I'm simply replying posts directed at me. That's how messageboards work. Just put me on ignore if I bother you so much. You can tell everyone you're doing so for e-cred if you want the attention.
-
oh, clearly I misread the context...
-
No. Thinking the Brewers have an easy path to the playoffs makes you unrealistic.
-
then you're one of the few and far between who post on the board.
-
I didn't, everyone who came at me in this thread and the Fiers thread did. You act as if I don't want the Brewers to win and make it. I've still got tix to 4 games this year, all tix I paid $65-$75 each for behind home plate. There's nothing I'd like more than to see a 5th, 6th, 7th, etc game in the postseason at Miller Park. I just don't see the "WE GOT THIS" attitude like others.

repost from the other thread... I'll tell you what. I will make it easy on you all so you don't have to keep coming at me in multiple threads. If the Brewers fall 6 games out or more between now and the playoffs, THEY'RE DONE. I bolded it, and I'm not sugar coating it. There's no context question either. If they fall 6 games out and still make the playoffs, I will quit the board. ^ go ahead and quote that, put it in your sig, whatever. As a (what I consider) informative fan, there's no other way to logically look at things different. You guys don't have to consider me informed, and you can label me a "brewer hater" all you want for being honest. I'm telling you how it is.

It's context. You could read every other post and realize that. There's about 43 posts between this thread and another one in which people are acting as if the playoffs are an easy feat now. but feel free to read posts and use your own special interruption on them.
-
It is a choice, and/or an opinion, you're right. It's not illogical to argue when someone makes it sound as if it's an easy run to a playoff spot either.
-
I never said "they're done". Stop making things up to try and push an argument. It's sad. I am just trying to temper the expectations of the people who are acting as if the playoff run is easy to achieve at this point. It's not. It's still a stretch. That is what I am trying to push.

Looking at history? 5 games back of last wild card spot... Without looking, I think there is 4 teams in the running with the Brewers for that wildcard spot. Brewers have to not only on on a sick run, but they need the other teams to bottom out a bit. History (or common sense) says the Brewers need a minor miracle, I'm sorry. I'm all about them pushing on and I'm fine with saying there's a bit of a chance, but you can't act as if they have a legit chance or anything like that. Please don't jump the gun.
-
I agree, but we need more than a run. Sign Clemens now
-
If the Brewers get within a game or two that will be the first step of the process.
-
then I will defaecate an SUV
-
They're 6 back of the final wild card with 23 games left and a lot of teams in the mix. They are out of contention. I admit, I got back on the wagon. Had they won yesterday, I maybe still on it. It's unicorns and leprechauns at this point. The run was fun though.

you couldn't even get Marcum for that, more/less dumper.

^ exactly see what we got in the unknowns next year, keep the payroll down, then in 2014, tack on the saved payroll from 2013 to the 2014 payroll, fill the needed holes, and MAKE A LEGIT RUN.
-
I realize that. Was not headed in that direction. What I'm saying is - win out make miraculous playoff appearance or who cares
-
.500 is a pointless goal, seriously. Either they make the playoffs, or they lose the rest of their games. Anything in between is pointless.

Ike is coming around. Has like 25 bombs I think. Lots of XBH's Smoak still stinks, I agree.
-
thank god they can't buy anymore
-
People who keep pushing the fact that putting stock in rookies can be detrimental are missing the big picture...the Brewers are still a small market team. Small market teams can't always sign the sure thing FA on their team, and if they have a guy (or two) waiting in the wings that could possibly fill the position just as good or close to as good, you roll with the rookie.
-
Just going to drop that. They mentioned it on the radio.
