    I've never understood people holding out for Rickie to become a "Brandon Phillips type player. Sure, I wish he had Phillips' glove and durability. But Weeks is the better hitter, and pretty much always has been.

    I'll give that a try, danzig. Sounds really good.

    I'm going to a Super Bowl party and want to bring brats, already cooked and all set to go. At large gatherings, people have those big pots that keep the brats warm, and they taste awesome, even a few hours later. I'm looking to replicate that. What's the standard procedure for this? Boil in beer before or after grilling, or both? If both, do I have to make a new batch of "soak"? I don't wanna let these people down, so please help!

    Same here. Can't wait for that game. Bucks are making a mini-run. Should be interesting to see if they can stay in it tonight @ ORL. Bogut has been simply phenomenal the last month. He's got his fg% up to 52, and his ft% at 64.

    Guy on the left has a striking resemblance to Brad Pitt. /Hollywood Casting Directors

    I hope that a full year off will help Sheets stay away from the nagging injuries he has been so prone to. He was one of my favorites on the Brewers, and is a guy I'll continue to follow. But I don't like this for the A's. There is a very significant chance that it could be money completely wasted.

    That was definitely Beck up there, GSYPE. What a difference between Jay's last show and Conan's. Leno was reading his good-bye off of a freakin' teleprompter, and Conan gets up there and jams with a bunch of rock stars and a hillbilly Will Ferrell just after giving his heartfelt goodbye.

    New episode tonight (I guess you could call it that). Clip show. Kind of disappointing that this was the first episode after a lengthy break. Parks & Rec continues to kill it. The transformation from season 1 to 2 has been amazing. Anyone else recognize Poehler's new boyfriend is Timothy "is that a gram?" Bryce from American Psycho? 30 Rock hasn't been as good this year imo. The episode last week with James Franco was top class, but in general, I think it's become too stale. Archer on FX (took over the Sunny timeslot) is the funniest show I've seen since, well, probably IASIP. And I'm someone who usually HATES animated series. Start watching it if you haven't.
  9. Gobias Industries
    Agreed on all fronts, Diskono. Meeks needs to go down to find his shot. Sending Joe to the D's would make a lot more sense if we had picked up his option for next year.
  10. Gobias Industries
    Rumor has it that Howard Stern might be one of Conan's last guests. That would be awesome, as he's probably the biggest Jay Leno hater of anyone.

