I agree on Lotza Motza, they are awesome and by far my favorite. I also like Home Run in. These are the only frozen pizzas that I look forward to eating. My kids will only eat cheese pizza. This is great for me because I move all the sausage and/or pepperoni to one side before cooking and I get a meat lovers. It doesn’t get any better than that! My, what has having 4 kids done to me.....

I’m very pleased overall. I may be the exception but I love the home jersey without the pinstripes. My favorite by far. I would like to see cursive on the main road jersey and will admit, something seems a bit off about the road alternate. Subtle changes will likely be made over time to get things further dialed in. I also happen to think the Wisconsin logo is great. All things considered, I am thrilled with the new look. I am also super excited about the thought of the Brewers sporting their 1994 jerseys on turn back the clock night! To me, I’ll look back fondly on the years with the “M” over the barley. It will represent a period where I enjoyed competitive Brewer baseball and cheered some deep playoff runs. Good times. -
I texted my brother about this because these sorts of things are very interesting to me. His response terrified me. He asked, “They would still be the Brewers, right?” That thought had never even crossed my mind but now I am worried. The Milwaukee Insurance Agents? Could it be!?!?

Not sure as to why some of these professionals can't seem to run full speed out of the box. That shouldn't have even been close at 2nd.
-
Great, so Knebel gets them through another inning. Now tack on a couple more runs to make the decision to not pinch hit a non-issue.
-
I would have given Santana a chance to blow this thing wide open. Really hope this doesn't come back to bite them.
-
I don't think I've seen a bigger jerk than Machado in all of baseball.
-
Was afraid Pina was going to fall off 2B with that celebration, lol.
-
Doesn't feel like we are only down one. Hopefully Freddy can settle in now starting an inning with a clean slate.
-
These postseason games are taking a toll on me! Hard to believe that splitting a 4 game series will now put them in the World Series.
-
Jeffress with a scoreless 9th to preserve the win!
-
Arcia and Kratz getting it done in the postseason. Who would have thought? Would be so huge to get wins against both Kershaw and Buehler. Loving this ride!

Offical rule changes - faster play and safer slides
Beast Light replied to MadScientist's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I have no problem with the new rules. However, if you shorten the time between innings by 20 seconds, you are essentially reducing in-game commercial time by about 14%. I wonder what the impact on TV revenue will be. -
Hard liquor. A virus is a living organism, and alcohol can kill living organisms, so if a viral organism absorbs a molecule of alcohol the viral organism will die. It's why the "Irish cure for a cold" (whiskey) really works. Get your BAC up high enough (but not too high) so that the alcohol in your blood steam will kill the viral organisms - try three or four shots an hour (depending on size/body weight) for 2-3 hours (or until you see two bottles) then go to bed. Do that a couple of times and you'll shorten the course of the infection. Vodka with an orange juice chase (get some vitamin C) should be tolerable. Talk about high-risk, high-reward! I might give this a shot sometime (no pun intended). Some people I work with swear by taking a shot after every meal when working in China. They say its the only way to make sure you don't get sick.

I figured Khris Davis would be traded but I thought it would happen at the deadline. You have to wonder how much longer it will be before Lucroy is gone. We have obviously been building for the future for quite some time but with each trade, I become more impressed with the team's commitment to the plan. Time will tell but I really hope the new GM knows what he is doing (as I'm sure we all do). As for now, I'm extremely excited about the talent they are accumulating. It's starting to feel like the early 2000's again.
-
Oh well. This could end up being a blessing in disguise. Wheeler worried me and Carlos is having a bit of a down year. Maybe next year the Brewers can get even more for Gomez.

Does anyone else feel lucky to be able to support a team with a name that can be typed with one hand?

Ryan Braun - Worst Contract in Franchise History?
Beast Light replied to JJHardy7's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Was Braun disciplined or found to have violated the program at that point? Not sure as to why he would be subjected to this during the 2012 season if he won his appeal. -
Ryan Braun - Worst Contract in Franchise History?
Beast Light replied to JJHardy7's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I think the Ryan Braun situation is pretty concerning and I don't think we can assume his production in 2012 came without the use of PEDs. It's entirely possible that he had used PEDs for his entire career. He could have easily tested positive due to a rare combination of error on his part while being randomly selected for testing. Many players have used PEDs and, relatively speaking, very few have been caught. If Braun was aware of a mistake on his part that directly led to the positive test and was confident that he could avoid making the mistake in the future, why would he stop using? Up until that point, he could have made it his entire career without testing positive. To me, there is one point in time where we can be fairly certain that he stopped using PEDs - when Anthony Bosch's clinic was busted and shut down. Unfortunately for Braun and the Brewers, this point in time also marks a dramatic change in the level of his production. I think the PEDs impacted his performance far more than a lot people want to believe. He is 31, seems to be getting injured with increased frequency and has been performing miserably when on the field. There is nothing good about this situation. I'm not sure if this will go down as the worst Brewers contract ever but I think it will easily wind up in the top 3. -
Good read. Thanks for sharing! Not to go too far off-topic but Chipper is one of the first players that I remember watching as a rookie. In otherwords, he will be one of the greats from "my day". When he retires, I sure am going to feel old! It's good to see that players seem to like Braun.
-
I will agree with your disagreement. In addition to what you mentioned, just look at Barry Bonds. His bat speed was quicker in his late 30's than it was in his mid 20's. Quicker bat speed, improved eye sight and quicker reaction time would all have to improve your ability to make contact. As mentioned earlier, once contact is made, deep fly balls go out of the park, grounders that the SS would otherwise get to have enough mustard to sneak into the outfield ..etc. There is a reason Barry Bonds was able to hit .358 over the seasons in which he was 37, 38 and 39 years old. His batting average up until that point, throwing out his rookie season in which he hit .223, was .295.

A spokesman for Braun confirmed the positive test Saturday and issued a statement: "There are highly unusual circumstances surrounding this case which will support Ryan's complete innocence and demonstrate there was absolutely no intentional violation of the program. While Ryan has impeccable character and no previous history, unfortunately, because of the process we have to maintain confidentiality and are not able to discuss it any further, but we are confident he will ultimately be exonerated." What is the "case" that they are referring to? The case is testing positive for PED's. Also, notice state the goal is to demonstrate that there wer no "intentional" violations of the program? We all know that testing positive does mean 100%, without a doubt, that a person used PED's. With the information that we have though, it is very safe to say that Braun took a test and it turned up positive. If you still don't believe his camp confirmed a positve test, I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.
-
So now you are hoping Braun's camp confirmed testing positive and claimed they would prove his innocence even though MLB didn't find that he tested positive? OK, there is some serious denial taking place. Don't know what else to say about this...
-
Braun tested positive for a PED. We have two sources: 1. ESPN 2. Braun's own camp
-
What did a reporter say that is either in doubt or being disputed? What did a reporter say that should not be believed? He failed the PED test, his camp even confirmed it. I really cannot believe the denial that I am reading in this thread. If this was Albert Pujols, everyone would be casting stones left and right ....probably claiming that without the cheating, the Brewers would have been in the World Series.
