  1. I am out on June 20 (vacation to CA). Suck that it's a White House game.
  2. Final roster set!? 01. valpo 02. Kenny / bball 03. radman 04. Houlie 05. Beeks 00. Al (?) 06. nullbyte 07. Drick 08. Schubert 09. Jon 10. Aaron 11. RightFieldCoder / Robin19 12. Alan EDIT: Al has dropped out at the last minute because he can't do Thursdays for the first half of the season.
  3. How does this Sunday at 12:30 sound? Weather for the weekend isn't great, but it looks like improvement should come later in the weekend. LaFollette park has worked well in the past as a central location, although right now Greenfield Ave and the 894 exits are a mess around there. I'm open to a better suggestion. EDIT: Time changed to 3:00
  4. Yeah, like I'm really anxious for Davy Nelson's commentary on that last play. Can't wait to hear him ramble through 50 poorly pronounced words and half-words on his way to stating some incredibly obvious statement. Why would FSN even tease with that ... that's an automatic channel change.
  5. Well, that's one way to end a rally and a winning streak... hmm.
  6. Questionable throw, no doubt. But it is possible to execute that throw without chucking it into the dirt with no prayer of being caught. That was like a Prince Fielder throw to the plate. Terrible.
  7. I can't take Weeks' defense anymore. What a freaking bum. Can't catch, can't throw. That drop two plays ago was utterly ridiculous ... tee ball crap. Just get lost, Weeks. Trash.
  8. It was a 2-2 count so now you just sound silly. I'm not watching with DVR, so I can't rewind, but it was 0-2, right?
  9. "Three cheers for me ... Captain Venable ... with my carrot, and my celery"
  10. The weather has made practice a distant thought so far, but it looks like it's finally getting better. I'm out of town this weekend, but I think we should plan on having practices the first two weekends in May -- weather permitting.
  11. So, couldn't career-year Bill Hall have been traded because of Hardy? (Instead of foolishly misplaying him in CF ... still bothers me.) Couldn't recent all-star JJ Hardy have been traded because of Escobar? Couldn't all-star Rickie Weeks have been traded because of Lawrie? Couldn't 104 RBI Casey McGehee have been traded because of Lawrie? Couldn't rising-stock Carlos Gomez have been traded because of Schafer (or Aoki)? It's debatable whether or not these were the right (non-)moves to make, and maybe there were no takers in any of these situations, but it seems like the opportunities were there analogous to the Revere/Span ... Hicks/Benson example. Personally, I think Hall, Weeks, Gomez are giant wastes of money, avoidable with cheaper, younger, suitable replacements.
  12. What does everyone else think? 13 guys means potential for 3 on the bench for half a game if everyone shows. IMO, I'm in favor of it to cover absences and late arrivals, or even if someone backs out on the team at the last minute. It also lowers everyone's cost by a few bucks. So, I say yes, conditional on anyone else's thoughts.
  13. LOL, is the late start comment a joke back at me? I feel like it might be.... The programmer in me reads Bang! as bang bang ... !! ... double negative ... so I think I'll refer to them as True. Maybe instead of a bunch of dudes sponsored by a bar, they'll be a team of nerdy hackers from Red Prairie?
  14. Ahem! http://forum.brewerfan.net/viewtopic.php?p=821710#p821710
  15. Why do so many throws from the outfield one-hop their way to the plate? Fear of air mailing the catcher? The eyeball test says the ball gets there noticeably quicker when it doesn't skip off the ground first.
  16. Awful throw from Gonzalez obviously, but that sure looked like something Rickie should have been able to catch anyways?
  17. Wait, so one week into the season the organization already knows that Hart won't be healthy until at least May 30th? So all recent injuries aside, we'd be sitting here with the organization prepared to trot out a no-hit SS for eight weeks, 1/3 of the season, as our 1B? A player without the bat to play SS on any MLB team was our April and May plan at 1B?
  18. Rubbish. We haven't played a good team yet and haven't gone on the road yet, and we're 1-5 and a hair from being 0-6 ... we are terrible right now. It's not a good sign that Braun can't even hit well enough to be a better option than pitcher. Just put him on the 15 day.
