  1. Man Bill Hall is just having a terrible year.
  2. When I worked at Pick 'n' Save during high school we all feared Bag Lady. She was an old woman who would shop once a month and buy like $400 worth of groceries, then demand double paper in double plastic. Then she would inspect each bag before leaving the line. Not really a story about etiquette as much as a story about crazy.
  3. Oh man Phelps just one by a hundreth of a second! Was losing the whole way. The guy is nuts.
  4. Again, Yost refuses to pinch hit for Kendall trailing late in a close game.
  5. Hm, I would have figured the Brewers would have been bigger dogs than that, actually.
  6. I came on here to mention that Howard article too. Your MJS Sports Editor, ladies and gentlemen.
  7. I was hoping for 90 wins as well. They're on pace to exceed that, so I'd be very happy with it. I'm not going to pretend like I wouldn't be crushed if they missed the playoffs with, say, 92 wins, but I personally expected 90 to be good enough for the playoffs this season. I'll be elated if they make the playoffs. Like Ennder said, anything can happen once you get in, so that's all that matters.
  8. Wow, that Witrado draft pick question has me dumbfounded. TH is uptight and unprofessional, but Witrado makes him look like a Pulitzer winner.
  9. The play thing is dumb, but overall I'm blown away by how much cooler the game is on PS3 than PS2. I just bought PS3 this year and wasn't sure what to expect from Madden. I like the create-your-own skill level feature, and it just seems the amount of options/commands to play before and during a play are much greater. This is only after playing two games though, so I don't have a great idea of it yet.
  10. Agreed, but I think we have a better chance of seeing Tony Gwynn Sr. in left this series. Yost won't start Branyan over Counsell at third, so why would he put him in left over Kapler?
  11. I love the "top secret rotation" term. I'm not sure I'd like Sabathia and Sheets pitching on 5 days every time no matter what, only because they tend to throw more innings. The concern is more for Sheets than Sabathia I admit. Sheets' last start came on six days rest (you decide if it was this, the Nats' offense or just coincidence for Ben turning it around). If the Brewers can open up a bit of a lead on the wildcard over the next couple weeks it might give them the luxury to rest someone here and there. I'm concerned about Parra's innings as well.
  12. A great illustration was made yesterday on how bad this is when it was pointed out in the game thread that the loss of production from Branyan to Counsell at third is greater than the loss of production from Braun to Kapler in left.
  13. I almost want Counsell to go for the sombrero. Edit: Hey, hooray for two more runs! Sad face for two more ensuing Counsell starts.
  14. 0-16 and counting for the superior option to Branyan.
  15. Mock racked up some Ks, but that also racked up his pitch count. This will be his last inning, if he can even get out of it.
  16. Dunn in right field? How can Arizona possibly have an outfielder worse than him to the point where they can't move someone else to right?
  17. If Fernando Tatis can resurrect a dead career, why couldn't we catch lightning in a bottle with Jay Gibbons? Light blue, because I guess I'm only half joking.
  18. Kapler hitting third, Counsell hitting sixth. Which team is the terrible one again? Couldn't tell by today's lineup.
  19. How would you like to be Sweden? You break the world record, yet finish fifth.
  20. Wow, freaking amazing relay race. Americans pulled it out in the last second after trailing the whole way.
  21. Ben, you see that? It's not your fault. I know... No you don't. It's not your fault. I know. No. Listen to me son. It's not your fault. I know that. It's not your fault. It's not your fault.
  22. Yeah, but I don't think they were trying to hide anything. Seems to me they actually thought he was fine.
  23. What exactly wasn't disclosed about the Gallardo injury? The news was released the following day.
  24. Ohhh beat you to it trwi. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
