    Is that pronounced like Brett Favre?
  2. pitchleague
    only word of advice I have is don't go coach. Get a sleeper.

    Indiana Jones does not make it out of the cave and gets flattened by the huge rolling ball. Thus, Raiders of the Lost Ark is nominated for a 1982 Oscar for Best Short Film instead of Best Picture.

    LOL! Oh, wait. . . . .http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    oh, I know. That's why I said that I had to re-read it a few times. I thought of correcting him in my post, but I know that is frowned upon also (fixing others' grammar and spelling etc.) but I just found it funny that it took me a few minutes to realize he meant i.e. instead of Internet Explorer.

    Since I always have to re-send them back to Wisconsin (to the in-laws who actually use the tickets), I know it is in March, usually mid-March. Yay 2800 hits, er, posts!

    peavey, nicely explained. However, I had to re-read this sentence three times: "IE, if you post, "Sheets' injuries make him a liability to the team and he doesn't help us down the stretch you moron" and get warned by a mod, the warning has nothing to do with your views on Sheets, it's because you called the other poster a moron which is a violation of the Rules of Conduct," because I couldn't for the life of me understand what Internet Explorer had to do with anything. I'm a little slow in the morning.

    I'm impressed that you are coaching an offense to a bunch of third graders. whenever I've seen 3rd grade age kids playing hoops (even in an organized league) it's ball-hog heaven with kids just running back and forth and kids going, basically, one-on-five because they just take it to the rim themselves, with varying levels of success.

    It's Obi-Wan's long lost brother, Steve Kanobi.

    hey, enjoy Northern Arizona. It's just like Wisconsin. No, seriously, except for the mountains, you'd swear you were back home. There's probably the same amount of snow in Flagstaff as there is in Milwaukee right now (well, before this week at least).

    Our Federal was down about $600 from last year but we're still getting $1000. AZ is giving back $1300 so that's nice, too. Probably should invest it or pay off debt but there's a big part of me that wants to blow it on a trip or an HDTV or something.

    I hope she's a keeper, then, because you'd hate for her to pitch in on a nice TV only to have her keep the TV in any split-ups/arguments/etc.

    couldn't watch this one this year (thank you, Big Ten Network for intervening!). But I flipped over during commercial breaks and it looked good, until the end. Really, when #2 plays #3 does it matter who wins? The loser is going to drop, what, 2 spots in the rankings at most? Now, put them together in March? THAT would be good to see.
  14. pitchleague
    I've played RBI to death, and High Heat 2002 was awesome and realistic, but MVP 2005 (for the PC) is the bomb since I can still play with updated rosters and modded stadiums, etc. I also play Diamond Mind Baseball, but that's not quite a video game as it's more of a simulator.
  15. pitchleague
    read War and Peace--in Russian.
  16. pitchleague
    but, I guess salesgenie did it's job--we're all talking about it. It created buzz and publicity for the sight. For them, it probably didn't matter if it was positive or negative. They took a gamble that it would get their site noticed and it worked--well, half-way, at least; now people actually have to go to their site and use it.
  17. pitchleague
    yeah, I'm in AZ and I always order the extra innings package as well as the Sports Pack channels. With me not having an HDTV yet, I didn't know if any other "out-of-state/market" people have been able to get the HD broadcasts last year. I was pretty sure about them having a channel 642 HD, but didn't know if that was available only in the market or not.
  18. pitchleague
    wonder how many fox regional channels that DirecTV will give us this year. I don't have a HDTV (yet) but it would be a major selling point if DTV puts out a channel 642 HD for Brewer games.

    joe, he can't try projecting it on a wall until he gets a bulb and I think he wants to know if he should invest the $$$ on a bulb or not. I, too, think it should have plenty of room. Are your walls painted? Or they just white? Are they textured? I would think you could probably just project an image onto the wall. Or a better idea that I've heard about is getting one of those big foam-boards (almost like poster board but thick with foam in the middle) and use that as your screen. You can actually get those pretty large if you look around.

    I got sick of applying for teaching jobs for 2 years that, on a whim, I decided to look elsewhere just for fun. I looked at my school's job pamphlet and the first out of state job was for Kingman, AZ (it was the first one on the list in the state of AZ, so that's why I chose it. Out of the blue, they called to set up and interview, so I went to visit my cousin, who was living in Victorville, CA at the time, and drove the 4 hours over for the interview, which went well, but nothing special. Two weeks later, they called me again offering the job. I took it because, as I said, I was tired of applying for jobs in midwest schools that only wanted experienced teachers (nice of them to actually put that on their qualifications list when posting jobs! stupid principals!) so I accepted the job and moved without knowing a soul. It was a bit lonely and definitely hard at first being so far away but I recovered and before long I had a small set of friends. And I, a guy who thought he'd never find a wife, did just that at my new school. So, if I were to do it again, I probably would take the plunge. It was definitely different and some major culture shock. But I'm not lonely and I go back to Wisconsin periodically to visit family and friends during the summer and/or the holidays.

    what's with the smirk in her picture? I haven't heard her yet, although I vaguely remember seeing her on a Pirates broadcast when I had the sound muted and was listening to Uecker and Powell instead.
  22. pitchleague
    who voted on this? I totally missed this (in the news, that is. I KNOW that I didn't have a vote.)

    airshuttle is right on about that series in August last year. We, too, were "told" to sit down when we were cheering on the Brewers in game one. We didn't listen. Actually, the fans behind us and to our left had a pleasant discussion about it after the female usher left. We all kind of shrugged it off. One guy behind me even said, "it's okay, we suck tonight. Enjoy it while you can." brewguru, Chase Field is a lot different now than in 2000 when you were there. The Hall of Fame stuff? Gone. In it's place? A nightclub. Leinie's? Building still exists but now it's "Hi-Tops" which is a bar-restaurant by day (complete with Hi-Tops girls--think Hooter's) and dance club at night. The restaurant behind home plate? Yeah, I think it's still there. Only 300 or so fans get to use it, though, so it's not really counted as a "fan amenity" in my book. It's still a great ballpark, but they could do much better. And, airshuttle, I full-heartedly support you on the downtown stadium= no tailgating thing. It stinks. Several times I have thought long and hard about arriving way early, parking on the top level of a garage, and breaking out the mini-Weber. But, with 120-degree temps up there, I don't think I could bear it.

    I'll definitely try something out when I get back home next week.
