  1. Doc, you may be right, but I hope not. I would argue that it's more important to put arguably our best player in the lineup to win games and so he develops a groove, instead of giving teams a look at Kevin Mench just so we can get a B level prospect instead of a C level prospect for him at the deadline. Not to mention, teams already know what Kevin Mench can or cannot do by now, he's not some obscure unknown.
  2. From today's game preview on brewers.com: Player to watch Philosophical question: If you're left out of the lineup and they don't play the game, were you left out of the lineup at all? Maybe Bill Hall mulled that question on Friday night, after the rainout. Yost had planned to leave Hall on the bench for what would have been the second straight game, going instead with Gabe Gross in center field. Hall has been slumping, batting .194 overall with one hit in his last 16 at-bats. He's only 3-for-24 (.125) lifetime against Wells.
  3. Mad Hatter, you're right on the blackout rules. However, My 24 in Milwaukee broadcasted 35 Bucks games this year.
  4. And why is this the first year that that contract has cause us to miss half of the Brewers' April games? Because, as others mentioned, usually these Brewer games just wouldn't even be televised. I remember a few games from April last year I thought that were also pre-empted by previous Bucks games. Plus, looking at the Bucks television schedule, I think the schedule just fell this way in regards to home/away games. 8 of the Bucks last 11 games are home games, which are the ones (usually) televised by FSN. Last year I think the Bucks ended mostly on the road, which meant that FSN wasn't televising the games (as most road games are shown on UPN 24 in Milwaukee, IIRC) and were then free to show Brewer games. Is it frustrating? Yes, sure, but the Bucks/Brewers snafu wasn't even supposed to happen today in the first place...we should be more upset at Mother Nature. If it's any consolation, there is only one more conflict date (this Monday), after today, which like I said, wasn't even supposed to happen. Plus, "half" is an over statement. As for blackouts, I'm assuming it will be blacked out, as have all the other games so far in Wisconsin (at least in the Apple-ton / GB market), but like someone said, sometimes with the game time being moved, perhaps we can hope that someone will forget to flip a switch.
  5. Thirdly.....did he really take a picture OF the pictures on his phone? Classic.
  6. Thanks to FSN, Mother Nature, MLB Extra Innings, and the Anti-Jeff Suppan crusade, I think I just realized that I have watched more Minnesota Twin games than I have Brewer games this year...........super!
  7. Ooops, thanks for the correction iluvlamp....that's what happens when I have to go to bowling and I'm out of the Brewers loop for 3 hours, I come back home and pretend I still know what's going on....my bad, http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  8. 20fry, thanks for the tip!
  9. As I mentioned in Friday's game thread, it doesn't look like this one was ever planned to be on TV...so, we can't blame the Bucks for this one.......seems silly to leave a Saturday night game against the rival Cardinals off the schedule..but...whatever...let's hope for rain and doubleheader baseball on Sunday!
  10. Sorry guys, I don't even see Saturday's game at all on the broadcast schedule....so I don't think we can chalk this one up on the Bucks....looks like it was just one left off the schedule...which seems odd, for a Saturday game vs. St. Louis....bummer...let's hope for rain!
  11. Razzzor....just wondering where you pre-ordered yours from? I played around on the Spawn.com website, but I don't see anywhere that you can pre-order it through them yet? Just shows information on the figure and the story behind the homerun pose, but nowhere to pre-order unless I'm missing something?
  12. .....maybe Chris Carpenter is the newest member of G-Unit?
  13. Prince...I haven't received an email yet, just wanted to make sure you sent it to the right place... rukahsatc@yah....
  14. Send you a message as well...
  15. edit: I should have also mentioned, I'd also be interested in any Brewers minor league ones as well....plus any Timber Rattler ones too...(especially if anyone has an Ortiz they want to sell)
  16. Hello all. I'm new to the whole bobblehead craze, and I know I'm getting into it super late, as it seems after the flood of bobbles this year, the fad will probably die out soon and they will no longer be as fun to have (similar to baseball cards 10 years ago)...but anyways...I'm not in it for the money of course, I'm just looking for something fun to collect and some cool Brewer bobbles to display. I'm wondering if anyone has any extras or whatever they are willing to sell for fairly cheap (I want to give you a fair price on them, but at the same time, I'm still a poor college kid, http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif ) but...anyways...like I said I'm fairly new to bobbles, so I don't have much in the way of trade, I'd rather just pay for them. I guess I'm not too picky about which players they are, obviously I'd prefer to spend a few bucks more for a JJ Hardy over a Wes Helms...but it's the Brewer uniform that counts to me I guess. So, does anyone have any that they want to sell? I know Ebay is the best way to go I guess, but, I'd much rather just deal directly with a few people on here. Obviously, if possible, I'd like to buy a few at a time from someone to save on shipping if we can. If you have something you wouldn't mind selling for fairly cheap, let me know via inbox, or just email me as I check my email much more often. Thanks! Josh (email: "rukahsatc" @ yahoo)
  17. Classy is the last word that could go with this thread at this point. Touche my internet Brewer friend, touche.
  18. Well Mad Hatter, just to be safe, I think I'm gonna put my pants back on when I wake up tomorrow. But, you know that when that first pitch is thrown tomorrow, they are coming back off. Goodnight everybody, it's been real. Stay classy.
  19. That's just great. Anyone know if it is Illegal to drive without pants? That's a great question. One that I'm sure could only be answered by a certain Detroit Lions coach....
  20. So, who pitches tomorrow for the Crew then? Should be interesting considering most pitchers will be ineligible per regular MLB game rules... I guess they just give the ball to Dessens and let him go the distance no matter what happens? Or do they put Aquino back out?
  21. Sounds like they continue this game at 6 tomorrow and then start the regular game immediately following. GREAT As the other poster mentioned, this was the only game some people were going to be able to watch from this series.
  22. Slidebernie, great idea...thanks for ugghhhh.....backing me. When this game comes back, everyone, off with the pants!
  23. Oh my, another rain delay. Goodie. I saw the cheese sandwich mention a while back....too bad the bread is probably soggy by now. So.....I suppose there's only a few of us left here, can I confess something? Before Julio came out to pitch the 9th, I figured we needed some sort of rally help, so, I instead of the standard rally cap, I decided to just take off my pants. If the Brewers pull this one out, any ideas on how I'll be able to explain to my girlfriend that from now on, I have to watch all Brewer games with my pants off?
  24. Nice to meet you, Kent. Join the club. Both the posting club, and the club with the crush on JJ hardy.
  25. Well, are we having fun yet? Go Brewers
