  1. Yo, Manny, Capuano, Bush, Suppan McClung and Villanueva in the pen.
  2. He's already been a bench coach. And a third base coach. And an interim manager. I just happen to think that he is (wisely) trying to gather as much experience as possible, in as many areas as possible. He may or may not have been advised to do so from above.
  3. I get the feeling that this move amounts to Sveum adding to his resume, and/or being "groomed" to be the Brewers manager in the future.
  4. Brewers dump Jenkins Philadelphia bench time Earns ring with his bat
  5. Counsell's .412 career batting average with bases loaded might also have something to do with it.
  6. Not only for the "we lost to the eventual WS winners" thing, but also for the Lopes and Jenkins connections. I always liked Lopes, and I'd really like to see Jenks get a ring for all the years he played for some really bad Brewers teams.
  7. Well, as I'm sitting here kinda stunned that it's all over, I was thinking about Weeks' knee injury. Now I know why I'm one of the guys that really hopes he pulls it all together and realizes his potential. The guy goes hard on every play. I don't know the number, but I know there have been more than a few times that he's beat out what looked to be a sure out . A defender bobbles just slightly, and Weeks beats it out, whereas 90% of MLB players would be thrown out while trudging towards first. I admire that.
  8. It's been done 7 times, the first time by the '82 Brewers.
  9. Let Cameron go and start Kapler every day in the outfield. If this guy hasn't earned a starting spot, who has? Find a legitimate 3b and return Hall to "Super Sub." The Koskie injury has had one of the worst total outcomes in Brewers history. Weeks... I dunno. I'm one of the guys that still really, really wants him to realize his potential. I guess I'd keep him another year, but the leash would be short, and he'd be well aware of said short leash.
  10. I married an Illinesian. My in-laws are Cubs/ Bears fans, and her (grown) kids are all Sox/Bears fans. Nothing would be nicer to me than the Crew beating the Cubs in the NLCS, then taking the WS from the Sox.
  11. I'm not that upset with the hitting aspect of the game. Hamels was awesome. I am upset though that we lost by two of three UNEARNED runs.
  12. I certainly hope Joseph Attanasio sings The Nationhal Anthem. First pitch should be Steve Bartman throwing at a goat.
  13. My living room, watching 47" of HD goodness, munching on peanuts and Home Run Inn pizza. Crabby old men don't do well in crowds.
  14. When this team gets hot (see August) they can beat any team in baseball.
  15. I'll get the goat. You bring the virgins.
  16. Gabe Kapler Craig Counsell Jason Kendall
  17. http://images.yuku.com/image/pjpeg/e52256b98d85f468119c73b52d74e86140903f7.pjpg
  18. Pray heavily for Corey Koskie.
  19. The more I see and hear of young Mr. Braun, the better I like him.
  20. I'm a definite BA fan, and I think his style complements Rock's style tremendously. I don't have a tv in the room where the computer is (remember... I'm old, crazy, and technologically impaired) and I don't own an am radio. There are times when I have to be in here doing something when the game is on, and believe it or not, listening to BA and Rock with no pictures is almost like listening to the radio. Every play is explained in enough detail for me to be able to follow the game quite well. Try it for half an inning; you just might be surprised. Another plus (for me) is that while BA is not as knowledgeable as Rock, he doesn't attempt or pretend to be. He lets Rock do the explaining, as opposed to Sutton arguing trivial little points all the time. For those of us that aren't so deeply steeped in baseball knowledge, this is key. Rock is actually pretty good, now that he has the opportunity to be. That being said, I have one teeny tiny complaint with BA. When the Crew is batting, I don't like it when he says "(insert player name here) would be next." It has a negative connotation to it. I'd much rather he say "(insert player name here) will be next." It just sounds better.
  21. In my mind (old and feeble as it may be) it should be Ankiel. What an amazing story. As for Mr. Kapler, I wish he could play third base. It just kills me to not have this guy in the every day lineup.
  22. God bless the bandwagon fans. Without 'em, this never woulda happened.
  23. Archie Bunker Frank Barone Anyone named Costanza
  24. Peter: Just don't forget our deal, Lois. I sit through this and later tonight I get anal. You hear me? No matter how neat I want the house you have to clean it.
  25. I've been known as "Big Dan" most of my adult life. I lost about 180 pounds, so now I'm "Not So Big Dan" (although I still have some work to do).
