  1. You are right. After I wrote that, I doubted myself. The exclusive FSN contract starts next year.
  2. Because this is the first year that all the Bucks games are on FSN. Previously, a portion of the games were on local channel 24 in Milwaukee. And during the Baseball season, they made an effort to ensure that when both teams were playing at the same time, that the Bucks were on the Local 24 instead of FSN.
  3. Regarding the blackout games on Extra Innings, I think I have figured out reasoning behind there actions. Basically, it's all about money. FSN Wisconsin has paid for the exclusive rights to broadcast Milwaukee Brewer games in there market. Because of this no other feeds of the brewer game can be televised, even if FSN Wisconsin decides not to televise the game. The only reason WMLW has Brewer games on is because FSN Wisconsin has an agreement with them, and they are only showing the games that FSN Wisconsin couldn't/wasn't going to show. Tonight's game would have been on WMLW if this was the original start time.
  4. It always feels good after one win, but after two it feels even better. Also I didn't have to take my pants off for this one, so that's a plus.
  5. FYI 16,375 at Miller Park tonight.
  6. Just announced 16,375 in attendance. EDIT: or tickets purchased anyways
  7. I don't know about you, but as soon as the Brewers won, I put my pants back on. Show some dignity. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  8. As far as I'm concerned, we should use this "Pants Off" strategy sparingly. No sense ruining a good thing. Lets see how the game progresses, and if need be, we can take them off. But that's just my opinion.
  9. Bottom is pretty full, and the second level is filling up (about Half right now). But they haven't opened the Bleachers yet. Announcers are saying that fans are still coming in though Edit: The second level is more then half. Looks pretty full, foul pole to foul pole. Bleachers still not open
  10. Jobs all done. Cousins kid has been picked up, Neighbors nowhere in sight, Time to get down to business, and take my pants off.
  11. Well, I was forced to put my pants back on. Stupid Neighbors. I had a robe on when I went to get the mail, but it was windy. And cold... Definitely cold.... But a bit refreshing. I guess it was bound to happen anyway. My cousin wasn't about to allow we to watch there 2yearold without pants(and they claim to be Brewer fans). But as soon as he is picked up, they're coming off! Now to add some actual talk about Baseball, As long as the first game doesn't last long, Estrada should play both. But I wouldn't be surprised to see Miller used first to pinch hit if needed in the first game.
  12. I believe that coach for the Lions didn't have underwear on. I do. That might make a difference, Edit: parkside21, You are a better man then I for taking that chance. I simply can not do it. Once the pants come off, it's all business.
  13. That's just great. Anyone know if it is Illegal to drive without pants?
  14. So say we already took our pants off. If the game is postponed until tomorrow, do we have to keep our pants off until then? I mean, wont putting them back on counteract the Voodoo that was created by taking them off? Just wondering because I have to watch my 2 year old cousins tomorrow, and that might be a little uncomfortable since I won't be blamed for causing the Brewers to loose this game.
  15. I don't know why everyone thinks that the fight was such a big deal. Every monopoly game I have played progresses in the same fashion. We begin arguing about the rules but eventually settle about some form of play. We start out fine, making snide remarks every now and then but it's all in good fun until someone notices someone steeling money from the bank. We try to continue playing, but the snide remarks start hitting below the belt, and after a while someone throws a cheep shot resulting in a big brawl. The winner is the last man left standing. And if I remember correctly, I'm pretty sure that in the official rules this is the basic outline on how the game should be played. But I know everyone has there own "house rules" so your playing experience may be slightly different. For example, until recently I never played using the Free Parking rule talked about on the show. As for the rest of the episode, While not my favorite, I thought it did a good job at setting up this season. I just hope that this season doesn't revolve around Bobby and Janice. Not my favorite characters
  16. That's why I don't attend the Cub games. I had a restless sleep the night before the one game I attended, much like yourself. I was able to control myself at the game, but the Brewers kicked butt that night. Tonight, I would have lost it. I just know it. As for my uncle, here's the kicker. He isn't even a real Cubs fan. He doesn't really watch the games or follow the team. He just like to shove it in your face when they win. I don't think he even knows anyone that's on the team. Then again that probable makes him a Cubs fan by default.
