  1. It's my birthday on Thursday. I have no real plans because my kids have school and activities, BUT... ...what a grand birthday it will be! Brewers Opening Day My alma mater plays in the Sweet 16 Bucks play, get closer to home court throughout the playoffs My oldest has her middle school Olympics What a day.
  2. My friend got me a Brewers schedule magnet before last season. He got me another one for this season.
  3. Kratz needs to be invited back to every Brewers reunion, event, etc., until the end of time.
  4. Hader, Knebel, Jeffress, Kimbrel is better. I want that.
  5. How about Counsell manages a full 9 innings? Rather see him play matchups for a complete game rather than assign a rigid role for one player late in 25-30% of the games. So you don't think how he handled a, shall we say, unique pitching staff as well as how he juggled the infield playing time wasn't him managing a full nine innings?
  6. Aw, don't sell yourself short.
  7. My kid's little league team last year was the Brewers. In Atlanta. The official, league-issued cap was the current logo, but the gear the coaches bought was all retro. None of them were Brewers fans, either.
  8. That would be worse than the Motre Bame logo. If they ever go back to the ball and glove for good, just go back to the ball and glove. Changing it in any way (aside from the color shades) would be a huge mistake. "Hey everyone, we LOVE the classic logo, but since we want to do our own thing, have our "own identity," we're going to make some pointless change that will make everyone wonder what we were thinking every time they see our logo!" The ball and glove is one of the best - arguably THE best - logo in the history of American sports. I'm not saying this because I'm a Brewers fan. It's the perfect combination of creative, simple, and identifiable. There is absolutely no mistaking what team it represents. I would guess that at least 90 percent of sports fans, if you asked them about the logo, would respond that it's fantastic. There was absolutely no reason to change it way back when. Changing the logo was simply change for the sake of change and was a colossal marketing flub. EDIT: (I also kind of like that it's a "happy" logo - enough of this "let's look tough" try-hard crap) EDIT 2: To an earlier post...changing "kits" (or "outfits") every season? Wow, is that a bad idea.
  9. It was incredibly lame. No insights, boring interviews (except for when Braun was razzing Yelich from off-camera and Yelich came back with something like "Braun still thinks it's 2011").
  10. I would drop Arenado below Yelich (Coors effect) and lukewarm take: Harper is overrated.
  11. That would certainly be something if the NL Central was as competitive as PECOTA thinks it will be.
  12. Good. I always felt "Disabled List" was a stupid term.
  13. 1. Dumb 2. Fine 3. Cool 4. Fine 5. What 6. Stupid as hell 7. No 8. Ok, don't care
  14. There's a reason most free agents are free agents at this point. It's not because they are good.
  15. Hey, if you're not failing on your challenges, you're not trying, right?
  16. I heard $50 million thrown out yesterday, seems light to me for 15 years.. Does his name change back to "David Stearns" after 15 years or does it become a generic "Milwaukee Brewers POBO" if nobody else steps up with naming rights money?
  17. I'm actually a little surprised that Rivera was unanimous (not that I care at all). I kind of figure that since there were so many players on the ballot who people believed were deserving, that someone would take a vote from Rivera and give it to someone else because they knew Rivera would get plenty of votes.
  18. 70 HR's wasn't entertaining? Not in a funny way like Perry was. Plus: a) Perry basically looked like an old man his entire career b) he wore the GOAT old-timers game jersey
  19. I'm cool with Gaylord Perry because he was so in your face with the spitter/cheating that it was entertaining.
  20. Damn, dude, buy some Nicorette or something.
  21. I'll be sure to get tickets behind the backstop so I can chat with him a few times per game.
