Not that I'm looking to sell, but theoretically, what do you think a working model of the Milwaukee County Stadium scoreboard might be worth. It's about 61x48x24 and weights probably 200 pounds. The screen has been adjusted to black and white (with a hint of yellow) to simulate the the "state of the art" display of the old video board. It's connected to a dedicated Tivo of Brewers games and a DVD player with a custom DVD with simulated scoreboard stills, like the one shown below. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/42a358081a199a41137656c00b40f49409a9849.jpg

I'll take the 2008 Yovanni Gallardo Beloit Snappers. I'll PM you.

1610 has been around for a long time... and never once helped anyone get anywhere.http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/be8255812e9df1bd5d305317674663bba4e12f8.jpg

Happy Easter ALL!! I've decided to "Pull a Pedro" and giveaway a pair of tickets for tonights game. I've got 2 side by side tickets in section 233 for tonights game FREE to one of my fellow BF.net'ers. Tickets will be emailed for print at home delivery. Go cheer on the Crew to victory over the Cubs! First person to respond gets the tickets!

Yep, it's legit. Like Matt said, not 1950's original, but part of the upgrades over the years. The plastic seats were installed in the mid 1970s (I believe). I've got a pair myself. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/31715b1d93145b0e8cf7e529c54ca9e9083fce0.jpg I also put this together today. It's a new desk chair made from an old Diamond Box seat. I've got another Diamond box seat in the garage, but no stand for it. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/8111591a9c1a590b1e5e7bcf7a95e731e394379.jpg

Interested in the nameplate. Check you inbox.

Wow Matt. it turned out really well. I can't believe how much you got done in such a little amount of time. Last time I was there I couldn't even imagine where you were going to start. Looks great!

I have a pair of tickets for the Brewers Cubs Sunday night ESPN game at Miller Park on Sunday April 12th. Section 233 Row 16. Purchased from the Brewers for a grand total of $68.50 (that includes the fees). Save yourself some money and avoid he extra fees. I'm only looking for $60. These are Print @ Home tickets and can be emailed to you right away. Paypal only please. I also have a pair of Opening Day tickets from one of my season ticket packages on ebay. I can't offer them here because I'm looking for above face, BUT they are very reasonably priced. If you buy them, make sure to mention Brewerfan.net and your screen name and I'll send them out with free shipping. http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/3c31531f9013540de3a8571c93a42abbb66bede.jpg

Kohls has them for $25 (Blue USA shirts with BRAUN 18 on the back. Saw and bought one today during my lunch hour.

I love this item. Good price too! I hope someone can take it off your hands.

I'm almost positive thats the case. I just picked up row 5 behind the dugout because I was fairly certain it was really row 2.

You know, when this thread was started, I actually went to work the next day and examined my follow up routine. Went through my out box, my notes... Basically I took this thread and used it as a small tool to help me look at my job through the eyes of a prospective employee. Honestly, I did. I just so happened to take part in a training session with others in my field a couple of days later and one of the talking points was "follow up and customer service" And I brought this very thread up. (Brewerfan.net making a difference in the world yet again!). Anyhow, Everyone wants a call back, or an email because - Yes - it sucks to be left hanging. I know. Personally, I always try (try) to give closure to people - the ones I've meet with and interviewed at least - even if it's not the answer their hoping for. As for responding to every resume or phone call from a every candidate, wow. I wish I had the time. Just doing some quick math, if I spent 3 minutes with every single person who calls me or emails me a resume, I'd spend better than 2 solid hours each day just talking on the phone with candidates who didn't meet what I'm looking for. Anyhow. Good luck to everyone looking for work. Seriously, I wish nothing but the best for everyone out of work right now.

Just like when you said, "I'm sure there are some good HR people ", I'll say "I'm sure there are some good job seekers " BUT.... From MY perspective, most job seekers have no idea how to effectively communicate themselves. From their resumes to their interview skills - let alone their phone skills, most candidates fail miserably, but it's always HR's fault.... I deleted the rest of my reply because it started to turn into a "rant".

My favorite part from Uecker Re Koskie: "Kent, did I see that Corey Koskie signed with the Royals? No, The Cubs? Ok. It's the Cubs that have lost their mind then."

I have no idea what kind of value they have but your right, it's a cool item to collect but you almost have to go all out (and get everyone available) to make it worth while.

Agreed. There are very few websites that I feel totally comfortable dealing, trading with and buying stuff from others like I do here. We're a smaller group, most of us have dealt with each other in some capacity before and no one wants to ruin a reputation with so many people. As for a separate ticket forum, I'll join the camp that is happy the way things are.

I wish people realized how many phone calls and emails HR people and recruiters get every day. I left work today with 204 emails in my inbox - and those are just the ones that could wait another day. And it's not like I sat around twirling my thumbs all day either. I also don't think people have a true idea of just how many responsibilities HR covers. And, not directing this at you or anyone in particular, but why is it that everyone who calls me thinks they are the only person I might possibly have to deal with that day? Why is it that everyone who calls me thinks that they are the only person looking for work? Or has a problem? And, truly, I appreciate your frustration in your job search. I myself spent 7 months out of work before landing at my current company. It's no fun looking for work, I know. Good luck and I hope all goes well.

And that's not bad at all. They used to go for $100+.

Close the thread. Nothing tops this. I love it!

I used to do this all the time. In addition to the Rolen you mentioned, I've done a few others. I've shared these before but since you asked, here are a couple of my favorites.... The Tat is mine, the arm is his. (the watermark is from my old website) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v454/ilookback/Untitled-5.jpg And my all time favorite.... http://images.yuku.com/image/jpeg/d081591793175503465ae4b10668038cf12dfbb.jpg

Thanks for the interest, here is the photo. http://images.myphotoalbum.com/p/pj/pja/pjay/pjays/pjayscollection/albums/album01/img_1780.sized.jpg

I'm cleaning out my office this weekend and I've come across some items I think I can part with. I have 12 vintage autographs that I hope someone here will enjoy. I bought them as part of a larger memorabilia lot last year. 8 of the signatures are on clean, white 3x5 index cards. The other 4 auto's are on 3x5 photos. Take a look. I'm not looking for much, maybe $10 for the lot - shipped. PM me it you're interested. Paypal only please. Phil Regan Went 14-1 with a 1.62 in an All Star 1966 season with the Dodgers Larry Sorenson Drafted by the Brewers in 1976. Two years later he was an All Star winning 18 game for the Brewers in their first ever winning season (93 wins). Lindy McDaniel Went 12-2 out of the pen with 22 saves and a 1.29era for the Cardinals in 1960. He won 141 games in the majors and saves another 172 over 21 years. Andy Pafko Wisconsin's own, Andy was a 5 time All Star and played in 4 World Series. He hit 36 Home Runs with a .397 OBP in 1950. Hal Smith A two time All Star catcher with the St Louis Cardinals. Retired 1965. Jimmy Wynn "The Toy Cannon" Three time All Star & former Milwaukee Brewer. Hit 33 HR with a .436OBP in 1969. . Hit 20 HR's or more 8 times in a 15 year career. Number was retired by the Astros a few years back Plus 2 more unidentified signatures. Also included in the lot are four signed 3x5 (approx) photos. Don Money is the only one I can identify. The others are players for the Dodgers, Tigers and Braves. All the photos look 1970's-ish. To be honest, I didn't do much research on the photos. I'm sure someone out there will recognize them.

I voted again! Good luck.
