  1. We have a lot in common.
  2. I'd say... Oh, you got so much going for you, going right. But I know at 16 it's hard to see past Friday night. I wish you'd study Spanish, I wish you'd take a typing class. I wish you wouldn't worrry, let it be. Just have a little faith and you'll see. That's what I'd say if I could write a letter to me.
  3. Well he sent that second HR about 450 feet the other way tonight. That doesn't happen without good bat speed.
  4. I'm 0-1 with one K in my career against Zimmermann. That was my senior year of high school. We were in the same conference. Pretty crazy to see the small town Wisconsin kid.
  5. Gotta give the Brewers props for making free and discounted tickets readily available for the less financially able fan. Things like the BP giveaway make a free ticket attainable for pretty much any fan who wants one.
  6. Yeah, they were up 3-2. So far so good, though. They have the lead yet in the top of the 9th. Zimmie should get the win if Hanrahan can hold them.
  7. Well they just pinch hit for their pitcher with runners on 2nd and 3rd with two outs in the bottom of the 6th. They put in Alex frickin Cintron who flied out to center. Their starter had 72 pitches, 51 for strikes and the only runs he gave up came on a 2-run homerun to Matt Diaz. It was Wisconsin native, Jordan Zimmermann, making his ML debut. If their bullpen blows this, I'd be disgusted as a Nat's fan. BTW, Zimmermann was pumping fastballs in at 94/95 all night. Very nice slider, curve and even a nice change or 2. Looks like they might have something to look forward to anyway. After cooling down and taking off my Jordan Zimmermann fan club glasses, I realize that it wasn't such a dumb move, especially if it works. That said, I'd have kept him in. He was really cruising the last few innings.
  8. I still get a bit apprehensive when big storm warnings come out. I have this fear of being stuck driving somewhere or some other crap like that during a tornado. I guess that's a lot better than the paralyzing fear I used to have even when I was home during a severe thunderstorm/tornado warning.
  9. That video reminds me of the "Zap Rap" that we watched in grade school at some point making us aware that electricity can kill you. I'll have to youtube that one, too. Me and a friend still refer to the "Zap Rap" occasionally. I'm not even going to pretend to be able to contribute to the information of this thread outside of that, except for that every time I read about this thing I imagine suddenly being dead from being condensed into a black hole.
  10. I'm just trying to share with folks that there are other options out there for living other than the cold and snow.Really that's all? So then you think we are all ignorant morons with no knowledge of different climates and locations?
  11. Why not put him in the bullpen right now? I wonder if Nick Nuegebauer, JM Gold, Mike Jones...etc. could have been excellent contributors in the big leagues if they had been moved to the bullpen at some point.
  12. Gamel goes 1-4 to drop his average to a lowly .500. Are we sure this kid is legit?
  13. What about Dr. Strangelove?
  14. The incentive would be that Bill Hall still sucks against RHP (so far this year, which matches his past performance) and Gamel clearly rakes against RHP. We'd have a much more balanced lineup against righties.
  15. Comparing Yo's leash to Suppan's is just ridiculous even to make a point about knee-jerk reactions.
  16. Charter carries WMLW? Is that only in Milwaukee?
  17. Left analog toward the base that the runner you want to advance is occupying. Then hit the button to advance the runner to the next base (left analog to the left to conrol a runner on 3rd, X to advance the runner home or square to go back to third).
  18. I felt the same way. I feared that, even after his seemingly positive initial reaction, he was going to have life threatening complications. Best of luck Joe! Hope you end up with a very successfull campaign in 2009 and beyond!
  19. Disagree a lot on Weeks and Hardy. Hardy looks as natural as anyone; especially defensively. Weeks to me seems quite mechanical. He is a great athlete, but everything from fielding ground balls to hitting looks very coached and mechanical to me. Lacks fluidity.
  20. Yeah, I saw that. The pitching got downgraded pretty hard and the D gets no respect. I wonder if the rating drop has to do with Hoffman being on the DL, since they have moved him to the minors for the time being.
  21. Where did you find that he pitched 110 in '07? I'd have to look for sure, but I'm pretty sure it was 175-180. I'd have no problem with the him going 200 innings this year considering he has had no arm injuries in his past. Just looked. He had 110 innings pitched as a Brewer in '07. He had about 70 innings in the minors before being called up that year, as well.
  22. Nice update. Much easier to read and follow too!
  23. Prince has had his share of jersey grazings too to get on base. I actually thought McClung looked the same, or maybe even in slightly better shape than last year.
  24. I think they are very sweet. Perfect for spring games or cool summer nights.
  25. That's the one I just picked up. It was only 70% off in Wausau and I had no extra discount so I paid $36 plus tax. Still feel like I robbed them.
