  1. From Uni Watch Blog... As you may recall, a few weeks ago the Brewers announced their 2012 promotional schedule, which included this tidbit: “[T]he Brewers will wear … a ‘Birraioli’ jersey (the Italian translation of ‘Brewers’) on Italian Heritage Day [July 1].” That caught the attention of Marco Scurati, who lives in Italy. Here’s what he wrote to Tyler Barnes, the Brewers’ VP of Communications: “Do you know ‘birrioli’ doesn’t exist in any dictionary of the Italian language? It’s a slang expression referring to beer lovers (in the sense of heavy drinkers). The right translation for ‘Brewers’ would be ‘Birrai.’ Why did you choose the other term?” And here’s the response he got: “We are likely going to use ‘Birrai’ on the jerseys. We have consulted several universities as well as other officials on the translation, and, as you stated, Birrai is most appropriate.”

  3. Ugghhh...don't toy with our emotions like that! Maybe your source is right, but it will just give me more hope and make me more upset if it turns out that he gets suspended. I've double checked my source and he says he's positive that he'll be exonerated. Believe me, I've told as many people as possible. I'll look like a fool if I'm wrong.
  4. That source wasn't me was it? If so, please give me credit. No, not you, homer. Can't refresh BF/Twitter fast enough...
  5. I've been told through a fairly reliable source that he will be exonerated! Still awaiting the official announcement though.
  6. I'll definitely be buying the premium subscription for the season. Here's a breakdown of everything included. Love the fact that you can overlay the radio broadcast with the video feed. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/subscriptions/index.jsp
  7. Do you get all the games that are on TV (FSW, WMLW, Fox, ESPN, etc.) or how exactly does MLB TV work? I remember a friend of mine had the at-bat app a few years ago and said that he only got the video feed (no audio). I left Wisconsin in September and hated missing those pivotal games down the stretch (had to go to bars to watch playoffs) and I don't want to miss games this year. I don't have cable and really don't want to get it along with the Fox Sports package just to get the Brewers games.
  8. I'm glad this came up. I was thinking about getting mlbtv for my ps3. Anyone ever try it on there? What's the video quality like?
