    Don't know why, just felt like posting this (and not because of the outcome tonight), but I have to get it off my chest: I don't have any confidence in the Brewers making the playoffs. There, I said it. It's not a vent. It's not a whine. It's not a thought-out logical, statistical or rational analysis. It's just appears to be my attitude. I'm not proud of it, but I can't ignore it. I'm happy we're in the hunt, happy we have the best record since May 19th or whatever, and happy we have CC Sabathia. I don't boo, I don't complain (much) about individual players or the manager, I don't go around spouting a defeatist attitude, I attend games and cheer, I very much want them to win, and I support the team on many levels. Yet, I cannot shake my innermost thought: that the Brewers will fall short. I'm fairly certain it's simply the result of all the year's of losing, but one is never one's own best judge. That is my confession. I just needed to let it out. I also confess that's it getting more difficult to listen to Bob Uecker, I don't like Klements sausuages or the sausage race, I occassionaly miss County Stadium, I once thought Corey Hart was not major-league worthy, and I've been known to leave early to avoid the traffic. Whew, that was cathartic. Anyone else care to confess anything?

    What seat # splitter? You're sitting right beneath my seats on the Club level. I want to make sure my peanut aim is true.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    At Cooperstown this year, Gibson on a flat or ball is $65; at the National he's $69 (inscriptions are $25/$30). Overall the National seems to be about $5-$10 more than the signings at Cooperstown. I'm going to both this year, but most of my autographs will be football HOFs at the National. Fortunately, I got most of the baseball HOFs at Cooperstown over the past 10 years or so, when they were a bit less expensive. I was surprised by the cost of the Football HOFs.

    I'll be in my seats with my cousin (who I haven't seen in 30+ years) and his son, who are on a father/son baseball tour this summer. Perfect timing. Can't wait to see CC.
  6. Pedro
    I agree; it just illustrates how goofy these things can get.

    I just had to add this comment from an Indians fan on TH's blog: Reports off of 1100am in Cleveland has said that the player to be named later depends on the performance of CC Sabathia They went on to say If the Brewers do not make the playoff the player to be named later would be a very low Rookie league lower A Ball player . Thought to be Jeremy Jeffress If the Brewers get to the playoffs and win and CC does well They will receive upper A baller lower AA type player thought to be Alexandre Periard Right handed Pitcher If they win the World Series and CC Does well the player they are believed to receive will be Angel Salome catching prospect

    Thanks for the absolution Fr. Blingster! Fotunately, the entire family was watching Naked Gun 2 1/2 during my slip, so it got kinda lost in the shuffle (kinda).
  9. Pedro
    I just swore in front of my kids...thanks crew.

    We need some offense tonight. I think we should trade Sabathia for some young offensive talent like LaPorta, Green and...wait, I'm confused, what do we need, who do we have? I just spent 40 minutes reading the trade rumors thread and drinking wine. My brain is scrambled.

    And the winner is...MessiahRp24. Thanks everyone for supporting the Mota Relief Fund. Keep your eyes open for further efforts on behalf of this worthy cause.
  12. Pedro
    Thanks. It has happened before that the person I have given tickets to sold them. Not cool.
  13. Pedro
    If it was River Falls, I would have worked out something where Mota would drive and pick-up the tickets for you as his penance.
  14. Pedro
    Good point, yep, Menomonee Falls.
  15. Pedro
    A five run lead in the 9th inning is a terrible thing to waste. That's why I've established the Mota Relief Fund, because sometimes we all need a little help to get through a day when Mota pitches. We need happy and smiles and lollipops and sunshine and babies and bluebirds and hope and faith and oodles of hugs to forget the tears, the bitterness and the hurt. I have none of that, but I do have four free Field Infield Box tickets I can provide to make try and make someone's day a little better (if you consider going to a Brewers game "better"). I'll give it until sometime tomorrow and then do a random drawing. I would like a Barrel Man bobble or two from the game however, that's the only catch. Well, that and you'll have to pick-up the tickets in the Falls.

    The worst (or best) part is, I don't even get that upset at these catastrophic loses any more. Not because I've matured in my view of the importance of a game in my life, but because we've seen so many of these games the past year, that I'm rather numb to it all and extremely cynical in regards to the Brewers.

    Just reviving this thread to see who else is attending. I'm going to go Friday and Saturday.
  18. Pedro
    I apologize to all those who PM'd me...I left immediately after panthernick said he couldn't use them. I ended up just giving them to two ladies who were in the ticket line at Miller Park.
  19. Pedro
    panthernick...I want nothing for them...just enjoy the game. PM your name and I can leave them at Will Call.
  20. Pedro
    Hey, I know it's last minute, but I find myself with two unused tickets for tonights game -- Club Level, Row1. If you can use them, let me know....soon.
  21. Pedro
    I think brewizard has hit the nail on the head, from the nuggets I've heard. How that translates into W/L I have no idea. But I would suspect it doesn't help.
  22. Pedro
    H4P, thanks for "paying forward." I stand up and applaud you.
  23. Pedro
    uwisfan.... They're yours. PM me your address.
  24. Pedro
    I've got two extra tickets for this game for anyone who wants them. Club Level, 1st row.
  25. Pedro
    I found it while reading Jim Powell's blog. It's probably a planned trip given the new stadium and all...but hey, as long as they're all in Washington...
