  1. Not a personal attack, but your sarcasm is getting very old. My feelings echo mostly everyone else's here. I don't mind that we picked up a 5.00 ERA stop-gap. I'm just mad it's Claudio Vargas. He was my least favorite Brewer a few years back, and here he is again. This move makes me miss Matt Kinney.
  2. This list is garbage. However, I love that Rotoinfo updates it whenever one of the names is confirmed.
  3. Did Cro Cop and Dana kiss and make up? After Cro Cop's last UFC fight, Dana went nuts and started dropping F-bombs left and right because Cro Cop was considering fighting in Japan after signing a 1-match contract with the UFC. Apparently they had a verbal agreement for a long-term contract but didn't get it signed.
  4. I really don't think that everyone in the country is aware of the Erin Andrews incident, however Miss Andrews sure does. This call really makes it sound like she is full of herself. All over the news? Hardly. Michael Jackson's death was all over the news, not the Erin Andrews story. Dispatcher: And what's your name? Andrews: My name is Erin. My last name is Andrews. I'm all over the news right now. Dispatcher: I'm not familiar. Andrews: I'm the girl that was videotaped without her knowing, without her clothes on in the hotel. Dispatcher: Really?
  5. http://deadspin.com/5322107/why-your-stadium-sucks-miller-park I haven't seen this posted yet. If you are easily offended, don't read. Some of this is spot on accurate. Other parts of the story can be substituted with any stadium in the country. "You mean there are drunk people at a baseball game? Really?" I am most disappointed in the job Deadspin did with Wrigley Field. It could have been much better.
  6. Exactly, the UFC can't afford someone like Cheick Kongo getting a surprise win against Brock. Gabriel Gonzaga's KO of Mirko Cro Cop screwed the UFC's money matchup of Cro Cop vs. Captain America Randy Couture. They will hold Brock back and wait for the Fedor matchup.
  7. What scares me is that there are people on this board who want to trade for Jarrod Washburn, and then sign him to a 3-4 year deal worth 7 million a year. Washburn is 106-106 with a 4.03 ERA for his career. That's almost identical numbers as Jeff Suppan when we signed him a few years back.
  8. You aren't joking about the turn of events. Well, now the UFC won't have to blur the Affliction logo on the clothing of some of their fighters when they are showing classic bouts. So, is Strikeforce going to be able to outbid UFC for Fedor's service? Doubtful.
  9. Can we all agree that the "Do the Helen Keller and talk with your hips" song is the worst in history? Just a horrible, horrible song, possibly the worst of all time.
  10. My open letter to Richard Kessler: Mr. Kessler, First of all, I want you to know that I am a peaceful, non-violent, God fearing man. However, your commercials give me the urge to punch you in the neck. You come off as the most arrogant and condescending individual on the planet. Of course I would never act on my urges, but I would just like you to know that you bring out the worst in me. Sincerely, Tracy Thom Deerfield, WI --I'm still wondering if I should actually write this out and send it. Turn that into a radio commercial, Richard.
  11. I agree with you 100%. Bill Hall wants to stay in Milwaukee. He could be whining and complaining about his lack of playing time, but he is not.
  12. I want Lesnar to win, but I think he is going to make a dumb mistake and Mir will capitalize. I think people are underestimating Mir's striking ability. Remember, Mir stopped the much bigger Antonio Nogueira last year. I also hope Henderson destroys Bisping and shuts him up. I think GSP will win as well.
  13. We purchased our 1,450 square foot house in 2003 for $219,000. We got our initial home loan at 5.25%. The loan amount was for $180,000. In order to avoid PMI, we took out a Home Equity Line of Credit. Our HELOC rate at purchase was 6%. Now, it is at 8.25%. We cannot refinance our HELOC because of the housing market. The fair market value for our home 2 years ago was $250,000. Now it is $210,000. less than what we built it for. On a side note, don't build with Veridian Homes. We paid waaaaay too much for our small home.
  14. I heard that on Sunday. I never really pictured JJ as a country music guy. I was wondering if he lost a bet to Corey Hart.
  15. I won his Krynzel Snappers bobble. I already have one, but at that price I could not pass it up. I wish I had more $$ in my Paypal account because I would have taken a serious run at his older Don Money and Snappy bobbles. Those 2 are really hard to come by.
  16. Waiting is awesome. Dane Cook is actually tolerable in the movie, but that is probably due to his small role. Mitch rules.
  17. Yeah, he is a sworn law enforcement officer. He works for a sheriff's department in the southeastern portion of the state. However, I don't know if he works on the road or strictly in the jail. What disgusts me is that he brought up the fact that he is a law enforcement officer in the first place. What is that supposed to mean to Coghlan? He is trying to turn Coghlan into the bad guy for his "good for you" comment. I also agree with the others here. He is admitting to theft with his glove trick. That's a misdemeanor. If his supervisors knew about it, he would be suspended or possibly terminated.
  18. 1.) Wear flip-flops in the shower. Sorry to sound disgusting, but you never know what you may be stepping on. 2.) It's not the class, it's the professor. In some of your general courses, you may have a choice of a dozen different professors. Talk to some of the upperclassmen and find out who to take. Some professors can teach, some can't. 3.) Go to class. 4.) Make friends with the people on your floor who have cars. 5.) Another vote for hygiene. When I was a freshman, my roommate was a slob. I saw him brush his teeth maybe 3-4 times all year. I saw him come out of the shower maybe twice. He would brush his long hair, and then drop the hair on the floor. My room stunk. It would be -10 outside, but I would need to have the window open to air out the stink. 6.) Try to get another incoming freshman as a roommate. There is a reason why the sophomore or junior didn't already have a roommate lined up at the end of the previous school year.
  19. Companies who think their jingles are Top 40 hits. I go to Subway on a regular basis, and I have never seen anyone dancing on the tables singing the 5 dollar footlong song. Same with the Free Credit Report jingle. It's a freaking jingle.
  20. Ueck was trying to find out who the last Brewers position player was to pitch in a game. I had to head into work so I missed the answer. Who was it?
  21. My favorite chain restaurant burger is a Five Guys Burger with lots of onions, mushrooms, and A1 sauce. Hardee's mushroom and swiss is 2nd. For mom & pop places, my favorite is Wedl's in Jefferson. It's a little burger stand with probably the best sliders I have ever had. Great food.
  22. Connie and Fish. They bug me. A LOT! I usually listen to Bob & Brian in the morning. When they go to commercial break, I jump around on the radio dial. I'll tune to JJO next. If they are at commercial, I'll end up at Connie & Fish. Within 2 minutes of listening to them, I am angry and literally yelling at the radio. They are unfunny. They make me angry. Their callers make me angry. They usually ruin my morning. I don't understand why they are so popular, and why they got syndicated in Milwaukee.
  23. I am so trying to resist joining this and FarmTown. My wife used to make fun of me for having a MySpace page. Now, she sits on Facebook all the time planting her crops on FarmTown.
  24. My 6-year old loves, and I mean loves, lime flavored Tostitos. I don't think they are that bad. Ketchup flavored chips, now those are bad.
