  1. Unbelievable play! If that costs the Giants the series, it will go down in history along with Billy Buckner's mistake!!!!
  2. Really sick of the Mo'ne Davis commercial...
  3. $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Ridiculousness...
  4. I don't like Gomez leading off either... He does not have a lead-off hitters frame of mind........EVER!
  5. I'm rooting hard for the Royals tonight! This has been a very entertaining series, someday, yes someday this will be the Brewers...
  6. Maybe if he wasn't dreaming of the cubs and playing with his pal Lester, he would have had his head in the game last night and pitched better... He stunk the joint up! It's the World Series, how on earth can someone be thinking of next year with everything riding on the here and now? Amazing...
  7. I'm not sure how anyone can say anything negative about this move... We have no idea how good the kid is, and taking a flyer on a guy with minor league numbers as good as his is just brilliant in my opinion... I don't think we can make any accurate comparisons to anyone in our organization until we see him stack up against them. Sometimes it feels like some of our own fans just want to go against any kind of move we make... We literally have nothing to lose by picking him up, not a single thing, and if he sticks, good for us!
  8. This sure looks like a great pick-up...I like it, can't hurt...
  9. RIP Mrs. Kotter... That cast has suffered several losses, and none of them were that old... One of my favorite shows of all time, now available on a boxed set dvd! You can only by season one separately, which is a bummer.
  10. I can't remember the last time I paralleled parked. I avoid it at any cost...
  11. Correct me if I am wrong, but would that mean we had to have a 1B with a 6 WAR for that to be the case?
  12. I won't be sharing opinions on Brewers bobbles any longer... I guess I thought this was a forum to make comments, and sometimes vent on the hobby, my bad.
  13. If they have to do bobbles that fans don't care about, then in my opinion, they are doing too many... Why not just do 6 that they know will draw big interest, instead of 10 or 12 that there will be lukewarm interest in?
  14. teenagers bug me...
  15. Bobble games do not "always" sell out on a regular basis like they used to. Some bobbles generate more interest than others (Hank the Dog, Yount, etc.) but if you have paid attention to the past 2 or 3 years, there were games where they had 10,000 or more bobbles go unclaimed. Bobble games are not automatic sell outs like in the past, not even close.
  16. It sure doesn't hurt though... It does if you overpay to get one based on the false premise you need him to win a World Series. You didn't say anything about overpaying an ace, you just said the idea of an ace is over hyped, over stated, obviously false, etc...
  17. *sigh* In 2015 there will be 11 from the T-Rats and 14 from the Brewers? (T-Rats have announced 10, but that doesn't include the opening day bobble, which they have now done since 2009...) That doesn't even take into account that there will probably be some retro versions of some of them, with no warning ahead of time or explanation as to how many retros are being distributed. Ridiculous. The casual fans don't care about the bobbles anymore. They used to be a draw, even from those that don't collect them all, now they give out so many, I don't think the typical fan gives a rip any longer... There isn't even much demand on ebay for them, they sell dirt cheap. So cheap that collectors don't even feel they have to attend the games any longer, they are just so easy to get. It's too bad really, but this is the exact thing that will kill the hobby with over-saturation. I hope there isn't another Hank the Dog version, that one is so pathetically lame as it is, we don't need another one. Lucroy STH. Brat is a given to complete the 3rd set of sausage bobbles. Peralta, Davis, Garza are also locks... Fiers?? If they sign a 1B like LaRoche, he'll get one. I doubt they keep K-Rod, but if they do, he'll finally get one. After that it's a crap shoot. and don't forget the stitch -n- pitch brat as well... I too would like to see some of the classic guys get one. Nieves to honor our only no-hitter, Teddy H., even Ted Simmons never got a full sized bobble... Deer, Vaughn, Sixto are others I'd like to see.
  18. Nice play Aoki... What a let down this game has been...
  19. Sad to say it, but I'm going with the Giants in 5... I want KC to win it all, but not sure their magic can continue much longer. I hope I am wrong.
  20. "would Ned have stuck with McGehee or Yuni in 2011 despite them being absolutely terrible?" I think we had the only manager in MLB that WOULD have stuck with them...
  21. If The Yankees pay 90% of A-Rod's salary, I'd take him off their hands... You never know, they may be pretty motivated to trade him, but I'm guessing he has a no-trade clause, and I'm guessing Milwaukee would be on it... I have almost no interest in Prado, he was a train wreck last year. If we could get him cheap, and we lose Ramirez, I'd have a little interest, but he can play other positions too, so maybe he has more value than I give him credit for. I really do not want to start the season with Nelson in our rotation, I'm not entirely sure he has earned the #5 spot just yet. It is nice to have him as an injury back-up, but he just didn't seem ready in my opinion. A rotation with Fiers as our #5 sure looks a lot better than Nelson as our #5...
  22. I'd take Yost over RRR any day. Yost at the very least has balls, RRR does not.
  23. I'm also gald that all games start at the same time... Just makes it easier.
  24. Odorizzi was part of the trade, can we say if he was a "key" part, maybe not... You are nitpicking what I said, no big deal...
