  1. Is it too late to add Randall Simon to the post-season roster?
  2. They may have found a (small crevice) in the Lidge armor. Or at least they made him throw 35 pitches. Hopefully that has some carryover affect if he comes into today's game. EDIT: Cuss filter adjustment... didn't even think of alternate meanings.
  3. That's just because he realizes his changeup is his best throw... it deceives batters into running slower.
  4. Who are you pulling for besides the Brewers? #1 - Whoever is playing against the Cubs... obvious #2 - Whoever is playing against the Red Sox... too much ESPN fixation #3 - Whoever is playing against the White Sox... too much focus on manager #4 - Whoever is playing against the Dodgers... can't reward Manny being Manny Brewers vs Rays would be awesome just to see the television stations whine about small market teams.
  5. However, you don't have to tell the family you have the TiVo set. Use the actual start time to leave the gathering, and the TiVo just as a back-up in case the traffic getting home is bad http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Our department decided to use flex time, bug out early today and go to the nearest sports bar for the game... what better team building activity!
  6. Considering it came down to one game and we are looking at some of the more obscure contributions, I'll throw a little love out there for Todd Coffey for chewing up some important innings when much of the bullpen was running on fumes a few weeks ago. PS - I'd really, really like to see Gabe Kapler available to pinch hit during the playoffs /end role player man crush
  7. IF I stay at work on Wednesday afternoon, but have blocked off my outlook calendar so nobody tries to set up a meeting for me during that time period. Or I may just go in at 6am, work through lunch and be in front of a TV by 2:05.
  8. I have exactly the bar you are looking for. It's called "Time Out Sports bar" and its in Manitowoc off the Hwy 42 exit I believe. I saw the Bucks beat the Spurs there at the buzzer when Andrew Bogut put a lobb in the bucket from Toni Kukoc. The bar went wild. It has TV's and projectors everywhere and it would be my best recommendation.Much thanks, we'll be giving it a shot (got the same answer from someone else today also, so must be a good choice). So if you see a group of a dozen guys that smell like fish (and old spice), stop by and introduce yourself... on second thought, you may want to stay away.
  9. The 3+ million fans, including the bandwagoners, that allowed MA to open up his checkbook for CC... who brought both MVP-caliber performance on the field and energy in the stands & dugout.
  10. A healthier Ryan Braun gives me reason to never give up, I could see Braun playing the role of Pujols and making Lidge re-live his Astros days... did that just put me in the cocky category? Get the job done in Philly, and we get to play the Cubs anyhow (or laugh at them for going out in the first round again)... OK, put me in the cocky category. I've been following the Brewers pre-1982, but I liked the join those youthful, exuberant & appreciateive players in their relaxed approach to enjoying this stretch of this season.
  11. Only feel bad in the respect that management let the problem linger too long before doing something about it, making the timing more akward so that it is fresh in everyone's mind... yet Braun, Sveum and others made some respectful comments acknowledging Yost in the post-game interviews. The reasons that finally got him terminated existed earlier this year, and existed at the end of last year, so dealing with it at either of those periods would have alleviate any uncomfortable feeling people are having now. And I have to agree with previous posters, that without Sveum's fresh approach to pitching staff management and dugout attitude, the Brewers would not have clinched a playoff spot yestersday.
  12. Worth it to me if Jack Z turns the two CC compensatory picks into the next Laporta & Brantley... and with his recent hot streak, no reason to doubt at least one of the two won't turn into something useful. And in addition to bonus playoff ticket sales, the excitement around CC's regular season presence sold a lot more regular season tickets... which can hopefully be used to extend some of the young talent, or fill holes from the free agent market.
  13. How about option C = Reschedule? If they are good customers/clients that really know you, they should understand.
  14. They usually start handing out awards about a week after the World Series, starting with 'lesser' ones like the manager & rookie, then move on those 'big' ones. So, I'd guess somewhere around mid-to-late November.
  15. Awesome pics. That one with McClung holding the wrestling belt makes think he could hold his own in the ring (at least the version we saw on Friday night). And I believe that picture of him carrying a teammate is actually Ray Durham... I saw that during the post game show and he was gesturing towards Ray's hammy, he was carrying him around to avoid any unnecessary risk http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif And while on the pro-wrestling theme, Corey Hart looks like he's trying to do his best Stone Cold Steve Austin impression waving a beer can in each hand over his head. Hopefully, we'll get more photos ops after each round of the playoffs!
  16. Help Needed - We've got a salmon fishing trip planned this coming weekend (ya, I know, why didn't we know the Brewers would be playing in October?). Can anyone familiar with the Manitowoc/Two Rivers area recommend a good sports bar for dozen guys to catch game 3? Thanks in Advance.
  17. Recliner couch in front of 50" plasma, 10 feet from the fridge.
  18. Thread also over in Off-Topic (?) - http://forum.brewerfan.net/viewtopic.php?t=15863 Pointing to this JS story - http://www.jsonline.com/w...te=9/28/2008&id=46778
  19. Hey Mets - the Brewers see your short-rest complete-game Cy Young Starter, and raise you one Ryan Braun!

  21. Is there really a rule against this, too? The Mets broadcasters just mentioned Miller Park fans watching the game http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
