  1. I couldn't stand Schroeder until this past year. He is much better with Anderson in the booth with him. Good riddance Sutton.
  2. I'm a lifelong King fan. My favorites of his were done in the 90's with Bag of Bones, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, and Hearts in Atlantis. His work since then has seemed to be an attempt to get back to his roots instead of pushing forward with the soulful storytelling. I haven't enjoyed that ride. As far as the Dark Tower series, I thought he actually lost the story after I and II. The Waste Lands was a waste to me. He recaptured something with Wizard and Glass, and then promptly (or not so promptly) lost it again. The end of the story was what it had to be. I think he was just playing out the string.
  3. I'd guess 100% sarcasm, and pretty funny if you read it that way.
  4. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b125/greeg32/antone_williamson_autograph.jpg edit: good pull split--I'll find a new one...although check out my post count.....spooky! here's a good one: sweep suits I was at all 3 of those games, great fun, but afterwards? Ugghhh! http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b125/greeg32/curt624.jpg
  5. That would be a bad idea. The threat of suspension would be enough to scare others without wasting 50 games of Salome's development you would think. More likely the league will use him as another example to other prospects throughout the minor leagues that there cannot be any mistakes about what you put in your body...no excuses. Salome is my favorite brewer prospect. Met him once and he was a great guy even to a joe schmo like me. I hope it was a misunderstanding of some sort.
  6. So this is what it feels like to try to win now...Geno is going to love this trade.
  7. In my very much younger and more precocious years I once hit Pat Listach with a jolly rancher; however I was aiming for Doug Henry. I still can't figure out why Listach was in the bullpen...

  9. The way the draft fell, this was the best pick the bucks could make. I'm OK on Yi, but am hoping for a good trade.
  10. I am sick of Mench
  11. I think most of us think he'll be gone...at least I am. As I research players further, my big board is shaping up like this: Oden Durant Horford Conley Green Yi Wright Brewer The last 4 are really close if not equal in my mind.
  12. www.winronline.org/index.html
  13. I'm leaning toward Conley as well, although I'd be happy with Wright, Green, or Brewer. Mo just doens't make his teammates around him better. Conley would not be a downgrade this year (or not much of one), and is a much better prospect IMO.
  14. I started listening to Phish in highschool, but started loving them after my roommate in college turned me on to them (he is Trey Anastasio's step brother). Phish is tough to get a handle on. Their live shows are extremely hit or miss (usually depending on how drunk they are). I also think they are better indoors (I've seen them once in each) probably due to the "tighter" acoustics. Their studio work definitely lacks soul, and their live music can definitely be too loose. However, when they are/were on and exploring their boundaries in very structured ways, their music could be amazing. They went at it like scientists and it shows in what they produced. Their stuff is meant to be actively listened to rather than the background music it usually is used as. The music (when right) stimulates the mind more than the heart or the soul for sure.
  15. It was bound to happen...accellerated evolution taking place in the city. I've seen cats waltz up to the street with not a care in the world, look both ways, and bolt across a busy street, then resume strolling on the other side. The squirrels/cats that aren't smart enough to do this are already pancakes http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  16. I'm impressed with what Lebron has done so far, and also with Cleveland's supporting cast; but I have a feeling they will be overmatched by the Spurs. Spurs in 5 (as long as its not fixed http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif )
  17. me too please- greeg32@yahoo.com Thanks!
  18. I would guess the brewers have around an average number of black players in the system. One of the things I hear mentioned is that black players have a lot lower chance of being major league backups than their white peers. So there are higher numbers of black players in the minors for every team that just never make it to the show for an extended period of time unless they are starters/stars.
  19. I thought estrada didn't ever walk? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  20. I wasn't just talking about walk, but rather about strategically pitching out of the strikezone. Sometimes leads to walks, but can also lead to chasing, strikeouts, and weak hits.
  21. There are probably a certain amount of ball/walks that it is OK/better to have though, especially against less disciplined lineups. Our #'s of homeruns given up will probably be pretty high
  22. I think I saw that he will be able to swing away for 2 ab's today. The way this injury is being handled is wierd to me. Either he's better and it's ok, or there is risk and he should wait until there isn't. But then again, my name is not Dr. Greeg.
