  1. Escobar made a similar play on the line drive and still managed to get off a strong throw. To 2nd..... Apples to oranges?
  2. McGehee is an awful defender. He made a fantastic play in the 1st inning.
  3. Jeff Kellogg needs new glasses. Calling that a ball is absolute garbage.
  4. 5-1 BC now, with them dominating Miami. Two stunningly disappointing years in a row for Miami.
  5. They used to laugh at us when we said Brantley "might" be the bigger loss. Who were "they," exactly?
  6. Ok, we're at the point where this idea has probably run its course.
  7. BTW: what do some here THINK the "reactions" will be within a post entitled "after 2 games". It's a fan forum, for god's sake. But one where stuff like this is really frowned upon, for the record.
  8. Giant spoiler alert for those that didn't/don't watch the previews..... Didn't Charles Logan die several seasons ago?
  9. I wonder if Jim Paschke knows that their broadcast is being hated all over the state right now. Oh, and they're on in place of the Brewers too.
  10. Holy freaking crap.... this is going to be a heck of a finish.
  11. You can feel this one teetering on the verge of Duke pulling away, but Butler continues to hang with them. Butler is clanking way too many inside shots after getting to the rim.
  12. Well, if Butler's going to win this thing, might as well do it in a major underdog-story vs a powerhouse that will make for a nice movie in 20 years.
  13. No, it is pretty much just annoyance. It is very rare for an April Fools Joke to be funny or clever and this is no exception, especially when the same person does the same lame April Fools Joke. Yep, totally missed that one. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  14. Point taken, but Grissom and Hammond's contracts combined don't add up to what Suppan's deal. But Suppan's deal was given during the height of free agent spending (especially for pitchers), so that point is completely apples to oranges. As such, the deals to those two were at a point where the team's payroll was 1/4 to 1/3 of what it is now, meaning that they crippled a franchise that already wasn't spending much money. While the team wasn't competitive as you said, the contracts were bigger albatrosses that may have completely destroyed any slim chance they had at even being decent. By the way, 'productive' is a relative term in my view. Well, by the expected definition Suppan at least lived up to his 'serviceable innings-eater' billing in 2007. It's funny that you mention Grissom, because he never took the heat that he should have. I think that this is largely true on the whole, but he was pretty despised here (and at the old ESPN board prior to that ).
  15. To the fellows who were "annoyed" by the clearly funny April Fools joke.........lighten up, Francis! Geez, stop taking yourself so seriously! ? I went back through the thread and didn't see anyone who seemed upset by this?
  16. In my opinion, next to Bando's idiotic move not to offer Molitor a fair contract, the Suppan signing is the second biggest mistake in team history. You're clearly not giving Marquis Grissom or Jeffrey Hammonds their due. At least Suppan was productive for a portion of his contract.
  17. If Google can be trusted (and when could it be otherwise?), that would be at the Village Green in Middleton. That is correct. I had a business lunch there a couple of years ago, and remember the food being really good.
  18. Can we give a guy at least until May before we have a melt down on him? I didn't know that MLB players were not allowed to have an off-season. For the record, though, his 2008 second half was absolutely dismal. He's in the midst of 1.5 regular seasons of awfulness, along with a bad spring.
  19. I certainly agree, but it's not as if tournaments in NCAA sports historically don't bring in big dollars
  20. I continue to be completely mystified at how often in sports stuff that works real well as they are are subject to meddling in the name of "making things better" somehow, while a completely disfunctional disaster like the BCS is untouchable.
  21. 2 minute clip of his speech from wwe.com: http://www.wwe.com/conten...2010/march22-28/13931826
  22. 2nd OT just underway....
  23. Also, I don't really understand bragging for the Big Ten when their only semi-regular representative in the Elite Eight/Final Four is Michigan St. The point being responded to was clearly that the Big Ten would be irrelevant in the tourney, despite the fact that they seemingly put a team in the Final Four every year. Not to mention, the post clearly slams MSU's team. And for the record, in the last 10 years, the Big Ten has put 5 different teams into the Final Four, two teams into the same Final Four twice, and 4 different teams into 5 championship games.
  24. There's that irrelevant Big Ten putting a team in the Final Four yet again.....
  25. Frozen Four!
