  1. Cody was acquired from the Tigers for Jose Capellan. Josh Butler is the pitcher we received for Gross.
  2. Baseball blogs with a political agenda. Oof.
  3. Buzzkill.
  4. They shot the album cover on the day of their second show in Milwaukee last April. (April 16th if you're really really interested.) As impressed as I was with their show, I'm a bit more impressed that they got that camel to stay on those chairs long enough for at least one photo.
  5. It seems so easy to implement technology to fix the fair/foul issue. Put a chip in the ball, mark the lines and bases (or maybe just mark fair territory in general to account for ground balls skewing sideways after the base), and have a computer automatically decide whether the hit is fair or foul. There would be no need for review, no need to worry about where the runners should be on an overturned call, no delays. There's no reason this couldn't be used in a similar way on the top of the outfield wall for Home Runs, too. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon is working on a system for accurately tracking/spotting a football in game play. Maybe they'll get bored and decide tinker with baseball.
  6. Was it Jeffress who said earlier this spring that he was working on being less of a strikeout pitcher to give him the ability to go deeper into games or was that someone else?
  7. Link. No length or financial terms announced, but you gotta think it's better than the bottom-of-the-barrel contract Attanasio inherited.
  8. PH for Snell? What's going on? I thought Macha and Russell had some sort of handshake agreement to keep their starters in until one of their arms fell off.
  9. If what you're adding to threads is just the tip of the iceberg, you can count me as interested. I generally enjoy your insight.
  10. I keep loading the Journal-Sentinel homepage and keep fooling myself into thinking this lady is Elton John: http://media.jsonline.com/images/599*372/memorial29p.jpg http://www.jsonline.com/m.../Photos_of_the_Week.html
  11. Move closer to the city and you'll love WMLW if you're a non-cable subscriber. I recently came to the revelation that I don't watch pay television nearly enough to justify continuing the service, so tonight is a treat for me.
  12. A veteran-PH discussion without a single mention of Lenny "The Weapon" Harris? What's going on here?
  13. It seems I post in this thread after every concert I go to, but seeing Wilco at the Pabst last night was a real treat. Man, that second balcony is steep though.
  14. A buyer's agent doesn't necessarily work for the seller. Hypothetically they could, but the good ones wouldn't solely point you to properties they are selling. Also, in Wisconsin, the buyer pays no commission to the buyers agent on a sale if used. One advantage to using a buyer's agent is their access to the MLS database and access to the properties at non-open house times, which may be more convenient to the buyer. When we bought our house, we came from across the state and had about a 4 month window until our lease ended while pregnant with our first child. Doing all the searching on our own would have been a huge pain, considering we only had weekends to work with. But if you're determined to do it on your own, there's no harm in that either. It just takes a little bit more effort.
  15. A bit awkward indeed. I think they were expecting a quicker inning.
  16. Broadcast related note: Jeff Tweedy from Wilco is in the booth. If I wasn't such a fan, I'd be a bit perturbed they're not really focusing on the game action here. Can't wait for their shows in the Pabst this week. I'll be there on Wednesday.
  17. How do I put this delicately... I think the idea of the dude in charge being fiercely anti-government is so parallel to Milwaukee County in a tragi-comedic sense it's almost not funny. Actually, come to think of it, his character was the highlight for me as long as I don't think beyond the show. I thought the episode was pretty 'meh', but really, how does that differ from most pilots? I'll give it a few more weeks, too.
  18. Is it just me, or is the J-S just maddeningly stupid? Apparently the Town of Brookfield lost an appeal today to the City of Brookfield in an annexation dispute. And how does the J-S choose to publicize the end result of this dispute? With this headline: Court backs Brookfield in annexation dispute This affects me in no way whatsoever on a personal level, I'd just appreciate a modicum of higher standards from the state's biggest news entity.
  19. I really support Marquette the most in terms of basketball, but I was hoping all the big east rivals of theirs would lose right away. Having 4 Big East teams in the Elite Eight and 2 in the Final Four validates the idea that the Big East was a superior conference this season. Doesn't rooting for all the other teams to lose sort of undermine the success Marquette had?
  20. The idea of Stanley as "Productivity Czar" and Kevin as receptionist is just hilarious. All that's missing is putting Angela to work loading trucks in the warehouse. I can't wait for the next episode.
  21. This popped up in my inbox last night: Nice touch here, but it would have been funnier if he would have ended it with some sort of ultimatum.
  22. If you're in the Milwaukee area, I've had luck with Kohl's and JC Penney. But the one we got was the current logo, so I'm not sure about availability of anything retro.
  23. http://dsc.discovery.com/...atch/deadliestcatch.html I don't watch much television anymore. These are the shows that I try to catch on a weekly basis: The Office How I Met Your Mother 30 Rock (although I prefer to wait for it to come out on DVD so I can watch them all at once)
  24. That would be incorrect. They have the 58-2 and 58-3 subchannels. During non-tournament times, 58-2 is the feed for WMLW, and 58-3 airs meTV (old-timey television). During the tournament, 58-3 was showing SD versions of the game. Nice find, Patrick. This completely makes sense to me. CBS in La Crosse wasn't multi-casting at all last year I believe and the picture was 1000x better. Then I move to Milwaukee and get stuck with this muck.
