What's bugging me? The magnitude of the choke job that went on vs Penn St tonight. Bucky D looks as bad or worse than the Packer D does.

Brewers sign Eric Thames (3 years)
superfly replied to jerichoholicninja's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I'm all for anything that puts Nieuwenhuis' job in jeopardy. -
When Hayes decides to be brutal, he has to be one of the best in college basketball at it. Pathetic showing.
-
It really is a BS excuse. There's zero inclination to play well going on out there aside from maybe #12 and Jordy. Belichick played WRs at CB when he was decimated with injuries and STILL won. Good coaches adapt, and since some seem to think MM is a very good coach then he should be compared in the same neighborhood as good coaches like BB and Carroll. Like you said losing is one thing, but losing badly and listlessly is not acceptable.

Vikings are the same way with Peterson and Matt Kalil. It has nothing to do with ratings down (temporarily).

First part I'm quoting from you is a pretty strong indictment of MM. 5-6 years with a roster good enough to win the SB and never did. Or even MADE it to the SB. Lost at home in the playoffs at least twice I can remember in that stretch. Lost to the Seahawks in a game that should have been won. I know, you can't win the SB every year. But MM hasn't really even knocked on the door since the SB they won. Your other comment, straw man. I never heard anyone expect a 12-4 season with the injuries they've had. What about the 200 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns allowed to Colin Kaepernick in a playoff game? Or the Larry Fitzgerald meltdown in overtime where they completely lose a HOF'er in coverage and then proceeds to dodge and outrun about 7 Packer defenders down to the endzone? The injury excuse is BS, every team is full of them this time of year. Under MM's tenure there has been plenty of regular season winning, but when the playoffs come it is underachievement central. MM can't coach in big game situations, and has a pretty long history of it outside of 2010.

I'm not sure what happened, but something clicked on Rodgers last week in the 2nd half, and it continued today. He looks like he's back to MVP ARodge zinging the ball all over the place & running for first downs. Hopefully it continues because I can see us making a deep run in the playoffs as our guys get healthy. Whatever transpired prior to the 2nd half last week was downright painful to watch and it really looked like Rodgers might have been past his peak.

What a pathetic "announcement."

What could Braun bring from the Dodgers?
superfly replied to SandyTolan's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Things always sound rosy in the land of Oz. Funny how a guy like Braun who actually has produced at an elite level in a Brewers uniform for a decade should be pawned off for whatever yet guys like Wily Peralta and Jimmy Nelson who are turned out to be marginal pitchers heaven forbid should have never been (or now) traded while they actually had a bit of value. Baffling to me how it's a double standard. Sometimes it's OK to hold onto a guy for his entire career. -
He's not good, back end starter at best. He has a good month or two each year and is horrendous the rest of the season. People are/were way too high on the guy. Garza is the same pitcher in his current state, or perhaps even a tad better yet people want his head chopped off. Blinded by the "he came from our system" positivity.
-
Horrendous loss, just when I was starting to get excited for the season.
-
I don't understand the problem with Arcia getting the call. If the kid's ready, lets get him up here, who cares about the consequences? The Twins have made a living out of "saving" control time over their minor leaguers, yet it hasn't helped a bit. If Arcia ends up being too far ahead of the next wave, then let's cross the bridge when we get there, extend him, or trade him away when his value is high for pitching or prospects. There's more than one way to skin a cat in the biz...
-
He's a pointless veteran taking away at bats from two young outfielders. It'd be one thing if it's a situation like Carter where it's a pointless veteran signed because we had no one else there (even though I would've preferred giving Pinto a shot at 1B instead of signing Carter.) Anyone consider maybe the youngsters haven't EARNED that playing time yet?

Brewers won claim on Puig
superfly replied to Brewcrewin07's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
This. and this... Puig is a great buy low option who may need a change of scenery from that dump er I mean nice organization. For the right price of course. Giving up Braun for him however would not be a good idea. -
Never seen a bigger racket in my life than TV. Mediacom (cable) started us out around $60, then steadily increased to nearly $200.00 A MONTH for a freakin middle of the road cable/internet package. No bells and whistles, no movies ordered...just a middling package. And it was going to increase for the next 2 years from there! Until folks start paying attention and telling these companies to F off with their autodraft policies and overcharging they're going to continue to do it. Hopefully in a couple years Sling/Roku/Hulu etc will be a bit more friendly to general consumers and I'll go there. Looked into it before going to Dish and by the time I added what I wanted it was nearly the same price anyway...the channel selection isn't as ala-carte as people think it is.

I know you are a Garza apologist, but even to try to argue that a guy who should have given up 3 runs while committing an error, giving up 'only' two hard hit hits in just 3 2/3rds , didn't deserve to lose the game, is on a whole different level. This also ignores the fact that Marinez stranded 2 inherited runners from Garza, so Garza actually could have easily given up 7 or even 8 runs. Yes, if we have absolutely zero expectations of Garza compared to any replacement level call-up, he did fine. The line says he gave up 5 runs, so he gave up 5 runs. Don't become one of those hockey apologists who say "X played better than it looks and deserved to win."

Good lord how is he only 38? Doesn't it feel like he's been on life support for about 6 years now? Can't hurt to bring him in, but one has to wonder what he has left at this point, as it's likely going to take minutes away from Vaughn, MCW, etc.
-
How do they even remember Yi was a basketball player? It's astounding what a dumpsterfire that organization has become...really quite sad.

Usain Bolt.

A month ago I would have said go for it. Keon is destroying souls for a few weeks now, I think i'd like to see him get some PT from here and see if we have a player in him. The tools are there, teams have just been waiting for the bat to come around.
-
Did I miss something and Tebow is PAYING the media to put him back in the spotlight? If not, I am not getting the connection here between him and "putting himself in the spotlight." He has every right to do whatever the heck he wants, who are you to judge?

Prince Fielder's career ends due to medical issues
superfly replied to MrTPlush's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Was being nostalgic watching some youtube videos of 2008/2011. Man, was that a fun time between CC / Braun / Fielder / Tony plush. Sad to see him go but health must come first. -
15 runs...unleash the kraken!!!!!!!
-
I'll deal with a .350 OBP until he figures out hitting better.
-
Garza dealing a 1 hitter thus far. Call me crazy but Broxton seems to be getting a little better of late, maybe we shouldn't give up on him just yet.
