agent TOR pitcher when we get closer to a player like that being a difference maker. 20 million may not be a lot to large market teams, but to us, that is 1/5 of our total salary. Right now, this season, yes, that money means nothing, but if it comes down to signing a big time free agent on a multi year contract as soon as next season, you can bet that 20 million is going to factor into those kind of decisions. That 20 million could go to a player to get us over the hump, but having it tied up in an aging decrepit Ryan Braun has to hurt our chances. Without owing that kind of dead money to Braun, it could also stop us from signing 2 TOR pitchers, and may limit us to only one. 20 million is a ton of money to us, I just don't understand how anyone thinks owing that kind of money to an often DL bound player won't strap us.
  21. Actually, no one has any idea what he would do if given the option. Also, imo, no AL team is going to want Braun to play in the field, if he is traded, it will be to DH... Again, these are opinions, so I won't state them as factual.
  22. Are cluster headaches and migraines different things?
