  1. So how soon can we swap Parra for Spurling? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  2. Parra with a perfect game for your Nashville Sounds......Congratulations Manny!
  3. It's perfectly acceptable to talk about John Thomson's no hitter for the Royals in the 2nd inning in Anaheim. Huh? I was clearly just foreshadowing all the preperation in the dugout that Fielder was undergoing to hit #27 ..... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  4. Just for the record.....we aren't talking about a certain something going on a certain somewhere......right?
  5. Bench Coach, Then I was the geek in front of you with the green hat on that turned around to share my displeasure for seeing Gross pinch hitting instead of Jenkins. You must not have noticed my brewerfan.net shirt. I was wondering if you were a bf.netter...I had a hunch though, listening to your displeasure for Ned, http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif edit: Hawing, I was just honored to be in the same concourse as a brewerfan.net moderator, I stopped short of asking for an autograph though and just decided on an introduction, though I was nervous that I was pronouncing "Hawing" incorrectly. Hmm, isn't it weird that it sounds like you keep meeting people at the concessions though? Maybe that says something about us. I kid, I kid.
  6. Eh, looks okay....I kind of prefer the retail version better though: http://shop.mlb.com/graphics/product_images/pMLB2-3506255dt.jpg
  7. That house not being in focus really makes me dizzy....but I can't stop staring at it for some reason hoping it will come into focus...yikes, I think I need to go for a walk or something.
  8. Sorry, I should have said "friends and family". As for Hall, not really interested in the white Hall, I already have an extra one myself, really just want the pink Hall (and I'll throw in a few bucks cash).
  9. Captain Obvious: Not exactly stellar numbers for that Astros bullpen.
  10. Bench Coach, Did you happen to be sitting in row 19 seats 1-4ish?
  11. I came across two extra Tony Butler bobbleheads the other night (6/23) when they were given away for the Wisconsin Timberattlers where he is now pitching in the Seattle system. They were given to the first 1,000 fans and are full size. Obviously, Tony was drafted last year out of high school from Oak Creek. I'm looking to trade them for any past Brewers fullsize bobbles. I'm still beginning my collection so rather than post what I am looking for (almost all of them), I'll just ask what you have that you are willing to swap for one (or both). Maybe it's asking too much, but since they were only the first 1,000 and we had to line up 30 minutes in advance (he had over 350 family members there, in line) I'm really looking for a Hall Retro...let me know if we can work something out.
  12. That's about what I figured....I figured the Yount one is...but on billyhall's page it says Piggly Wiggly instead of Geoff Jenkins' name...and this one says Jenkins...so I guess that's where I was confused.... From bhf's "blue book" webpage: http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e378/billyhallfan/Bobble%20Head%25
  13. Hey all, I'm sort of new to the whole bobblehead craze, so some of the older bobbles I'm not too familiar with. I have a guy that is trying to sell me both the 2001 Yount and the 2001 Jenkins....here are pictures of them both...I'm pretty sure the Yount one is the SGA, but I'm afraid the Jenkins one looks like a retail one...is there any way to tell from these pictures if they are legit? Also, what's a fair price for them? I checked out Billyhallfan's page, but I'm wondering if these boxes give anything away, since they don't resemble the current bobblehead boxes. http://i19.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/a5/a6/9638_1.JPG http://i7.ebayimg.com/06/i/000/a0/36/ec05_1.JPG Any help? obviously a quick response would be best....
  14. Was anyone else kind of hoping the Royals would call up their own Ryan Braun so we could have a Braun vs. Braun at bat? I'm sure it's happened before with last names, but have a pitcher and batter with the same first and last name ever faced each other?
  15. Ooof, that one is obviously all on Rickie.....it looked like the one against the Giants the other day was on Prince though...come on boys!
