    If I know this organization, we delayed delivery of them until mid-May for free shipping rather than paying for expedited to get them this week.

    Cheating? Are they using bats the we don’t have access to?
  3. adambr2
    Like that.

    For most organizations, in this day and age, 5 million dollars is nothing more than a rounding error. For the Brewers, they still treat it as a significant investment.

    Everyone still going to complain about the stadium dimensions like we don’t also get awarded a homerun if anyone on our team was capable of pulling a ball 340 feet down the lines.

    Lol man. This team stinks.

    To this organization’s credit, it has long been a stereotype of this team that we’ve been putting 90-95 win teams out there with 75 win talent rosters. It’s entirely possible that one of these years, it’s going to catch up and we’ll be an actual 75 win team.

    This entire rotation is going to be on the IL by May from the constant whiplash of turning their heads around to watch the ball sail out of the yard.

    We are literally setting records for awfulness today … 😂… like what were you expecting?

    Ultimately, even with Devin on the other side, we still Brewered it.

    Good grief Jackson. 5 Ks?
  12. adambr2
    Man, have yourself a day Chourio.

    I’d also like to add that I would like to target at least one player on day 3 with the sole intention of being a core special teams player. We’ve been going square peg into round hole with our special teams for years and just throwing the bottom of the depth chart out there for that unit and this approach has not been successful at all.

    It’s tough to predict the 1st this year as it feels like just about everything is a need. They need more on the interior of both lines. They need LBs. They need corners. They need receivers. They need edge rushers. They don’t need TEs, safeties, and you could argue they are set at RB, though a day 2 or 3 pick addition wouldn’t shock me. If Malik doesn’t go anywhere, they’re probably fine at QB. Out on a limb, I think the Packers are going to trade down out of the 1st and try to target two extra picks in rounds 2-4. Something like #23 for #38 and #69. I’ll disclaim this by saying I think if McMillan is available at #23, they’ll just pull the trigger and not trade down. But I don’t think he will be.

    It’s ironic that out of the three major Wisconsin sports teams, the Bucks are clearly the worst run organization, with the Brewers being the best (I certainly don’t agree with everything they do, and I have my suspicions on how financially invested Mark A is in the team relative to himself these days, but it’s clearly commendable how they manage to contend as a small market in a league dominated by money) — yet of the three Wisconsin sports teams, the Bucks are the only one to break through and win a championship in this era. The obvious, and only correct answer to that irony is Giannis.
  16. adambr2
    I never thought Giannis would grow into an 80% FT shooter… but I also didn’t think he was going to devolve into becoming Shaq.

    The cost per year isn’t really indicative of what the first year costs are, though. Just because a high end WR might get 30M a year and you have 30M of cap space doesn’t mean that’s what you can spend. Almost every NFL contract is backloaded with smaller cap hits in the early years. Case in point, Josh Sweat only has a $7.3 million cap hit for 2025. Chris Godwin (and yes I know he took less money to stay with Tampa), less than $13M for 2025.
  18. adambr2
    It sure felt like the narrative a month or so ago was that this was the offseason that the Packers finally had money to spend in free agency.
  19. adambr2
    Signing a nickel corner is really stretching the definition of urgency. Those are the same routine offseason moves that everyone makes. If he had made the comment a year ago and then gone out to sign Jacobs and McKinney as he did I would be more inclined to agree.

    Well, as far as Love goes, my point wasn’t to say that he’s a failed pick (though I’m probably a little less certain of him being the franchise QB of the next 10 years than I was a year ago), but to point out, having him sit multiple years required us to pay him franchise QB top dollar money after very little on field production. There was hardly any rookie QB contract to take advantage of. As far as the other examples, you stated repeatedly that it’s hard to find certain instant production late in the 1st, which may be fair, but the main examples of the 1st round projects in Gary and LVN, weren’t late 1st round picks. In the case of LVN there were certainly other, better prospects available with a better chance to contribute in their rookie seasons. Christian Gonzalez and Broderick Jones being the two most obvious examples.

    Well, it was stated even before the 2nd half that if we lost by 3 or less, that particularly play would loom large. That’s exactly what ended up happening. I do understand that you can’t just subtract 3 points from BYU’s score and state that we would have won 89-88 without the play, though.
  22. adambr2
    You know what would have guaranteed that they did NOT make a shot? Holding for last possession. An 8 point halftime deficit, against any team, is not a death knell. Given how the half went, I think it’s something that they could have felt good about. Hold for the last shot and your only deficit options at the half were 8, 6, or 5, any of which they could have lived with. There was nothing aggressive about the approach at the end of the first half. It was just bad situational awareness and bad clock management. Play good defense after making the shot? They didn’t play good defense after missing the shot, so why would the result have been any different?. I’d counter that if the solution was as simple as “play good defense so they have a low percentage shot”, we wouldn’t have given up 91 points.
  23. adambr2
    Who cares if you don’t get a good look with 1-2 seconds left? Even if you get no look at all you’re still only down 8. The whole point of holding for last shot is that it’s you score or nobody scores. You never want to give up that extra possession. Last possession in a half isn’t about finding the best look you can sometime in the last 30 seconds. It’s about ensuring that it is indeed actually the last possession. This is true in most circumstances, but especially in a game where you fought hard to at least be within striking distance at halftime and don’t want to do something careless just prior to kill the momentum.
  24. adambr2
    Did they have a timeout? That whole sequence was mostly on Gard, to me.
  25. adambr2
    I can handle the loss with the exception of the 3 points and possession that they just gave away for no reason at the end of the first half. That's what makes it hurt to me.
