  1. I wouldn't get too giddy. Worked just fine last night.
  2. This game is annoying me more than the ones we just played against Colorado.
  3. I'd like to thank Holliday for swinging on a 3-0 pitch and completely killing any possibility of a rally. Thank you. No, really. Thank you.
  4. He's Back: Ankiel returns to Cardinals tonight (added text to link --1992) (consolidated tags --1992)
  5. Are the Brewers batters hitting the ball as hard as it looks on Gameday? It placed both Hall's and Mench's fly outs on the bingo side of the outfield wall.
  6. Well, it can't be a good sign when Yo can't even get out of the first unscathed. At the same time, I am greatly encouraged by the fact that the Brewers didn't take the lead in the first inning.
  7. I can't believe there has been so much debate and riled up emotions about a this. The bottom line is this: 1) Imaji has an avatar that depicts a variation of the Dallas Cowboys helmet with the word "Jewboys" underneath. 2) Said avatar was deemed offensive to Jews, as it generally should be (I am Jewish, by the way). 3) Upon further review, it is found that Imaji is himself Jewish and uses the "Jewboys" name/logo to tout his faith, while at the same time having some fun with it. 4) Therefore, in the way it is being used, the avatar is perfectly fine. I don't see the problem here. I also don't see why Imaji flew off the handle when it should have been entirely obvious that his avatar was originally banned not because BF.net hates Jews, but because management found it offensive towards Jews. In the end, this is all just the result of miscommunication on both sides. BF.net didn't tell Imaji why the avatar was inappropriate and Imaji didn't tell BF.net what it was all about. EDIT: I find it extremely confusing that Imaji doesn't understand that the word "Jew" in and of itself is not a slur, but it becomes a slur depending on how it is used, including context and tone.
  8. Seriously, I think you are being way too harsh here. Bonds gave the Giants the lead with the homer, so it's not like he didn't help his team (he had a hit earlier, too). Plus, they typically pull him for a defensive replacement late in games, anyway. They had a little more than half the game left? I am not being harsh here in this instance. True. For some reason I thought it was the 7th. At any rate, I have no problem with him leaving the game after one last curtain call. Not that it really will accomplish it, but taking him out will hopefully bring some attention back to the game itself. Plus, the manager may have figured his emotions may take his head out of the game (yeah, I know, he should be a professional, etc., but he did almost break down when thanking his father). Bottom line is that I don't like Barry Bonds, but he just broke the single greatest record in all of sports. I have no problem with his celebration, his family's celebration, the game being paused, his speech, what have you. It is an exciting moment and there was nothing inappropriate about anything that took place.

  10. And now we can turn our attention to Ryan Braun's quest for the record.
  11. Yeah, you're being too harsh. I don't like Bonds, but come on. This was an exciting moment for him and his family. By the way, his teammates didn't give him much of a congrats. The hugs and pats on the back seemed really half-hearted.
  12. Hart Hardy Braun Prince Hall Jenkins Bad Leg Counsell Capuano Wins?
  13. Byrnes just signed an extension with Arizona today. Signing Andruw Jones would be a horrible idea. We don't need a power hitter who strikes out all the time. Actually, I guess he would be a better choice than Dunn, even if Dunn is a little cheaper, since Jones can actually field his position. At any rate, both would be a big waste of money.
  14. Byrnes was just signed to an extension:
  15. Sweet. Lidge is going to blow it against Chicago. Kendall singled to lead off the 10th.
  16. Everybody calm down at look at the bright side. We didn't jump out to a big first inning lead.
  17. Piazza would be of no interest to the Brewers. He's a terrible defensive catcher and we already have a first baseman. As there is no DH in the NL, there would be no reason to trade for him.
  18. Off the top of my head, I know homers is McGwire with 49 in 1987. Don't know about RBI.
  19. Interesting. He, too, is jewish. That, combined with his hitting ability, led me to my conclusion.
  20. I think Ryan Braun might be the second coming of Christ.
  21. The reverse mojo was greatly appreciated.
  22. I know. Such crap. Why does he always have to suck so bad? http://static.yuku.com/v2//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif
  23. A-Rod hits his 500th homer. Barry Bonds hits his 755th homer. Craig Counsell gets intentionally walked. Milestone weekend.
