    despite Ueck's little foible in the 6th. What was that?
  2. hawing
    Could've started that a week ago, Jamie.

    Capuano having a nice strong outing and the Crew getting the win could go a long way towards lifting the collective spirits of brewrefan.net nation. Thus begins Russ' new IGT tradition - hopefully one that is short lived. (I believe you posted nearly the same statement before Saturday's game.) It's simple why Gabe gets the playing time. Ned just sees number 18 on a jersey and says, hey, that's my guy. So we need to find a way to fashion a swap. Corey starts wearing 18 and he becomes the go-to guy. The retro pix are a nice touch. C'mon home team.....please.

    I wonder if everyone at George Webb's forgot about the 6 burgers for $5 deal yet? I wonder if we'll see it again sometime. Bob plugs the Webb deal every radio broadcast. Even when the bats were awake, I began calling George Webb a cockeyed optimist. What I wonder next is, what will the citizens of Milwaukeeland owe George Webb if the Brewers lose 12 straight?

    Hart started yesterday, and played over half the game. He clearly needed a day off today. Corey probably now needs a full week off. You can't start him more than once per homestand. I suppose I should put that in blue.
  6. hawing
    Nothing against Gabe....but....why? What does Corey H. have to do?
  7. hawing
    (Got here late) So who was even partially hoping that the Fielder-Jenkins collision would result in the latter being sat for Hart? Or would at least have considered that as a silver lining? because it's not that I would have wanted to see Jenkins hurt.

    AJAY has a point. In a way (aided by hindsight of course), I would not have minded Doug batting for himself in the 8th and trying for the CG (with a quick hook) in the 9th. His pitch count was 106, I believe, maybe 107 because the scoreboard tends to be slow to add the last pitch of an inning. The CG wasn't implausible, given how Sharpie seemed to be in a groove. Still, I can see why Ned wanted to increase the chance of insurance runs and Prince was a solid choice for PH at that moment. Kind of makes you want to slap Koskie 'longside the head, but what's done is done.

    Well... That certainly was my Sharpie on the mound tonight. 11 Ks; sigh! The end of the game was distressing, but not as much as if Doug had dug himself yet another early hole. I was wondering if there'd be a discussion on here about whether he should have had a chance to finish the game. I'd like to see more of Corey Hart, and at this point less of G-Whiff. To an extent, I can handle a losing streak. But what bugs me extra this week has been seeing these ex-Brewers - discarded parts from our crap heap - make a difference. Latest entry, Royce Clayton. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif And that "ad board is too bright" delay was just silly. (Though Jim P. made a funny when he said, "I think they're pointing at you, Bob.") I was mildly surprised that Royce didn't blame his late-game error on the flashing lights.
  10. hawing
    My first chance to see the avatar in person this year; putting our 5-1 record on the line. But Sharpie, don't do it for hawing. Do it for the full Brewer nation.
  11. hawing
    They might as well schedule KC to give the royals fans some hope.. Don't look at the last weekend of June on the calendar, then. Edit: Meant to distinguish the quote.
  12. hawing
    Winkelsas is the Garbageman. He cleans the world for you. Wouldn't it be nice if the Brewers didn't squander this leadoff triple? Just saying.

    Game 2 recap

    hawing replied to Jimbo's topic in Other Sports

    Congratulations! Just what Bf.net nation needed after the last few forgettable days of Brewers baseball. Looks like several of you raked. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif And the food...even in pictures under less than ideal lighting conditions, it looks awesome. I am even more eager for June 17 now.

    In 01 after a PNC sweep we went 30-56. In 04 after a PNC sweep we went 26-56. Well, if the Brewers lose 56 of their remaining games, they'd finish 78-84, which would be less crappy than 2001 or 2004.
  15. hawing
    Ryan Doumit is an agent of the devil. Actually, you could make that case for any if not all of the scurvy Pirates. And JK Hernandez helping to turn the screws? Pass the barf bag. All that said, a part of me is relieved it wasn't another blowout. Sure, that's rationalization, but some days that's what helps keep the head on.
  16. hawing
    Yeah, that's it. Stepford Catcher. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Well, I had the radio on at lunch just long enough to hear the (I also say suspicious, or at least mighty convenient) delay followed by first-hit...and I consult Brewerfan just as the Pirates tie. So I'm ducking out, for the team. I'll go knock on wood now.
  17. hawing
    Is it just me, or does Ryan Doumit's gameday picture make it look like his eyes are completely black? (no whites)
  18. hawing
    I just realized that I've been through worse. I understand. I felt better after reading the boxscore of the 2002 game vs. the Dodgers (all those home runs). This too will pass.
  19. hawing
    What's colder than cold? Getting owned by a pitcher your team dumped because he sucked for you. Though I admit, when the chat room discussion touched on that dreadful game with LA in May 2002 (featuring the Shawn Green dingerfest), I checked out the retrosheet box score and actually felt somewhat better.
  20. hawing
    Who can take your trash out, Stamp it down for you? Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingy too? The Garbage Man! Yes, the Garbage man can!
  21. hawing
    Is this rock bottom? If the Brewers continue to be one-hit by Victor bloody Santos, I think you could make the case.
  22. hawing
    Well, that was...what did Brian say last year...a big bowl of crap. I don't know what's up with Doug but I hope it gets figured out and fast.
  23. hawing
    Y'arrr, double the Wilson boys. I'll reiterate my curse on those scurvy curs, and the rest of the band o' rogues as well.
  24. hawing
    Well, I'll hope for better. Go Sharpie and teammates.
  25. hawing
    Maybe a link to Milwaukee weather conditions would be useful. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/eyes.gif