    The thing is, you can "play to win" while starting young guys that might have a future with the team. No one wants to tank by starting a lineup of Ridnour, Stackhouse, Delfino, Thomas, Elson. If someone does, they're a complete idiot. Maybe you're confusing tanking with actively trying to lose games by playing bad players quite a few minutes, but I don't think anyone is trying to advocate that. After all, it is a lottery, and basically "throwing" games would be toxic to a franchise. We can play our young, "talented" players and still probably lose most nights. We just don't have enough talent to compete with most teams. That is completely on John Hammond. I think a lineup of Jennings, Meeks, LRMAM, Ilyasova, and Bogut is probably gonna lose more often than not. But each of them playing 35 minutes together is good for their development, and gives the FO (however incompetent they might be) a chance to properly evaluate them. Not to mention a better chance at landing a top pick in a loaded draft. If they go out and make a win-now trade for a vet all hope is lost. I'd be done with them until Hammond was canned.
  12. Gobias Industries
    I agree, but it would be nice to have said player NOT be a washed up 35 yr old vet. This signing doesn't make any sense. It also means we should be pretty damn certain Hammond is not gonna sell off his expirings at the deadline if the opportunity presents itself. If that's the case, we're in worse shape than I ever could have imagined. It's just one bad move after another with Hammond.
  13. Gobias Industries
    That seems like a pretty solid comp. When I first saw Gamel I instantly thought JD Drew. Solid power, solid batting average, similar stance, a very similar disciplined approach (gonna take their share of called third strikes, which drive most fans mad). If he can develop into that type of high OBP player it's gonna help this offense a ton. Perfect #2 between Rickie and Braun.
  14. Gobias Industries
    No. I think they've been a complete mess since their 8-3 start. Sure, they made a nice run last night and it actually became an entertaining game (that's why I had a strong reaction to it), but once again, this team doesn't have any chance to compete this year. I'm not a guy who's a perpetual "tanker" and wants to punt entire seasons like some people advocate doing. I was for the RJ trade at the time, Bogut's extension, and a bunch of other win now moves. But once this team shows that it can't compete, which is usually by January, I'm ready to sell of assets to look toward the next season. I was for dumping RJ at the deadline last year (when he turned out to be garbage) to set up payroll flexibility for the offseason. I'm for exploring Bogut trades to possible contenders, where he's much more valuable, because let's face it, he's not a top 2 player on a contending team. He's just not that talented. I'd trade any of our expirings that have value (Ridnour, Warrick). And it's absurd that you feel the need to mock me for overreacting to a day where this franchise had its max player go down with a second acl tear in a one year period, have it's coach go to the hospital for a irregular heartbeat , and lose a very winnable game to a Phoenix team that we never beat away.
  15. Gobias Industries
    As usual, this team is an absolute mess by the new year. It's down to waiting for the lottery, again. Also, I'm completely at peace with trading Bogut. He just can't be counted on.
  16. Gobias Industries
    Well put homer. I drive a 4wd, but routinely have big trucks (and even small fwd cars) pass me during snow storms. It brings a smile to my face to see these people in the median several miles ahead.
  17. Gobias Industries
    I still had a good view of the botched catch .gif posted above endaround's reply about Holliday's good defense. Bad timing.
  18. Gobias Industries
    I hadn't seen that TLB. Interesting stuff. I was shocked when this story broke. I've met the guy and he's without a doubt the most friendly, gracious athlete I've ever met.
  19. Gobias Industries
    That would just prove that Yost was ahead of his time! Haha. Might as well shut down the site if that's the case.

    trwi7: Do you have a stream for tonights game? If you do, send me a pm. I don't think the mod who shall remain nameless who posts here can't ban us if we do it this way. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  21. Gobias Industries
    It's a godsend. He was guaranteed next year, and he's the 3rd PG. You don't need a 3rd PG on a contract more than a year, especially when we're gonna give a ton of minutes to our developing PG over the next couple of years. Also, he's just not very good. At all. Hopefully, they waive Delfino in the offseason (he's only partially guaranteed) and Hammond can move on from that terrible trade.
  22. Gobias Industries
    He's got a decent perimeter game, doesn't he? If so, he'll be a 4 in the NBA (like a Rashard Lewis). The league seems to be trending towards finesse players at the PF spot.
  23. Gobias Industries
    Sweet. What's your name? The Bucks and their front office can preach culture change and playing hard, but talent wins in the NBA and the Bucks are bottom three in the NBA talent wise. Be Here Now. That's a very entertaining board (that Sigra guy is hilarious, MBBOT is unreal, I seriously think that 2 people share that account because of how much he contradicts himself with one post to the next). It has a ton of good information, even though you kind of have to sift through the personal grudges to sometimes find it. I've respected yours and many others posts there for quite awhile. Also, I'm ready to tank. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif http://i422.photobucket.com/albums/pp309/npascare2/johnwall.gif

    Well this year, Redd has actually played a lot like Adam Morrison (before he became a fixture on the Lakers bench). That's the new flavor of the day at RealGM btw, I've started posting over there so I'm up to date on all the nicknames. He's been cleared to play for a couple of months now. I know he's not 100%, but he's probably not far off. I'd be shocked if he's a 20 ppg guy again. You're one of the guys who argued Redd was a top 20 player in the league as late as last year though, so I can see why you'd think otherwise.
  25. Gobias Industries
    Good for him. I hope he gets a roster spot. Also, I've always thought that Posada and Rivera could pass as brothers.
