  1. Just curious . . . why a $105 entry fee? Is that because you use the $100 for the prizes and you skim the extra $5 as a service fee for running the pool? I'm not judging, I'm just asking. As for the rules on such a thing, I know that we've had a Brewerfan.net bracket contest in the past but we haven't in a quite a while, and I don't remember if it was just for fun or if we paid into it. My initial feeling on it would be that it couldn't be an officially sanctioned thing on the site. But if people wanted to PM you about it and enter that way, there's probably no problem. Other mods like to chime in?
  2. Brewers 94 Cubs 91 Cardinals 82 Reds 77 Pirates 70
  3. Man, I would love to apply for that job. Bob Betts was a legend. Robb, well, I've only heard him a handful of times when I've been up there (or on TV, sometimes.) He seemed pretty good, too.
  4. Yeah, my wife and I saw Aquaman yesterday and were very impressed. It didn't have that normal DC "feel" to it (although I sensed it a couple of times.)
  5. Really great baseball game!
  6. Turner’s gonna hit One out here Edit:or strike out because he wants to play 18 innings
  7. Yeah, or expand the rosters because a position-player ends up having to pitch.
  8. Anybody else up watching this? I don’t care a tinker’s cuss about who wins this game or series but it’s been fun watching the extra Inning drama. It’s midnight here as they start the 17th inning!!! Eovaldi has pitched 6 innings of relief!! Wow!
  9. This was just my observations from watching on television, but Mr. Schoop . . . no matter where he was on the field (playing defense, in the batter's box, in the dugout) looked (to ME) like he would have rather been ANYWHERE but where he was. Almost as if he was thinking, "You know, if I hadn't been traded, I would've been on vacation by now, dammit." Now, maybe that has been his mannerisms throughout his time in Baltimore, as well. I don't really know. And maybe he is truly a mild-mannered man that doesn't show emotion. Those people DO exist. It just struck me as odd, I guess.
  10. *ahem* Quite the extra inning WORLD SERIES game we've got going here! Can we get back on topic and discuss the merits and annoyances of IGTs somewhere else? (yes, I realize that, I guess, this IS an IGT. . . . )
  11. Echoing dhonks, I currently have 8 years remaining until I hit "early retirement" by Arizona standards (my wife has 6.) I will be 53 at that point. But the monthly pension at that age is slightly over $800/month. Egads! That's NOT going to work! If I stay until I'm 58, I can get about $1800/month, and if I stay until "regular/full retirement" at age 65, I will get about $3800/month. So, as bad as I'd like to retire at 53, when I get my "80 points", it's not going to happen. We've got IRA's and other investments, too, but those have just been stagnating for so long. The growth just isn't really where it should be. So, I'm guessing that I will go into my 60s before it's a strong consideration for me. *sigh*
  12. That could have been a LOT worse than it was. Still within only one run! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
  13. Miley watching and waiting for Rosenthal to finish. I was waiting for Wade to run over and tell him to get off the air.
  14. I'm a 20-seat SSH and I got in. Got 4 seats for game 4 of the World Series. Stoked about my seat location!
  15. Ugh. Late night and now sitting at work. Game starts at 2 pm AZ time so I'm recording it on my DVR and turning my phone off after lunch. Won't get home until about 6 pm AZ time so game likely to be over (or close to it.) Radio silence all day and then watch when I get home--could be another long night.
  16. I've said the same thing: no bunting, no stealing, no hit and runs--all that stuff we've done all season. I haven't seen any of that tonight until Braun stole a bag in the 10th
  17. And what would we be offering for him? I love dreams, rainbows, and unicorns, too. But it's gonna take a major offer to land him.
  18. My bad. I called that. Said to the wife, "Boy, 27 pitches today and a lot yesterday....I don't like this one bit." Literally two seconds later, BOOM Ugh, talk about a stomach punch.
