Full disclosure: I am a duke fan... but how is Allen a punk? You just put him in the same sentence as a guy that smashed another player's head into the ground. Good grief...

My bachelor party also involved Miller Park. I agree with not seeing the value of the suites/table packages. Mine was : Golf in the AM. Rented a school bus with driver to bring us to MP at 1230. Tailgate and took in a 3pm Brewer game, got plenty drunk. Bus took us to some bars after. Started at Old German Beer hall, ended at Victor's, with 1-2 bars in between. No strip clubs. Never been to one, never will. Wouldn't have it any other way. (The 3pm Saturday brewer game is the way to go)

Crap now it might have been the Mets backing out because of the Gomez hip issue... !!###!!! $$$$$!#

My analysis is below. (keep in mind this is coming from a Duke fan first who also roots for Bucky)... actually I have 3 teams - Marquette/Duke are 1 and 1a, then Wisconsin. I root for Wisconsin when they are playing anyone but MU and Duke. I have seen a lot of Badger games and I have seen almost every Duke game this year. Anyways... - Duke owned UW in the first match up. But... - Duke shot lights out. They wont shoot 65% tonight. (Good for UW) - UW got very little from Dekker. (Good for UW) - Duke had Sulaimon, who played well. (Good for UW) - Hayes will do better than he did in December. (Good for UW) - Duke is a much better defensive team now. (Good for Duke) - UW got a career game from Jackson. I dont think Jackson + Koenig can get 28 pts tonight. (Good for Duke) - Winslow is wayyy better than he was in December. (Good for Duke) - Matt Jones is no longer a non-existent player like he was in Dec. (Good for Duke) Overall, I think Dekker and Winslow are pretty evenly matched. Same with Okafor and Kaminsky. Same with the bench players (Dukan/Jackson/Showalter/Brown vs. Jefferson/Allen/Plumlee). I think Hayes (if he's right) gives UW an advantage, but Cook/Jones could give Duke a slight edge in guard play. UW has the "experience" and they are "closers". But Duke has Coach K, and some freshman who dont play like freshman. - All in all, I think it's a great game, likely to go down to the wire. - UW is susceptible to long droughts (Duke should take advantage to a UW drought better than Kentucky) - Both teams are good closers, especially when they have any sort of lead in the last 4 minutes. Uw slightly more so. My pick: - My analysis and recent history tell me UW wins a close game... But Duke has been completely under the radar, and that should scare Bucky fans. Plus UW to me has a bigger chance of laying an egg after that Kentucky win. (it honestly seemed like UW won the championship Saturday night) I think Duke wins by 4.

has anybody else had any issues viewing the site on their mobile Android phones? all of the text for me is crammed on to the left side of my screen and it makes it very difficult to read through all of the posts. any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

If Duke loses only 1 more game, they likely will keep a 1 seed unless both Villanova & Wisconsin win out. Duke's resume is very impressive.

Bucks with a 98.3% chance of making the playoffs according to fivethirtyeight.com Awesome!

"I can't think of any scenario in which this is a bad thing." Here's an example of a possible bad scenario: Let's say there are other houses in your neighborhood that are for sale, and let's also say that your house , the house next door and these houses for sale would all be considered comperable (in terms of size, # of beds/baths, etc.) If these other homes for sale are on the market for market value, a flipper could mess things up by making the home as good or even better than these other homes and then price it to sell. If the other homes are priced between $175-200k, maybe a flipper could get the junker house next door for $100k, put $40k into it and put in on the market for $170k to make a quick profit. Now all of the other homes in the neighborhood just went down in value and may have to sell for even less (depending on how good the flip was). If the market doesn't significantly change in the next few years, the sale price of the flipped house and other houses in the neighborhood could affect future home sales based on comps.

To me the manager's job needs to be no more than a guy who is a great fit for the team he manages and also to not put players in positions to get hurt or lose confidence. Beyond that, its all on the players, their ability and what's between their ears. Yost is no "better" now than he was in '08. He has better pitchers and guys that aren't slumping when it matters most. The reason the Brewers haven't been closer to a WS the past 6 years is because of the players lack of talent and/or lack of clutch big-game performances. Not because a pitcher was pulled too early or too late or because player x was or wasn't pinch-hit for.

Not enough love for Jumanji in this thread. Very underrated movie IMO.

Yes, 1 hour photo was a good one and really showed his versatility. I believe he did back to back movies as a villain/non-comedic role with 1 hour photo and insomnia.

I am a bit bugged about how the media & some players reacted to the Paul George injury. First of all, let me say this: - I like Paul George, I think he's a great player. - I sincerely hope he makes a full recovery and returns to All-Star caliber level. That being said, the reaction from some players and media was so over-the-top, you'd think the man died or got into some accident that turned him into a vegetable. I get it - he man had a horrific compound fracture of his right leg. But after watching Jim Kelly this weekend, I am frustrated. Do people not realize: - He will walk again in a matter of a few months. - He will likely be able to run by the end of winter. - Less than 1 year ago, he signed an $ 80 million contract extension, and will have no problems affording the best medical treatment and rehab.

If u are squeamish, don't watch the Paul George video from tonight. Just brutal...

Agreed on everything you said. Chambers Bay will be a much more TV beautiful course IMO

No Altidore. Still need to find a way to get ay least a point.

I thought the season overall was great, but was very disappointed in how the events with Tyrion played out in the last episode. (Compared to the book) Spoilers******** I have been looking forward to his escape & the killings of Shae &Tywin all season. Jamie "freeing" him felt very rushed and they never addressed the confession by Jamie about Tyrions former wife, which was also a big part of the Tywin murder ("where ever whores go") Big let down for me. I am glad they didn't show the dragon flying over kings landing like they showed in the preview for the season...

Rickie needs a strap for that helmet... lol

I am trying to compile a list of golf courses/country clubs that have caddie programs in SE Wisconsin. My son currently is a caddie at Bluemound CC in Wauwatosa. We are looking to move out of the city, and I can't find a list of courses that have caddie programs. He is 13 (if that makes a difference) Does anyone know of other courses? I know of Westmoor and that's about it. Thanks in advance!

Construction. Specifically on Burleigh Rd in Wauwatosa. There has been a Westbound lane closed just east of Hwy 100 for months now. The backups are substantial, especially during rush hour. And the worst part is that nothing is actually under construction! It is making me so frustrated I want to call somebody to complain or at least ask when both lanes will be open. But I have no idea who to call...

But I say Daniel Craig would beat Matt Damon...

Bourne. Jason Bourne

+1

I think LePay a great job overall filling in for BA, but he has a hard time telling when a ball is going to be HR. His call starts off with a standard fly ball call, then after the ball already leaves the yard, he ramps up his excitement. But its almost too late

Wouldn't there be an option for a 7 day DL in this case?
