Aguilar is looking like a nice steal by DS. Still early in the season but I am really liking Aguilar. -

2017 Green Bay Packers draft preview and predictions
nate82 replied to LouisEly's topic in Off-Topic Forum
Maybe the Packers will draft a new girlfriend for Rodgers in the first round? -
I understand there are some legit circumstances for this to occur, but I consider these fans to be on some sort of second tier. Like how Tom Hagan can become the Don's consigliere, but he cannot become a made man because he is not Italian. If I see you wearing a Brewers hat in the winter I expect you to be able to talk about the Packers. I feel like it is not completely valid for you to use the term "we" to describe you and other Brewers fans because you are not really in our inner circle if you have other non-WI allegiances. This does not apply to any out of state college if you went there. Except most of the time I know more about the Packers than some Packer fans do. Just because I like the Bears doesn't mean I can't talk about the Packers they are in the same division and a rival. I usually get a surprised look when I start talking about the Packers and all of their flaws and other issues they have. Plus I have this weird superstition that all of my team names start with a B. Brewers, Bucks, Bears, Blackhawks, and Badgers I know weird right? I try not to use we when talking about other fans. There is very little that I have in common with another Brewer fan so we doesn't really fit and I really can't understand this you can't be a true Brewers fan or insert any other team here unless you are a fan of all the teams in that state. What if there were two NFL franchises in WI would you be kicked out of the inner circle because you only liked one of the teams? Are you out of the inner circle if you only like Marquette over Wisconsin?

The only teams I have gear for are my teams: MLB - Milwaukee Brewers NFL - Chicago Bears Minors - Potomac Nationals (local), but will buy Brewers gear as well Yes, I know I probably root for the LEAST favorite football team here. But my dad was military, we moved around, so my baseball team was the Brewers, and football ended up being Da Bears. I know a lot of Bears and Brewers fans and a lot of Packers and Cubs fans. For the Bears I would always go to their summer practices and met Gale Sayers and Dick Butkus after meeting them at the Bears summer practices I became a Bears fan. How can you not love Gale Sayers one of the nicest person I have ever met. He answered so many of my questions about football during those camps. I didn't even know who he was when I first met him.

2017 Green Bay Packers draft preview and predictions
nate82 replied to LouisEly's topic in Off-Topic Forum
Watt seems like the consensus pick for you Packer fans and he does fit a 3-4 defense. Not sure I would take a pass rush first OLB with my first pick though he does fix your problem of a weak pass rush. I would actually trade for another 2nd or 3rd pick with that 1st round pick. I think there is more value in the 2-3 rounds and having extra picks there would bring in more value than that late 1st round pick. -
Way to much for Gallo as his value has dropped far below his worth. From a couple of friends who are scouts for the Orioles and the Angels they compare Gallo to Chris Carter and at best he could be Branyan or a Rob Deer type of a player. I also don't believe DS and the current management value Gallo all that much. I wouldn't be surprised if DS never even asked about Gallo when trading Lucroy or told the Rangers he was not interested in Gallo. Gallo just doesn't really fit the type of players DS and company are looking for. The market for Gallo right now the Rangers would be lucky to get a #3 type pitcher in return.

There is a new professional football league that may change college football but it will depend on how well this league can attract elite high school football players. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18449983/new-pacific-pro-football-league-debut-summer-2018

How is this even possible?

ETF's are better than mutual funds. Here is a good article on ETF vs Mutual Funds. https://www.forbes.com/sites/feeonlyplanner/2013/07/18/whats-the-difference-mutual-funds-and-exchange-traded-funds-explained/#3b42a5ac18ac SPDR "spider" ETF's are also a good investment.

For the most part paper money is going to be worth very little. The coins on the other hand can be more valuable depending on how rare they are. You might want to just keep the coins as they could become more valuable as they age.

It would help I guess to post some more info on this show. This basically tells the story of season 1 in a nutshell.
-
Anyone else watching this show on Syfy? So far I have been loving season 2. The first season was kind of slow but wow this season is great.
-
So don't bench him and only let him play 5 min of the first half because he has 2 fouls? It basically does the same thing as not starting him as he gets into foul trouble at about the 10 minute mark and then he is out for the first half. This has been going on all season and more so lately. Having him come off the bench after the first few minutes will actually get him more playing time in the 1st half than he has been getting in the last two games.
-
I have a Red Sox hat that is a little bit older from my youth baseball. We actually used the real teams hats instead of the ones everyone else had made for them we thought it was cooler back then.
-
Happ needs to stop getting into early foul trouble at the beginning of the game. That is two games in a row now where he has barely played any minutes in the 1st half due to foul trouble. I wonder if Happ needs to be coming off the bench right now because he is getting way to many fouls in the early part of the 1st half of the game. If the Badgers advance and play Duke that is going to be a serious problem for the Badgers.
-
When I was younger I always loved Griffey, Thomas and Henderson. So I have hats for the White Sox, A's and the Mariners. I still follow the A's and the Mariners. I also follow the Braves a bit but not all that much since the Brewers switched leagues. For the other sports it is just one team.
-
Why do you think he is done?
-
If the Bucks are not going to be contending for the next two years they should just trade Giannis or Middleton this off season. With one more good piece added to the current team you are looking at the 3rd best team in the East.

Supposedly Hill turned down a 3/75 deal after the deadline, must be hoping to get the 4th year. Crazy that he'd turn that down but just shows how much he's looking for this offseason. Can't blame him I suppose, not like he's made a ton in his career and he's like 30 now, so this is his last big payday. Favors having an injury plagued year could help keep his price down but I think he's signed through next year so you'd have to trade for him. Then if he's healthy all next year his price will skyrocket too. Yes Hill would cost a lot but he would be a fit for the Bucks at the point. The Jazz have reportedly been shopping Favors to possibly deal him during the draft. If the Bucks are in the late teens in the draft I would look to trade that pick for Favors and a 2nd round pick.

Orlando Arcia's Hitting Ability (And/Or the Lack There of)
nate82 replied to 3and2Fastball's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Francisco Lindor who was thought of as a glove first SS has a very similar career AAA stat line that Arcia has you need to use two years to get close to the PA's that Arcia had last year. Now look at Lindor he is looking better at the plate. It is way too early to judge what Arcia is going to be and even if he doesn't hit all that well his defense more than makes up for his poor offense. Sending Arcia back to AAA just doesn't accomplish all that much right now it would be more of a set back than anything else right now. -
Brewers claim 1B Jesus Aguilar, DFA Adrianza
nate82 replied to JDBrewCrew's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I think Aguilar has secured a spot on the roster with his play so far. I wish he had more flexibility to be the 5th OF and be the back up at 1B but this is one of those times where you wish the NL had the DH rule. -
I agree Wichita St is severely under seeded but it seems like they always do this every year with at least one team being severely under seeded. This doesn't really hurt the team that is under seeded but it does hurt a #4 or #5 seed and to a lesser extent the #1 and #2 seeds. Wichita St is a better team than Dayton and it is not even close. The Kentucky Wichita St game really should be a sweet 16 game and not a 2nd round game. Wichita St should have gotten a 5 seed over Minnesota who did not deserve a 5 seed. I would swap Wichita St and Minnesota and I would be more happy with this years bracket.

For me I own physical gold as there are ways around paying taxes with physical gold versus ETF. All legal btw.

I didn't think gold or silver bars carried much of a premium above spot price? I thought small denomination coins were the easiest to unload? Coins are good for coin collectors not much beyond that. Bars are easier to unload because they have the stamp on them and can be cut up into smaller pieces and melted. You can't really cut up a coin and if you do you are destroying some of its value coin collection.
