  1. Interesting that Yost sat Braun but not Fielder. Well, go Dillon!
  2. Well, if you have club level seats you don't need passes at all. The passes are just if your seats are somewhere else in the stadium.
  3. Can anyone explain to me why the New York fans would boo Shouse's 'injury'?
  4. Wow, getting both Hammond and Carlisle would be a real boon. Good hire Senator.
  5. Bud Selig just called me and explained that Gameday backs up sometimes because the internet is a series of tubes. Just a head's up.
  6. I think it's becoming clearer and clearer that Cameron will replace Gross and Gallardo will replace McThrow. Personally, I consider those considerable upgrades.
  7. I recommend a French Press. It's very easy. It doesn't break. The coffee is less bitter. And, it's cheap. We've been using that for the last couple of years and wouldn't go back to an electronic machine.
  8. I've been to a few games alone when I was traveling. It's actually quite relaxing to just sit back and enjoy a baseball game.
  9. The thing I liked about Chicago and Wisconsin drivers is you could generally tell what they are thinking. Chicago/Illinois drivers tend to be highly aggressive, and Wisconsin drivers tend to be fairly conservative. Minnesota drivers OTOH, are idiots and true scourges of the road. As someone who drove back and forth from La Crosse many many times, I would agree with this assessment. Wisconsin drivers are generally mild-mannered and make conservative mistakes. Illinois drivers are battle-scarred and reckless, but if you get out of the left lane quickly their boat-towing Escalades can be avoided. Minnesota drivers are entirely unpredictable and generally awful.
  10. I personally have to disagree and think you are dramatically wrong on this one. In a thirty year span, Milwaukee has transformed from a rust-belt manufacturing city to a textbook example of new urbanist development. The old warehouse district has been turned into a high-end loft living area. One of the world's premier architects has built a masterpiece on our lakefront as his first major American work. A handful of new luxury condo skyscrapers has started to dot the horizon. A freeway stub was removed, making way for billions of dollars in new downtown development. A former brewery has secured plans to revamp into a historical gem mixed-use development. A polluted valley and former home to the nation's 'toolbox' has been cleaned and turned into a park and light industrial system. Our baseball team has built one of the finest parks in the country and Harley Davidson chose downtown Milwaukee for a bike museum. We have a system of riverwalks and parks that is the envy of most cities. The city continues to house a world-class zoo and natural history museum. We have low commute times, and a generally high quality of life. Also, we have probably the greatest festival grounds and ethnics festivals of any major urban center. For anyone who grew up in or around old Milwaukee, the city's turn around is nothing short of miraculous. I would argue that this is exactly how to run a city.
  11. I think one of the special opportunities for this team in particular is the ability to reach out to young AA children that are interested in baseball. It's been well documented that the percentage of black players has been declining. The Brewers have a rare group of young, talented, black role models in Fielder, Hall, & Weeks. Not many teams can say that. I'm hoping they make an impact.
  12. Just a great day to be out at the park, and what a great effort by the club. I feel spoiled.
  13. I'll be in 405 as well, I'll keep my eyes peeled for a lime green brewerfan.net shirt. Should be a great afternoon for baseball.
  14. Hey, it's not 07 Villy is needed as a starter now. At least McThrow will get some game action this week.
  15. Brewers tickets... that's all I can divulge.
  16. That curve looks like what we would expect most of the time, but it's fascinating to see it displayed like that. Thank you Russ. I wonder if any other pitchers start out a bit higher and have a consistent downward trend.
  17. Yeah, but Cordero wouldn't have taken a one-year deal. I think that's the key. We'll need some money for the young stars in the coming years.
  18. It's cute isn't it. Don't.... stop.... beeelieving.
  19. Upgrading Flash takes like 30 seconds. No big deal.
  20. Yeah, I don't agree with the President's political positions, but I respect the American Presidency. It was not cool to boo. Add this to the rules: Never boo a head of state.
  21. Actually, it's Iceland Air the whole way. Maybe we'll get some gum at the airport, that should stem a few foreclosures... I imagine that you are going to pay an American airline somewhere along the way. Possibly buy new luggage or clothing for the trip.
  22. So, we were thinking of going to Iceland with our check... I'm guessing Bush didn't think we'd be stimulating Iceland's economy. They seem like a good ally though... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  23. Ah, ESPN.... How I loathe thee. -------------------- Zimmerman at #6?! Cano at #11!? Longoria at #20!? God knows I would take Ian 'frickin Kinsler over Prince Fielder... This list sucks...
  24. Props to the Jack Daniels mustard... We have 5: - Yellow Mustard (for guests) - Dijon Mustard - Jack Daniels Hickory - Chipotle Mustard - Horseradish Mustard