  16. Caeser, I won the bidding for the Molitor 2003 SGA bobble (item #150133202557). Instead of doing the shipping thing, can I just meet you at a future bobblehead game and I can pay you then and we'll do the swap? For example, will you be at the Bill Hall SGA game this sunday?
  17. Ugh, why do my posts always end up being so long? Sorry guys.
  18. That's kind of my problem with the article and the comparison between Beloit and West Virginia. The author talks about why the Brewers left Beloit, because of poor facilities and low attendance, that's all fine and true....but it's not exactly like West Virginia suffers from any problems with either attendance or facilities. In fact, the T-Rats draw roughly 3,000 fans a game (last time I looked). With the weather poor at the start of the season, I imagine the average will go up and they will finish with between 3,500-4,000 per game. However, West Virginia averages just under 4,000 (if I remember), and their averages are also sure to go up with summer upon us. Obviously, I'd love to see the Brewers have a presence somewhere, anywhere in the Midwest League again...but I don't see how talking about why the Brewers left Beloit applies here, since West Virginia is doing just fine and dandy. If currently West Virginia resembled the Beloit situation ala 2003-ish, then I could see why the Brewers might be inclined to move. Right now, I just sadly don't see it happening. That said, do big league teams even care about the attendance numbers of their affiliates? I mean, the big league club doesn't see any of that gate money, do they? I would imagine they are much more concerned with the current facilities, and attendance is just an afterthought.
  19. Lately I've been getting into listening to minor league broadcasts while I'm just hanging around the house cleaning or playing MLB The Show when there is no big league game on, or before or after the Brewers games. It was great listening to Jeffress' gem last night. Thanks again for all the links Mass Haas. Those first half standings sure were nice to look at the last couple months.
  20. Are you looking to sell it? If so I'd be interested in it...for the 15ish range.
  21. I don't know what it is, but the colors in those graphics sure are purdy. Yes, Greinke used to be one of the premier pitching prospects in the game, but then if I recall, KC called him up as a 20 year old or something and he pitched well his first year, but then proceeded to carry a 6-ish ERA the next year, and then the following year announced he was suffering from depression. I guess I'd be depressed too if Reggie Sanders was the leading hitter on the offense supporting me. Seriously though, the kid is still only 23...and for some reason, I've always rooted for him. I'm sure someone can give a more accurate detail.
  22. Nothing too earth shattering here, and it's all just pipe dreams probably for one local reporter, but nonetheless, it makes me wishful, though I could have done without the cheap Ben Sheets comment. Mike Woods column: Hopefully in '08, Brewers and Rattlers will find each other
  23. In honor of Yo! and inspired by Yo! MTV Raps....I've written the official lyrics to Yo's debut tonight, put to the music of his player music "How We Do" by The Game: Tonight's something special Debut as a professional JJ turnin' outs into outs on the ground Prince wearin' the homerun crown Billy in centerfield divin' 6'6 Corey at lead off even makes Bernie go slidin' Which lineup will make the most? Ask Ned Yost It'd be Wise to keep Matt away from anything but toast Just another in-game-thread post Straight up from the Nashville Sound Welcome ya'll, it's Yovani on the mound Fort Worth in the house You about to get a slobberknocker to the mouth From the left Prince flexes, Just like Shouse Yo! straight outta Texas 2nd round? You must be kiddin' 27 up, 27 down, that's how Yo! be livin' Yeah he can pitch, but can he hit? Kid even carries a stick Got help from Braun on the hot corner San Fran please, this is the big leagues Your team is Pop Warner Tomorrow Sheets'll bring the heat Time to start a win streak Tonight's just a peak I ain't messin' 7 pm, turn on FSN Open some eyes, K more than Barry Bonds' hat size How about it kid, break a leg Beginning of a New Era, welcome to The Keg
  24. No reference yet back to when music videos were cool? Here's to Yo poppin' his collar tonight and showin 'em this is how we do! http://www.dustygroove.com/images/products/z/zzyomtvrapsajourneyba_101b.jpg
