As for BCU, it's not my call, but I think if you make a plausible promise (eating a hat is clearly hyperbole), you should expect to be held to that promise. In life, and especially on a message board, you're only as good as your word. He has lived up to his word. To me his point was that the Brewers would still make the playoffs, which at that point very few of us actually believed would happen. That was the real meaning in what he was doing and he was also trying to breath some life back into the fans on this site. So, in a sense what he was predicting came true - just not the 8-0 part or whatever it was. I guess it just comes down to how much of a stickler the mod or site wants to be on this. He didn't break any rules as far as I know and even turned down an autographed jersey offered up from another poster when they did indeed make the postseason because he said that was all he wanted and cared about. He has stayed away for 5 months and did not come up with a new handle like many people predicted he would. Personally, I miss having him post on here and the inside iformation that he provided indirectly through various avenues.
