  1. Sweet. That rule never made much sense to me anyways.
  2. I believe the problem is that, if you decline the option on a player, you cannot resign said player till May 1. And there is no way the Brewers will be picking up that big option for 2008.
  3. That was the first game I've ever been at that actually brought a tear to my eye. He's been loyal to the franchise for over a decade, and its really sad that he'll be gone just as we will be making our run (hopefully). He's been a class act, and for years was the only Brewer I truly enjoyed watching. Thanks for the memories Geoff, and I'm sorry you had to spend your years toiling alongside the likes of Alex Sanchez and Jeffrey Hammonds. Here's hoping you catch on with a contender and get to experience the playoffs with somebody.
  4. sin(3 pi / 2)
  5. I declined to take the awesome washcloth at the door. I can't believe they didn't slap some corny "We Believe" statement or a Brewer logo on that thing somewhere.
  6. I had a conversation with a random fan on the walk back to the car yesterday, about Yost. Now, while I'm not a huge fan, this guy was trying to convice me that Yost cost us 25 games this year. Random fan: "He always leaves in Turnbow after a walk! That alone is like 15 games." Me: "Turnbow has had a rough season, but what is his alternative? What would you have done? The bullpen has been horrid, except for Cordero, and Shouse for a time." Random fan: "25 games! We could have clinched in early September!" Me: "Yea, but what was Ned's alternative?" RF: "They gotta fire that bum!" Me: gives up The thing about firing Yost, at least in my mind, is that he seems to have a great relationship with the young players (also know as our core), and there is no possible way we could know what goes on behind the scenes during games. Maybe Gross had drank some water laced with crypto when he sent Mench in to pinch hit against the righty. There is just no way we have all the information at our disposal that he does. That said, I'm not sure keeping him or firing him makes a difference anyways. Maybe we just need to hire some former CIA agent to keep an eye on our team on the road to make sure they actually take a nap between games.
  7. Even though the results may not be what I had hoped for, this has been the most fun I've had following September baseball ever. And I'm ok with going through the cycle on a daily basis. It is nice to still be heavily interested.
  8. I went so far as to create a new account, and that briefly worked. However, now both accounts are giving me errors. I think I did something to anger Mr. Yuku.
  9. Just tried the chat room again (to test), and I am still getting the wrong password message. I've tried clearing out my internetz files, as well as actually changing my password. Help?
  10. Once again, I am getting wrong password error messages.... hopefully this doesn't mean I actually have to pay attention to SQL class.
  11. Close. O-Chem ruins lives.
  12. Craig Counsell. Hart seems like the logical choice, maybe Braun 2nd. Either way, I like the speed aspect of beating out something in the infield. And, of course, only half kidding about Counsell, who only seems to do something well with the WS on the line.
  13. Another thing to keep in mind with repossessed vehicles is that, if the owner is unable to pay the loan, they are highly unlikely to be able to pay for the proper maintenance, causing the vehicle to break down way earlier than it should. Ever hear the sound of a Toyota Corolla getting its first oil change at 25,000 miles? It sounded like a ping-pong game.
  14. The gf playing Super Mario Bros. in quarter-speed. You don't need to kill everything. The fast music should never make an appearance on 1-1.
  15. I heard on the Clark Howard show the other day (yea... listening to the radio all day turns you to talk) that Buick was actually named the most reliable car this past year, with Honda and Toyota both falling to 7th and 8th. My theory on this is that the type of car you purchase has less to do with its reliability as the quality of care you give your car. If you are religious with oil changes, filter changes, transmission and coolant flushes, etc., you will have a good car. My theory on Toyota and Honda's fall has less to do with the quality of their cars and more with the demographic of those purchasing them (Civics and Corollas are considered somewhat cool by youngins). I worked at an oil change for 7 years (through HS and college) and the cars that lasted the longest were those that we saw the most (frequent, timely service). If you like a Hyundai or Kia (they are the same car), I'd say go for it.
  16. I just tried to get in, and was successful. Thanks!
  17. I did that, and still am getting the error.
  18. Menotti, I got the same message. Not happy.
  19. I keep getting a wrong password error message when I try to enter the chat.... Am I alone?
  20. The only appropriate action is to hook up the xbox 360 to the hospital tv.
  21. SNES Bowser in the smiley-face hovercraft.
  22. Just wait for spring training in Florida!
  23. Glad you folks got to see a good game. Sorry I couldn't be there. Brian and Hawing, I owe you folks some Black Bear next time I see you.
  24. I'm really sorry folks, but Black Bear and I will not be there. Somehow, I decided that bronchitis would be fun for the pennant drive. Hawing, let me know if you can't get rid of your 2 extras, and I'll pay you for them (seeing as you held them for me).
