    Love the pick for several reasons: -The combination of him being a senior and being picked higher than expected should make him pretty signable, Boras be damned. This will further eliminate the "cheapskate Brewers" mentality; -If he's that good of an athlete, I'm pretty sure he can play LF. Someone else mentioned Carlos Lee, LaPorta has to be better than that; -The guy can flat-out rake. And he led the nation in OBP. I might read Moneyball again tonight just for fun!

    These are absolutely deadly for bass. I've used them all over Southeast WI, in both lakes and the Milwaukee River. I don't even take a tackle box fishing anymore, just a box of hooks and a bag of Yamamotos. Brown seems to work best for me.

    The lemonade/beer concept isn't bad, but its better with a darker beer. Shandy tastes like lemon pledge mixed with Miller Lite. If you like Sunset Wheat, I'd strongly suggest Island Wheat from Capitol Brewery (not sure how easy it is to get if you're outside WI).

    If he were a BF.net poster he would have gone with haiku.

    Glad to hear you're ok. Maybe Alderman McGee can help you track down the guy.

    So that's why he kept asking me if I was the keymaster...

    This is outstanding. He can't possibly beat this, can he?

    Tell me about it. I live in his district, so I guess that makes me one of his constituents (shudder). Its unreal - during the recall, I didn't meet one person who even had anything marginally good to say about McGee, yet he beat the recall by a wide margin. The problem is that I live in the Lakefront Brewery area of his district. My whole neighborhood is condos, most of which are owned by young professionals. The problem is that most of his district is west of me and most of those people are fiercely loyal to him. He's constantly in the news and (I think) makes them feel as though their representative is always being vocal for their benefit. You should see the "district updates" he sends out. Anything good happening in the city is because of him, anything bad is because the city council / mayor / police department didn't do what he wanted. Their were some very good candidates in the recall election, ones that would actually help his district. Hopefully this will be the final straw and we'll actually be able to elect one of them. My worst nightmare is that McGee Jr. gets removed from office and McGee Sr. decides to get back into politics. He'd win. The kicker - McGee rents an apartment in my side of the district. So while he appeals to and "fights for" the people living in Milwaukee's poorest neighborhoods, he quietly lives on my lily-white street.

    I don't think a Gwynn/Mench package would draw a lot of interest. Not too many teams are looking for two outfielders. I suppose it could be part of a bigger package, but I think its much more likely Mench gets packaged with a pitcher or just traded for a minor-leaguer.

    A lot of teams asking "how much salary you gonna eat?"

    Link I don't want this to turn into a debate on unnecessary lawsuits, but come on. I can see suing the restaurant, and I suppose that includes the restaurant manager. But going after the tow truck company and driver and the driver of the disabled car on the side of the road? I guess the suit against the cel phone company is next, then maybe the guy who sold him the weed. What about the hookup he was talking to on the phone? I'm sure she shares some liability, too. Maybe that shouldn't be in blue...

    I won a Yount bobble at an event tonight, its the full-size 2006 version, he's in the old, early 70's uniform. I don't collect bobbleheads, so I have two questions: What's this going for these days? Anyone want to buy it?

    I've got 2 in section 103, they're either row 2 or row 3 (I don't remember and don't have them in front of me). $16/each face, I'll sell them for less than that, PM me.

    I've got two blues. I'm not too picky, make me an offer and one or both are yours.

    If Melvin does deal Capellan (and I don't think he will), I don't think we should expect too much. Capellan hasn't done that much, and as a basis for comparison the Jays traded Francisco Rosario to the Phillies for $100k. Granted Rosario's out of options, but he's a decent prospect and like Capellan, he's only 26. I think we could do better than that, but there is a big distance between "cash considerations" and "legitimate prospect."

    I could go for some broom bristles tonight...