  17. And play who? I don't want to see a lineup with both Graffanino and Counsell Especially with Sheets on the mound Tomorrow and Miller most likely catching.
  18. JET15, Thank-you, although I wasn't trying to be Funny, just letting out my built up anxiety (how sad is that) ---Update on my FIB Uncle.--- With that Hart home run, I finally got the courage to step out from the shadows(and behind my parents computer) with the belief that I could keep it under control. And as my Uncle began to lay it into me, my mother asked him about his daughter, (the one that hates him) After a couple brief comments, he decided that it was time to hit the road. Mothers can really surprise you sometimes. As far as I'm concerned, there should be a special day where we honor our mothers for all the do for us. A day of there own where gifts can be bestowed upon them, their favorite meals prepared, and proper respect be given...... Wait a minute... HER BIRTHDAY! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
  19. We're gonna get no hit. I can't believe we are going to get no hit. And against the Cubs. Oh' my God. What am I gonna do. What am I gonna do! My FIB uncle is here, and I can't keep hiding from him. I'm gonna have to face him eventually. Should I punch him in the face before he says anything? Counter act with talking about his Daughter who hates him?Should I just sneak out the window, and cower in shame? I know I can't just stand there and let him berate me, I won't be able to take it. I mean Easter is this Sunday. There is no way My mother would approve. I can't do that to her. I just can't. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, SOMEONE SLAP ME!
  20. At least you are not watching it next to your FIB uncle who just walked in as the 1st inning started. Everyone has one of these uncles(or at least they seem to) arrogant and cocky know-it-all, who is never wrong, and will always shove it in your face when you are wrong. Just so happens Mine lives in Illinois, and just happened to stop by on his way to the U.P. I don't know how he always times this. If not the Cubs, it's when the Bears play the Packers. He's always right there to rub it in my face. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif Edit: Is there any way to make the red angry face guy bigger? Cause I need it right now.
  21. So much for all the praise that Bush was receiving before the season. And he's starting on my fantasy team. Only hope is for Hill to fall apart as bad as Bush. Edit: and my uncle from Illinois just happens to stop by on his way to the U.P. This evening just keeps getting better and better.
  22. I'm glad that Estrada is starting tonight. This game is making me really uneasy. Both Bush and Hill were getting a lot of good pub this off season, and it's fitting that they face off against each other in there first outing of the year. Boy I hope we win.
  23. Of course it would be today, the first day of the first series against the Cubs, that I'm reminded of why we call FIBs FIBs. It's amazing how often I get cut off while driving by these people. And while I'm at it, I HATE these Cub-Brewer series here in Milwaukee. It's embarrassing when half the stadium is filled with Cub fans. Not so much because it makes it look like Milwaukee doesn't support the Brewers, but because it helps to increase the perception of this so called "elitist society" that is Chicago. (if that makes any sense, I just don't know how else to explain it.) I do not attend these games. (I know, I'm part of the problem) But the reason I don't attend is because, I don't trust myself at these games. I do not want to embarrass Milwaukee or the Brewer organization because I couldn't control myself. If I offended anyone here, I apologize. This is a vent thread and I had to vent. Then again, if that FIB wouldn't have cut me off I wouldn't be here.
  24. I wouldn't start Miller over Estrada tonight. Don't get me wrong, I would like Estrada's bat against Zambrano on Saturday, that is if Sheets wasn't pitching. We are facing a more powerful lineup then vs LA, and Millers defense and pitch-calling will definitely be a plus. Usually in these pitching duals, it's who out lasts the other will determine the winner. (at least in my opinion) I truly believe that our best chance at winning against Zambrano is defense over offense. Now if it wasn't Sheets or Zambrano pitching, then yes, Estrada is the best option. But not with both cards in play. That's my belief anyway.
