I've been frustrated with MVS a lot over the last few years, but now it's flipped, I'm rooting for him. Both because of the death threats and the way the coach just had to stand up for him. I'm hoping for more positive plays as the season goes on.

Dekker is playing in Turkey this season. Their 2020-21 season has already starter. Dekker is the 10th leading scorer. https://basketball.realgm.com/international/league/7/Turkish-BSL/stats I thought about him as well! I went to see where he was and saw he tweeted when someone asked about coming back now to play for the bucks. He said "I'd play for free " I honestly don't know how he's playing and what his holes are, but it would make for a great story and a WI kid to cheer for on the Bucks.

We stood toe to toe with the beast last night, and held our own.....even with a terrible start to the game. Let's go get em tonight Woody!

Just saw TJ Watt's pass rush success rate is almost 30%...... I'm feeling very frustrated all over again, that we didn't draft him. Sorry for bringing this up!

Yep, as others have stated, my thought was, next year. I'm not putting much in to any stats for players this year because of the pandemic. Add the fact he's coming off injury, it's not surprising he's struggled.

Well played!

Can they call the company and explain the situation, see if they'd allow them to login as much as they want? Otherwise I love YoutubeTV. You can try it free for a month. I was super worried about it not being enough of what I want, compared to DTV. When I did the free trial, I only used YTV and found I was not missing anything at all (until NFL comes back and I don't have Sunday Ticket, but I think I will split the cost with a friend and use their online login). With YTV you can have multiple logins going at once and can use it wherever.

Well you can all thank me. I looked at my wife right as the 9th inning started and said, I think I need to jinx this no hitter. So I sent a text to my friend who's a twins fan, saying "you think he'll get this no no?" Not two seconds later it was broken and he went off on me for my poor baseball etiquette. It was pretty funny. Fun game but terrible to lose that one.

Me too! There is a lot of love here though, so I went with it. Congrats on the internet! Also, I guess, congrats on the Masters.

Well that was a fun weekend of baseball!

Yelich being Yelich would be a big boost right now too, obviously. Yes I'm excited to see Urias and see what Garcia is made of. Hoping for some positive vibes and some wins to get a little momentum going.

Let me first say, I'm thankful to have Baseball back, and our record is secondary to being able to watch the Brewers. In a shortened season, it's a bummer to have so much turnover on the roster from last year. I find, it makes it harder to really get to know this new group of players. Harder to cheer them on. I also think this roster was really built to handle a long season, with all its flexibility. We would have gotten to know them and seen their strengths more (hopefully), learned to love the new guys. Now that we are in a sprint, instead of marathon, I feel we are going to be in a tough spot. I'm not going to complain about it personally. I'm just looking forward watching them and hoping they can get a little winning streak going to build momentum.

100%! It's been really fun to watch that with our family.

I would agree with this. Probably would be good to have a separate one for each sim.

Eye black, I think I might get in to this.

I can't debate some of these catches I can't remember, but I will have to look them up. The one that comes to mind right away was Cain robbing the, what would have been game tying home run in the bottom of the 7th, at Coors. We still ended up losing the game, so I don't know if it makes it as big, but at the time it 2-0 Brewers and we were in the thick of a playoff chase. That felt huge when it happened! I remember going crazy.

I think Braun would have been the next Yount, if the HGH thing didn't happen. He was becoming the baseball version of the face of our state. Hanging with Rodgers and bringing the fan bases together. I'm not an expert on this but would Braun be a Hall of Famer if he didn't get caught with HGH? I don't know, but I think he was borderline? Not here to debate that, just to say, I think he was going to be the next great, and now he will always be looked at differently.

This. In regards to the extension, I don’t understand how anyone can be any amount of upset about this. Yelich just put up back-to-back MVP worthy seasons, is on track to be a future hall of famer, and is the type of player/body type that can produce into his mid-30s. 22 will likely end up in the rafters in Milwaukee forever. There is legitimately no one in baseball not named Trout that is more worthy of a long-term deal, and every other team in baseball is jealous of the Brewers for inking this deal right now. When you factor dollars in as well, as a Brewers fan which deal would you take for our small-market team from this list? Rendon 7 years/$245m ($35m AAV) Harper 13 years/$330m ($25mAAV) Machado 10 years/$300m ($30m AAV) Arenado 8 years/$260m ($32.5m AAV) Trout 12 years/$426m ($35.5 AAV) Yelich 9 years/$215 m ($23.8 AAV) Even with our obvious bias aside, when factoring in length of deal, dollars (factoring in team resources), and production - the answer is Yelich, every time. Yes every long term deal has risk, and sure this could end up being an albatross by the end of the deal. But this is a no-brainer and a great day for Brewers fans. Enjoy it. (Also I’ll enjoy it even more when I hear that it is official...) I think both of you guys nailed it! Stearns doesn't just sign guys because they are good, or have been good, it has to make sense and fit what he thinks is their value. If he thinks he could get the same or better production for less money, he's going to do it. And what I love is he thinks outside the box. Thanks for breaking down the numbers like that, it really does show the value in the contract. I think we also have to look at this signing as more than just what he is bringing to the field. His presence for the organization is worth a ton. He's going to be the face of the team for years to come. He's on track to be a future hall of famer, and he's going to be doing that as a Brewer. By all accounts he's a great guy and is very down to earth. The whole state of WI will have pride in him being on our team. I know it's hard to compute, but he's going to make the Brewers a lot of money, if he continues to play to his ability.

It made a lot of sense. I wonder how much that kneecap injury played into his thought process. He got lucky in that he could make a full recovery, that he wasn't losing a year to recover from the more serious injuries that could easily have affected his baserunning and defensive performance. I brought this up at some point last year, that maybe this is a good time to look in to a contract extension. Maybe Yelich would take a discount to lock up a long term, life changing contract. Young talented players probably feel invincible when everything is going good. You have an injury and then you start to realize that you aren't, and these things can happen. I think it's a win for both sides. I hope he stays healthy and this contract ends up being great for the franchise.

Thanks for the input! Wouldn't be much wondering, at most, grab a quick bite to eat right next to the stadium. Which I guess would be my next question, any suggestions for something very close and kid friendly, sports bar type place?

Dang 11k! That's impressive. I've been doing ok on college hoops but haven't gotten any of my parlays to hit, which is then eating away at my profits. I know I shouldn't be doing them, but it's too hard not to!

Hey, I wanted to reach out to all the experts here and see if you had any suggestions for going to a Bucks game with the family. I haven't been to one in a long time, so obviously a lot has changed. It's the Golden State game coming up in a few weeks, Saturday night. The one worry I potentially have is it's St Patty's weekend, so I'm guessing there might be a celebration, and a lot of drunk people roaming around. We live in Minneapolis so we are used to being in a city, but wanted to see if that weekend should be avoided (like going down to St Paul on St Patty's Day, would not be a great move with kids probably). Thanks in advance!
