    Well keep us out of state weather heads posted on what's going on up there. Heard there were some school cancellations in western WI.

    Bottom line, when there is that much fame and money on the line people will do anything to get it. Doesn't matter what sport, people will try to find any edge they can. I used to get mad about people cheating but now it is what it is. I just hope Braun doesn't get suspended, but man he's got a lot of smoke around him.

    That's nice to hear. I'm looking forward to seeing this kid play more this year!

    I made a fish fry that day too! I had some bluegill fillets in the freezer and used the family recipe. Really hit the spot! I only have one more ziplock of fillets left from WI so I will need to get back soon to get a few more. Glad your fry turned out well!

    Oh another thing, we've had some pretty good luck with Priceline for our hotels. Might be worth a shot!

    I'm just nervous about this WI team not being athletic enough to be a higher seed. They have played over there head a bit this year IMO, but maybe they can keep that up. Bo needs to give Dekker a longer leash, let him hoist and maybe we can make a little run! I think PG play will be our demise.

    Man I'm having a hard time trying to make a prediction because there is so much up in the air with the rotation. I feel a safe call is 85 wins. I can see that swinging either way by 5. I guess I take 85 wins because it's in the middle for me. I'm not sure that gets us anywhere but hopefully it keeps baseball interesting until late in the year.

    How has the snowfall been in Northern WI this year? Curious what the totals are, around the average or below?
  9. RobDeer 45
    Ya I totally agree. That could really take the site to another level. I wish I knew even just a little bit about web design, but I do not. This is such a great site, just needs a new front door with some bells and whistles.

    Just nice hearing these guys on the computer/phone again! Happy late B-day Hawing, hope it was a good one!
  11. RobDeer 45
    Wow that's awesome! Even if he just becomes a backup at some point, I like having him on our squad!

    I think this is a tough one because NY can be so different for each person. I've been there several times and each time has been so different. I think when you go the first time it's good to be a tourist, see the things you really want to see. I would suggest staying on Manhattan island and maybe spending less on tourist traps. For instance, you can go to time square and just walk around. You can do the same in Central Park and visit some of the famous department stores that border the south end. You can head down to the southern end and check out World Trade Center area, financial district, Battery Park (you can see the statue of liberty from there, it's a ways out, but you can see it) all with in a few blocks of each other. Chelsea Market is another good free thing to check out. From there you can head southeast and walk through meat packing district, Greewich Village (cool homes), SoHo (for the shops), Little Italy, China Town and wherever you want to go from there. That's a nice little walk. If you are active, I suggest just walking in certain areas. My wife and I would just walk around and get lost in Manhattan. It's safe just about everywhere so you really don't have to worry, even at night. So like I said, I'd rather be in the mix and pay a little extra just so that I can get out and walk. Besides paying for food, you could spend a ton of time there with out having to spend a penny for entertainment! I'm not expert, but if you have any questions let me know. My brother lives in the Lower East Side, so I can always ask him anything too!

    Ok, so that was my friend's argument for Estrada being able to be almost as good of a starter as Yo. That he's not a soft tosser. Like I said, I know Yo can crank up the extra but on average they aren't too far off. I'm still very cautious about saying he can be a two, but it was a compelling argument.
  14. RobDeer 45
    Ya I believe that it's now or never for Peralta. I do kind of agree there is a lot riding on him, but I'd say there is a lot riding on all the young guys. We need one of them to step up to be a #2 or #3 at least. I think Estrada is good, but I just don't know how good. My friend and I discussed him and he's very high on him. Can you verify this, what is Yo's avg fb range compared to Estrada's? I'm not talking high end, because I know Yo can crank it up and hit higher when needed, but I'm just talking about the average fastballs they throw. My buddy said they are very similar but Estrada just didn't have the high end ability.

    You may want to look in to this. I believe if you buy it on your computer you can download the free app and sign in on your phone and it will recognize the subscription. But read about it, could be two seperatw things. It is combined for the phone with MLB.tv
  16. RobDeer 45
    Well said. And not to mention that we should be trading guys like Weeks, Yo in their last years (or going in to) along with the potential of Hart/Gomez this year. That will give us some young talent back hopefully to help with the lack of position players in our system. I'm not too worried. We may have some down time but hopefully not too much. We've had a pretty good run here with some chances to get lucky in the playoffs. Just didn't work out.
  17. RobDeer 45
    Boy Monty.... I don't think Hart gets close to what ZG got in a trade. I could be wrong on that but I really don't think Hart gets a ton back in return. If someone was going to offer us 3 prospects, including one that is highly rated, I'm sure DM would take it, but I doubt there were any clubs looking to do that last year. I think DM will look to move those two this year but I don't think you try to trade them until their final year of a contract/control. It's also easy to look back and say "that was the perfect time," prior to an injury. That's stuff you can't predict.
  18. RobDeer 45
    I agree. I think he's the type of guy that Milwaukee would really enjoy. I heard an NBA expert talking prior to the trade that they'd love to have him on their squad and that he's a great piece to the puzzle.

    I don't watch the bucks, being out of state these days, but keep an eye on them a bit. This makes 0 sense. I would really like JJ on the team but I doubt he sticks around next year. Smith would have been interesting and made me excited despite the fact that people say he's not a great guy to build around. He gets his numbers but he's not a guy to spend a lot on (not sure if he's not a good team player or people don't like him or what). They need to blow this team up. Edit (I think I was out of it while writing this, Meant smith, not Harris and meant I "would" like JJ instead of wouldn't.) Sorry about that! I also now think it made some sense, but I still think it will be really hard to sign JJ.

    Ya we would need Excel for sure. We have some pretty in depth spread sheets on there. I agree there is no replacement for that. I was thinking I could just get Excel and then do Pages. I think Excel is $50.

    Kalle8 - DANG!! Do they have a website? I'd love to check it out. We stayed at one in San G. Ya the stadium itself looked off. I was assuming it was a 2nd/3rd tier type team. I was surprised that to find out it was for a team in the Main League! I just liked how it was down in the valley like it is. Also, I don't think you answered but who is your football/soccer team in Italy?
  22. RobDeer 45
    Who's your team? I got to see the stadium in Siena when I was in Italy this fall. Kind of a cool setting but heard they are getting a new stadium.
  23. RobDeer 45
    Ya I was going to say hold out until closer to the day. I've never done this at Miller Park, but I'd imagine that you could scoop up some tickets right before the game if you just go there (from people who have extras).
  24. RobDeer 45
    Super bummed about this. My wife and I finally updated our macbook pro (from 2008?) and got more RAM and then Mountain Lion. When I got it up and running I found out that "power pc applications are no longer supported." So what are our options for having excel and word back on the mac? We use excel a ton so it's a must. Do we just have to buck up and buy office for mac? Everything is running great but kind of bummed airplay is not compatible with older macs! Dumb.

    Does anyone know about At Bat 2013 and possibly charging a monthly fee? Is that only if you don't buy mlb.tv or is it along with that purchase? Also, if you have an iPad and iPhone, do you only need to purchase it once?
