    There is street parking around Kelly's Bleachers but it will be at a premium on Friday. It depends on how early you get there. I probably wouldn't park overnight as you will likely get a ticket and perhaps even towed.

    It's looking like next Wednesday's game against the Knicks will determine who makes the playoffs. The Bucks may be catching them at a good time too with the injuries the Knicks have combined with their tough schedule this next week.

    The link and the password worked for me still.

    I wouldn't have opposed them tanking either for a high draft pick but that ship has sailed as they won't be tanking and they won't end up with a high draft pick so I might as well root for them to keep on winning, even if it results in one and done.

    Palmerio already hit 500/3000 and won't be getting in. It is forgotten but even before the steroid stuff there was debate if he would ever get voted in.

    I really think they would have had a good crowd because people are starting to talk more about the Bucks but I think that will have to wait due to Wisconsin and Marquette playing the same day.

    The odds are on my side he won't get the 4th most hits ever after age 34, so yes it is nearly impossible. He is the 3rd fastest right handed hitter, however that is based on games played. If he started playing at 19 or something he would have a better chance at the HOF and 3,000 hits but he is 35 right now. At the end of the day your ultimate question of is he a hall of famer is very difficult to answer because we don't have complete information. I agree with you that if he continues to get 200 hits a year for the next five years he would be a hall of famer but nobody knows that and we are at the point now of debating what ifs.

    I knew I remember reading something about this recently and saw this from Joe Posnanski back in October: *Maybe this is bothering me because the Michael Young deification is driving me up the wall. Young has been a good player in his career. Not a great player. Not close to a great player. But a good player. A solid player. He won a batting title. He’s a .300 hitter who doesn’t walk, has played several positions, but none of them especially well, he has shown a little pop in large part because he has had the good fortune to play his entire career in a great hitters’ ballpark. He gets a lot of points for leadership, and he might indeed be a Patton-like leader in the clubhouse, but I also know that Young has twice complained loudly and publicly when the Rangers moved his position. His career WAR, at this moment anyway, is almost exactly the same as Dave Henderson’s and Melvin Mora’s. His career 106 OPS+ is the same as those of Don Money and Bill Doran and David DeJesus. All of this seems to place him firmly in the “good but not close to great” column.

    As a hitter he kind of reminds me of Steve Garvey, a guy that will get votes but never seriously considered. I would say his chances of getting 3,000 hits are slim to none. Saying he doesn't belong in the HOF isn't hating it is just being realistic.

    Just posting to say how much I love this winter weather right now.

    Guaranteeing $10 million to Escobar seems a little high to me but I guess the Royals feel he has decent potential.

    While looking at the stats for these players I was surprised to see that Kwame Brown is already 30. It didn't seem that long ago that he was drafted as a high schooler, for a draft bust he has sure stuck around a long time.

    I think this will be quite a bit worse than last year because even if you want to get off at State Fair it is quite a chore to get there but like the previous poster mentioned there is little choice in when to do this, at least it started before the season started and it will be done by the end of June.

    I've been to a number of Twins games as well with no issue. To me it is hard to believe the Vikings and Twins fans are the same group of people.

    That priceless stuff is pretty played out, I can't see you selling too many of those.

    Yahoo sports has named the guy.http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=jp-passan_ryan_braun_drug_test_appeal_manfred_022412

    Byrnes is a tool, he also said a little birdie told him that Braun's team leaked the initial suspension.

    According to his Twitter feed Fielder was going to sign with Seattle, so like others noted nobody knows anything at this point.
  19. Outlander
    Yes, they closed on the 4th which was a Monday. They are closed Monday the 2nd this year.

    You are mixing up a couple of different seasons. The assist streak was at the end of his rookie season as mentioned and then he had a nice scoring run plus a 40 point game at the mid point of his second year. However, he was never able to maintain the level over a decent stretch of time and his season numbers for both years are pretty average.
  21. Outlander
    The last five games of Sessions rookie year he averaged 15 assists a game, however the Bucks were really bad by then and the Brewers already started playing so not even people in Milwaukee cared.
  22. Outlander
    That is rather interesting, even if there are some people down on him it is probably better than people being apathetic toward him. If he turns to corner I think he could quickly become a fan favorite.

    Good to see this is finally happening, surprised you were able to find this little nugget of information among the listing of various mature stations being added, removed, moved.

    Went to a BP this morning for gas and received my first stamp toward free brewers tickets this spring/summer.

    I was just going to post something similar to this, Corey Hart version 2.0. Gamel will be a good player and make a couple of all star games but will always have his doubters.
