  1. I don't like it when players hotdog it, admire their handiwork forever, etc., but I really don't care about this one by Braun. After the infamous homer last year, Braun got this label that he is an ultra-cocky showboat. I just don't see it. If he strolled down to first (Ken Griffey, Jr.) every time he hit one, sure, I wouldn't like it, but he doesn't do that. If a guy stares at a homer every once in a while, fine. Whatever. Hall has pretty much always done it, which I don't like. But what I don't like about it isn't so much the cockiness, as he doesn't really go overboard with it, it's that, at least in the past, it has seemed like Hall admires shots he THINKS will be out, even if they hit the wall.
  2. How disappointing is it going to be if we lose a game to Houston? http://img397.imageshack.us/img397/4709/rachelgp6.jpg
  3. I would LOVE to see a YouTube compilation of the top 10 most egregious (or most awesome) HR watching moments ever. I think they'd all consist of A-Ram, Man-Ram, and Mel Hall.
  4. And our leads are never quite safe. But that just makes it more exciting, right? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  5. I'm not sure how much more you want out of him. A shutout? He allowed six baserunners in seven innings. Three runs. One run scored on an error. The other scored as a result of Sheets not holding the runner at first (Sheets' fault, yes, but not a factor of him not pitching well).
  6. Yes. Christ, enough of this crap. He hasn't been playing well the last few games. So what? Sometimes guys go through slumps. It's disappointing that he made an error and has been struggling at the plate, but I bet we could find one, two, and three week stretches when other good players don't do so well, too (Aramis Ramirez to the white courtesy phone, Aramis Ramirez to the white courtesy phone).
  7. I just recently tuned in to the game, but jhart's cousin has a really tight strike zone. The first pitch to Glaus here was down the middle according to Gameday and called a ball.
  8. It's just a matter of time tonight before we score a few, methinks.

  10. Or not. That was one of the saddest pinch hitting performances I've ever seen. Let's see, he threw you two curve balls that you missed by more than a foot. Then he throws you a third which you miss so bad that you end up on your knees.
  11. 2 on, 2 out in the 9th. How about a bloop and a blast?

  14. Jenkins just jacked the hell out of one. Phillies/Mets 2-2 in the 1st.

  16. He's always spitting, considering he chews tobacco.
  17. No. Right now, they just list the WS, NL, and AL pennant odds: http://sports.bodoglife.com/sports-betting/baseball-futures.jsp
  18. Because Vegas was looking to make some extra dollars off of a big name. What a sucker bet. I like those odds though. Notice how the Twins are 25 to 1 and the Brewers are 12 to 1 to win the WS. Vegas also thinks the Twins are getting lucky. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif That's probably not the case. It's most likely because the AL is considered tougher than the NL and thus the Twins' road to win the WS will be more difficult than the Brewers'. They have to compete directly with the White Sox and Tigers in their division and would have to compete with one of those teams plus two of the Rays, Red Sox, and Yankees to grab the WC. Factor in the Angels in the playoffs, and that's a more formidable challenge than the mix of the Dbacks, Dodgers, Cubs, Cards, Mets, Phils, and Marlins in the NL.
  19. I keep telling myself that CC and Sheets aren't going to win all the rest of their games, so I am preparing myself for a letdown at some point. Let's just keep postponing that, though.
  20. Crap. I'm going to be in Costa Rica for a week and didn't even think about the fact that we'd be playing the Cubs while I'm there. And possibly without internet access.

  22. Typical Bill Hall http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif
  23. Obviously, I want us to win this game, but regardless of the outcome, I am very happy with the effort. Lohse was dealing (helped by a generous low-outside zone by the ump) and Suppan struggled early, but everyone just kept sticking to it and got back into the game. Very nice.
