    Does anyone have an extra of the #1 Brat racing sausage magnets that were given away in the Journal-Sentinel last season? I have doubles of all the other sausages, but no Brat. I can only find sets on ebay and I don't need the whole set over again. Thanks

    me too, actually!

    A lot of the stuff I found by googling for whatever specific piece I wanted - it brought up all kinds of sporting goods stores I've never heard of. I've also found a lot of off-the-wall, never seen it before stuff at Marshall's.

    Sports Night. It's not in syndication anywhere, yet apparently Everyone just Loves Raymond... Sonic Drive-In I know I can't be the only one who thinks it's criminal that Sonic advertises in Wisconsin when there isn't one anywhere near here. I have Sports Night on DVD and watch it at least once every couple of months.

    I've never heard this be called Tiger Meat. There's a proper German name for it, but I've also heard them called Cannibal Sandwiches.

    Is it just me, or has this been more of a problem this year than last? I was at the games on Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday (where I stopped keeping score after 6 innings) and I believe I counted 7 or 8 foul outs. This seems ridiculous to me, but I guess I don't know for sure. Should we be concerned about this? It seems like such an incredible waste of an AB.

    I've been to three games and they've played it at each of them - my guess is that's it's a new fixture. Maybe those who didn't see it weren't there early enough?

    In general I agree with this statement, but as it specifically applies to last night, no one else but Bush can be blamed for walking 6 guys. He just does not seem to have the stuff to be able to make a quality start. He's fine for about 4 innings, then it seems to slide downhill. We scored 4 runs last night. We were down 2-1 and came back and gave him the lead. Cappy was missing run support, but I don't think you can say that here. I agree with the principle of what you're saying, but this isn't a new problem for Bush.

    Dishes. Absolutely, unequivocally, dishes. I can't stand the yucky water. If I had a dishwasher, maybe I could handle it. But I have bargained to never had to do dishes. Also, picking up dog poop!

    Anyone actually getting anything in the chat? I'm getting a *silent* screen - it says I'm logged in, but no chat to be seen.

    I thought I read in the thread about Yost on Rome's radio show yesterday that Yost said something about the three young arms in the starting rotation. He gave the answer without actually having to give an answer. I don't think there's any doubt that it's going to be Sheets, Suppan, Parra, Gallardo and Villanueva.

    The highest the WMLW gun had him was 94. For example, when he struck out Freel with the high heat. His first couple pitches and then to Keppinger said his fastball was hitting only 88-89. Thanks. I thought the 99 was a little generous!

    I don't. I think they're giving him rest. There's no point in putting him out there cold and running the risk of aggravating the muscle. It's a strained muscle. There's nothing you can do for it but give it rest. If that game had gone on further and we needed him, I think we could have seen Tony last night. I couldn't find him on the bench in the extra innings - I think they already had him out in the hall warming up, just in case. All we needed was the bunt, so there's no point in risking Tony at that point.

    In section 223/224 last night there was a What Can Braun do for you shirt. Was this a BF.net'er?

    I've been rejected/kicked off when my brother was already on it. The slingbox, however, is the greatest invention. We bought it for my brother who lives in Memphis specifically for Brewer, Packer and Badger games.

    I think they're supposed to be called the Milwaukee Iron. The league the Bonecrushers are/were in is like the third step down the line. This new team is supposed to be the second step down. The Bonecrusher guys aren't and never were professionals. They got paid like $100/week. This new team is supposedly going to have better talent.

    Have you tried cutting back to just one pill? I use PM on occasion and often I feel more bajiggiddy than I did before I take them, almost like I took a NoDoz instead of a sleeping pill. I think there's a sub-conscious thing that happens in terms of over-thinking the whole thing and worrying about falling asleep and worrying about over-sleeping and just thinking about the whole thing too much. Your mind's working too much.

    I said the absolute same thing to the boyfriend. I feel like every day my crush on Kendall grows a little more. He threw another guy out, had more clutch hitting and had the back-up play. He's so far in front on what we're used to that every day is just like a little extra bonus icing on the cake.

    That outing was so disappointing because he looked SO good and no one will remember that, they'll just talk about the HR. I was at the game, so maybe someone who had on WMLW or GameDay could verify, but the MP gun picked up at least two pitches at 99 mph. I don't think anyone thought he had that kind of velocity left. I'm actually in the camp that sincerely wants to see Gagne do well (and not just for the reason that I want our team to do well). I was so upset last night because I knew that it would just feed the anti-Eric's out there. After the Fukudome HR, everyone on the Brewers pointed out that Fuku was hitting completely different in season than he was in spring training, which is why every single one of our pitchers had difficulty with him - basically all the scouting we had on him went out the window. Every pitcher in that game gave up hits to Fuku, Gagne's just happened to go yard. The problem is that we can explain that one away and call this one a fluke HR, but it's going to start sounding like excuses real soon.

    I guess I don't understand being lax on this for a professional athlete. I mean, they take care of literally every other part of their body with as much attention to detail as possible. I'm not sure why eyesight is any different.

    I'm trying not to give too much info or myself away, but I have to say that the team is very, very bad. They don't have the talent to win. The whole operation looks to be done on the cheap, from what I can figure. It has felt like someone had the idea for Gilbert and the team and went with it, but didn't have ANY clue about what it took to actually accomplish the goal on a day-to-day basis. They're severely understaffed front-office wise. It has also always seemed like they focused on the wrong details. There's a dance team/cheerleaders. There's pyrotechnics. There's an event production company involved/sponsoring. Every game it was announced that there was post-game at Turner's and then after that a party at a club. But there's no product on the field. I think they were way over their heads and Gilbert, et al were sick of being embarrassed.

    When you realize that all your decent information on the Crew comes from this place and you begin at least 4 conversations in the game "On Brewerfan..."

    There's just something about her name and the way it sounds that grates on my nerves. I feel bad, because she knows her stuff, does her best to debunk the airheaded sideline reporter image and actually responded to emails. She seems cool, but man her name bugs me.

    I think Sunday was my "perfect baseball day." The weather was beautiful, the tailgating was fun, there was an All-fan and Benny was on his mark. That game was just plain fun. You'd never look at a 7-0 box score and think so, but between Ben's performance and the way the runs were spread out and the defense. Seriously, a perfect day.
