    They crossed the line long ago but I still get them all. I can't be the only one. They run the analytics. They make a killing off these or they would end them.

    Kinda feel like Branyan is really in a league of his own here. I don't think Gorman and guys like Richie Sexson even belong in the conversation. Everybody liked those guys.

    Don't agree that he can only win if they make the playoffs. Making the playoffs is hard. This isn't the NBA. I think people know that. If Thames has an all-star year and the Brewers finish .500 or better I think he has a very, very good chance. Again, it's April, but I'm also already worried about another team taking Stearns away from us. I like the hire from the start. Still haven't been proven right, way too early.

    You have to wonder how many these they add after seeing how well these sell. Weird because this one is a Cubs game and would have sold well anyway. But a bit curious.

    Yet, you wouldn't wear a Phillies hat to a Phillies/Brewers game.... just some fabric, whatever. Because it's a Brewers game and I'm a Brewers fan? I don't see how you're equating those two things. Wearing the opposing team's hat during a specific game against that team != wearing a random team's hat to the mall. And here's a shocker - I can sleep just fine at night regardless of your opinion on my hat.

    Meh, I call bologna. I'm a Brewers fan. Only Brewers when it comes to baseball. I would not wear a Phillies hat to a game, if they were playing the Phillies. But I have a few hats. I have a Phillies hat, I have an old Expos hat. I have a Cubs hat. I have a Cardinals hat. I wear them when I want to wear a hat and don't want to wear the same one every day. I liked the styling of the logo. There is no science to which one I wear, I wear the Brewers the most, but this idea that wearing another one is anything other just putting some fabric on your head is just silly.

    I got a promotional mailer from my rep that has all that promotions. It's listed on there.

    The GoT promo is a "Bernie Brewer Iron Throne Bobblehead"

    The Brewers, and every professional sports team, have economics MBAs doing the analytics on concession pricing. They don't sit in a room and throw darts at ideas. If they made more money on dollar dog night, all the hot dogs be a buck. People much smarter than us are researching this stuff every day. The families you speak of most likely would not buy food, period, at the park. I'm one of those. We have the money, but we are food snobs and frugal for the most part and would not purchase ballpark food because it's substandard and not a good use of money. We're not who they're after. They want the people who do buy food now to have a better experience and be willing to spend even more on improved offerings. The timing of it is pretty perfect, as they probably need another year of gimmicky type stuff before the on-field performance gets people to the park.

    Who knows. With the nimble guys Stearns seems to love stockpiling in the middle, he could have somebody he likes more and wants him in the majors to showcase trade value. In any event I think this has been part of the plan for awhile. I don't buy for a second that they called him up to appease fans who are sad about Lucroy. I just can't get behind that. I tend to think they just want him ready to be the every day guy sooner than later.
  12. OldSchoolSnapper
    They didn't do this to appease fans. C'mon you guys, get serious. They're looking at a picture bigger than that.
  13. OldSchoolSnapper
    Yeah, I can't believe more people aren't acknowledging this.
  14. OldSchoolSnapper
    Smith is a lefty. That is why they were able to get that kind of return. Jeffress alone would not have commanded that kind of price tag. I think this is a pretty good deal. We just got a TOR starter and a potentially really good OFer. As always with these deals, potential will be the ultimate jury.
  15. OldSchoolSnapper
    Don't think anyone will be happy with a Lucroy trade. I know he's been a favorite for years, but the market just was not there for him. The expectations need to come down; teams were not biting on him. I think that's pretty clear.

    We also get the rights to Prince Fielder.

    So I bought a paint Bernie bobble on Craigslist for my son, only to get home and realize it has no paint. The seller is being kind of a jerk about it, and causing more headache than its worth. Lesson learned to check the box. What are the odds the Brewers will swap it for me so I can get one with the paint? U

    I need the alarm clock and have an extra ghostbusters bobble - any takers?

    If you haven't heard these are all the rage right now. Given out last as part of a theme night at Busch Stadium. I was able to get a few of them. I'm probably going to move them on eBay but thought I would open it up here first - asking $60 each.

    Counsell mastered the art of maximizing return on almost no talent, so he should be a great fit for this team.
  22. OldSchoolSnapper
    I got tickets and vouchers for both games about 2 weeks ago.
  23. OldSchoolSnapper
    Sorry, I meant have they announced when the SnP is. I haven't seen a date anywhere.
  24. OldSchoolSnapper
    If you find a happy place where you just want the bobbles for your collection and block out all the nonsense, you will be more fulfilled. -Bobble Lama

    Have they announced when Stitch n Pitch is this year? I can't find it if they have.
