    i can verify the delectible-ness of bikeage's brat method. he and i have had some epic evenings in the lot downing sausages and living the dream. this thread all but brings a tear to my eye. (why are there no brats in asia?) also, if you're not using stadium sauce on your brat, you're doing it wrong. stop kidding yourself.

    pedro, i've been living in asia for two years, not seeing much action outside of gameday. on gray days and when i miss the smell of miller park, i listen to my mp3 of uecker calling braun's home run last fall - it works every time. i'd kill for one of those dvds.

    i don't want to derail this thread (heck, opening day already passed), but this post belongs in the sarcastic AND anti-cubs fan post hall of fames. thank you jim h for delivering swift, completely over-the-top, broadly offensive, sarcastic justice with impeccable timing. you, sir, have made my day. fie to my friends who in the past have chastised my santo jokes.

    dude, if that guy posts here don't you think he would have been flaunting that already?

    i've been to busch a few times, it's nice, and the stadium seems to be really accessible. as far as seats, i would recommend avoiding getting too far down into the corners, as the seats out there felt really far from the action. other than that, bring sunblock.

    i'm a long-time rotoworld member wondering about rotopass.com. the site is allegedly a melding of a few of the top fantasy sites, it was started by espn's matthew barry. it's real expensive, but i wonder if it could be worth it if you're that committed. any bf.netters have an account? thoughts? reviews? rumors?

    hey guys, it's been ages since i've posted, but in the spirit of rekindled excitement for the coming season i wanted to post this video of the avett brothers covering springsteen's glory days that my brother recently put me onto. that song will forever make me think of sunburns and watching robin yount patrol centerfield at county stadium. hope the nostalgia finds you, too. feel free to lurk my blog while you're there.

    show of hands for who now wants to see adam dunn end up in the al east by the end of the season for the sole purpose of punishing the blue jays first hand: (*raising hand*)

    A comment from Yost regarding the plausibility of Bush's no-no, as quoted in espn.com's article about today's game: "You start thinking, 'Geez, maybe,' " Yost said. "They've got a guy sitting behind the ball boy that authenticates every game ball that comes out. I think, 'Why are they doing that?' About the eighth inning, I started to figure out why. If this happens, you've got authenticated balls." Now, I'd like to think that i'm no more juvenile than your average bf.netter, but that's just plain funny. I find it to be especially funny when you take into consideration what so many of us make of Yost's figurative cojones as a manager.

    Yeah, to me, music is just a way to put emotion in your ear hole. Once it's in there, it's completely about what mood you want to be in and what works for you. Sometimes I like meaningful artsy crap, other times I just want something to groove to (primarily the latter). Everything else, to me at least, seems like analysis paralysis and has nothing to do with emotion... for reference, my post was not a potshot at the topic, but rather a sardonic poke at Hova vs. And That arguing originality and whatnot.

    hooray for nitpicking and philosophical runabouts!

    two points here: 1) i was at the branyan opening day '05 game and the dunn shot last year. ironically, given the new argument about a visiting player being credited with the longest shot, last year during the cleveland-anaheim snowed-in series in milwaukee travis hafner hit what i think is the longest home run i've seen in miller park. he hit a ball to right center (to the center field side of the bleachers) that hit off the back screen/window panel about as high as the second deck (i believe there used to be/are at&t and us bank signs out there). it was an absolute bomb. i remember watching it and glancing for a second at the people on the concourse below and seeing them just look up. the reason i think it was the longest is because it was on more of a line than the branyan moonshot. 2) didn't burnitz loft a shot up onto the dew deck in 2002? did i dream that?

    did the braves just make a pitching change? espn's gamecast just put miriano rivera's picture in the pitcher box! lol.
  18. flosses like fossas
    sending suppan out there with 98 pitches under his belt? who's warming?

    my review: barf. and dry heaving.

    amid all this sample-sizing and derrick turnbow digit dropping let's not forget a little guy i like to call "dirty" danny kolb. read 'em and weep: 2003: 1-2, 1.96 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, 21 saves (115 career innings) 2004: 0-4, 2.98 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 39 saves (170 career innings) (with atlanta, 2005: 3-8, 5.93 ERA, 1.86 WHIP, 11 saves, 7 blown saves) i'm going to paraphrase here: somewhere in the doug melvin/billy beane commandments it says thou shalt not trade top prospects for sample-sizable closers; to the contrary, thou shalt develop said closers and spin them in such deals when possible. edit: spelling

    mlbtraderumors.com is reporting that ken rosenthal is reporting that the indians have a glut of starting pitching (sound heartbreakingly familiar?) and will likely look to make a move to improve at second or third as the season progresses. the brewers, having just gotten callix crabbe back from san diego now have a major league-ready and a waiting-in-the-wings option at both of these positions - see: hall, weeks, gamel, crabbe. at what point do the brewers' woes become such that they start to have this conversation? soon, i hope. if we (realistically) play for sowers or laffey we wouldn't have to give up gamel and we could add young, major-league-ready arms going forward. weeks would be my favorite to move. i think it could be argued that a change of scenery could be good for weeks, though it's my personal contention that it's not going to happen for rickie either way. this would leave the brewers a hole that could potentially be filled by crabbe (yes, i know how he struggled in san diego) or the much poo-pooed hernan iribarren position re-swap. OR hall could be shifted over to second, making room for gamel or even branyan (as a patch) on the hot corner. thoughts?

    for something of a recent - if not indirect - historical fiction, i just finished delillo's falling man. as ever, delillo takes reality, looks at some of the ironies and hard truths of it, and spins it viably in a way that you don't necessarily see coming. it's not his greatest book, nor is it a sunshiny read, but it's worth a look as far as post-9/11 lit goes. having stated that, i would be remiss if i omitted mention here of jonathan safron-foer's extremely loud and incredibly close. both are interesting peeks into the fallout of contact with the events of 9/11.

    i currently live abroad and thus have not been able to watch, let alone attend, a game yet this season. as a result, i've been comparing the gameday/gamecast features on various sites because i have to follow the games at work. originally i had preferred mlb.com's "gameday" feature, but something about my connection at work makes it freeze up pretty regularly, which is quite annoying. so for the past week or so i had been using yahoo's equivalent (don't have the specific application's name handy), which i found slowslowslow. i've finally arrived at espn.com's gamecast. [before you castigate me for even thinking that anything about espn might be useful, hear me out: 1) i'm desperate for brewers, and 2) i have a fantasy league that i have to check there anyways.] not only is the connection and speed better at gamecast, but there is a constant flow of information about the hitters and pitchers splits, game conditions, other headlines, and, for what it's worth, the animation and layout are better. after only a short time, i would have to say that mlb.com's and yahoo's similar features pale in comparison. there must be other people on this board whose game watching is, like mine, sadly relegated to these options. thoughts? recommendations? are there other, better options? am i late to the party?
