  1. Is Tbadder begging to get into a flame war, or what?
  2. I think it's way too early to pencil in spots four and five in the rotation, yet. Spring training is going to decide how things shake out, I'm guessing.
  3. Steve "Mongo" McMichael is the head coach of the Chicago Slaughter, so at least there's some correlation there with Gilbert Brown.
  4. Yeah, I definitely wouldn't want to run up against that thing, personally.
  5. Actually, I was going to say...way up north where my in-laws live, the DNR is known to occasionally deny the existence of certain wild life in the area, including, if I'm not mistaken, cougars.
  6. I'm not sure if anyone would really want to see a cougar up close...they've been known to attack and even kill humans occasionally.
  7. Supposedly the Orioles' current GM only took the job because Angelos promised he wouldn't meddle...well, guess what seems to be happening again?
  8. Has anyone heard if he has even actually done any baseball related activities since his accident on the field? The last I heard, it was "no."
  9. The whole vibe I've gotten from this is that it could very well have been an accidentall overdose.
  10. I pretty much agree with Joe Hova, though I don't live in the Milwaukee area so I can't really comment. I think all the snow over the past couple months is just putting some people on edge.
  11. Interesting list. I would say, five years ago, Milwaukee probably would be a lock to be on the list. However, with the Brewers getting more respectable and being viewed as a contender, and the recent college basketball success, the city is probably safe from being really considered.
  12. Yeah...I don't think anyone is seriously worrying much about the Cubs or Cardinals games in the near future. Brewers fans will be out in droves.
  13. I don't know why people have to be in such a rush on days like that. If you're late for work, you're late. Employers, at least in my experience, are usually somewhat lenient if the snow is affecting everyone.
  14. masauction, I would say there's a pretty big difference between a jersey worn by A-Rod, and one worn by a somewhat well-known player in his first or second year. Good for you on your "investment" paying off, though. I still could not see paying anywhere close to that for any of those jerseys, but if someone has that kind of disposable income to spend on something that makes them happy, then good for them.
  15. I love when eBay auctioneers get some semi-unique item and think it automatically qualifies them for a small fortune.
  16. Dibble does seem to be quite anti-Selig for whatever reason, but overall I really enjoy him and Kennedy. They do talk about all 30 teams, which is more than you can say about a lot of places. Of course they touch on the big stories quite a bit, but if a trade happens involving, say, the Kansas City Royals and Tampa Bay Devil Rays, they will discuss it.
  17. The bench doesn't really bother me. Frankly, I think the Brewers will end up with a better bench than quite a bit of the NL this coming year. I think the key is just that Yost doesn't go platoon happy, or have Counsell getting 400 ABs.
  18. I would actually probably be OK (if slightly nervous) will all those moves, except trading Braun. I think Braun, Fielder, and Gallardo are my only three that I would consider completely untouchable at this point. Would love to see Laird and Kearns on the Brewers.
  19. Just what I was thinking. I wouldn't call myself strapped for cash, but paying $175 is a lot more affordable to me than taking a week off from work, paying for plane tickets, hotel accommodations, etc.
  20. I know it's just something someone recorded on a camcorder or something, but that clip with DLR singing "Jump" didn't really impress me at all. I didn't think they sounded that tight, and it's clear Roth doesn't have the range he used to (as mentioned elsewhere). Also, I know he's a Van Halen, but I wouldn't be anxious to see a 16 year old playing bass with a major rock band. Michael Anthony is awesome.
  21. I have had XM for about a year, and really like it. I do a lot of driving during the week, so it is nice to have something in the car other than the standard conservative talk/classic rock/local sports stations. I like the alternative music stations, as it's something broader than just listening to my own CDs or MP3s. I think my favorite is MLB on XM, though. The talk on their is VERY good in regards to baseball, and they actually talk about all the teams, not just Yankees/Red Sox. The model I have allows you to take the radio from your car to inside, though you have to buy a separate adapter to hook it up to your stereo. One concern might be the audio quality as well...my car doesn't have a cassette player or auxiliary input jack on the stereo, so I have to go through the FM adapter. It sounds OK...but sometimes the music sounds like low quality MP3 (or like a cassette that has been dubbed one too many times, to use another analogy). If you can hook the XM tuner directly to your stereo somehow, I think you tend to get better audio quality.
  22. Well, he had a .901 OPS last year, but it was only over 58 games. What kind of injury did he have last year? He's also younger than I thought, only 27. I think he doesn't excite me that much...I would rather have Rolen's veteran presence at this point.
  23. The bottom line is the Brewers have a bunch of young guys still learning to play their positions at the MLB level. It takes more than a season, sometimes, for a player to make the step up defensively. I couldn't imagine Hardy moving to 3B, at least any time soon. He's basically the Brewers best infielder, defensively.
  24. Rotoworld has mention of a possible Giants/Yankees deal involving Matsui, but it sounds like it's pretty early in talks.
  25. Wouldn't mind having "Godzilla" at all. I'll probably get flamed for suggesting this, but how about a deal involving Ben Sheets for Matsui? (Obviously, with other players involved).
