    I called yesterday about the personalized case - and the guy I talked to said he didn't know anything about any case. He said they just needed the name to know who to give the bat to.

    Contrary to mikerollins - I agree as well. He was pitching great. Which earns some wiggle room for error - but you have to consider the subject. Bush has a habit of pitching GREAT - and then - BAM - bad. This game was very simliar to his April 22nd start in Houston. Was just lights out for 8 innings - and then couldn't get an out in the 9th. I don't fault Ned though. Because of the injury to Cappy - both CV and Wise weren't available. I didn't want to see Spurling, Shouse or Dessens pitching the 7th either. Tough break.

    Suppose you go to Vegas with $500 to gamble with. Your wife will kill you if you lose more than that. If you lose the $500, you are going to be pretty upset - but you could live with it. Along comes that last day - and you are $1000 in the hole. You are in trouble. You could bail out now - explain to your wife that you messed up, and take your beating like a man. Instead, you get an extra $500 and put it all on one hand of black jack. You win - your wife is content. You lose - you better pack your bags. Thats how I feel about Harden. We already have a lot of salary tied up in a pitcher who has had health problems. Thats tough for any small market team. If you take on another one - and they both get hurt, your season is over. Sure it could pay off. But it really seems like a crazy risk to me. (regardless of what we give up) Oakland knows how hard it is to have your Ace (and his salary) hurt for a small market team. What makes anyone think we are in a different situation?

    You can find a few of the Pink Bats for sale online... Here is the Cub's version. They are selling for $129.99 right now. So I would think your chances of buying a Pink "Breast Cancer" bat is pretty good at some point. But I am sure only the ones from this promotion will come with Bill Hall's Autograph.

    It's nothing you don't know already. Potential partners are Marlins, Giants and Rockies. Melvin saying they aren't going to give him away for $.50 on the dollar.

    HOLY #^$%@& that game was un#&$^$believable!!!! Just #^$ fantastic! $&%^%^ and then #^@#% but when he, I mean, good lord #&%$^!!!! That was one of the best all around games I have seen from the Brewers - ever. Good Night Wisconsin!

    I think given our recent success and overused bullpen, Yost had this as a unlikely win in his book. Vargas wasn't great. We are down three. Get in Dressens and Spurling, let them get some work and recoup for tomorrow's game.

    In Saturday's paper, I believe, you will get a "make up" coupon to purchase any you might have missed. Frankly, I was really disappointed in my Cooper Coin. I should have guessed after seeing the collectors booklet (the really thin cardboard being handed out at the game). I think the coins are really cheap. They are smaller than I thought. They have no real weight to them. I was really hoping for a quality coin collection. After seeing how junky I thought this one looked - I might get Molitor and Yount, but that would be all.

    That was a great catch. But there was another one, I think in the 9th...a hot shot down the line by him, just foul that he got a glove on (barely) but couldnt' hold on to. Not to mention Bill looked pretty close to bringing that grand slam back into the park.

    No one is really talking about it - but Estrada's throw to 3rd to try for the lead runner was a mistake. I was WAY up in the rafters and saw he wasn't going to get him. He would have gotten the runner at second. And that would have given us one out with the double play still set up. At the very least he needed to get someone. I know everyone is mad at Aquino (and I am too) as well as Yost (not currently on my christmas list), but there were lots of missed chances. Matt Wise just missed that bunt catch. Counsell almost caught a foul ball. Estrada missed getting ANY out. (not to mention Estrada throwing two balls into center) There was enough blame to go around. While Aquino deserves a fair share - there were plenty of chances to get out of that game with a win.

    Mine are spoken for.

    I don't feel like going through the hassle be Ebay and trying to rip anyone off paying shipping cost. I have two Cecil Cooper Bobbleheads from the other night. They are both pinstripes. Anyone gives me $10 bucks for one - I will pay for the shipping and send it right out to you. Message me if you are interested.
  13. twobrewers
    I have an extra. What are you offering?

    Am I the only one who hates the use of ERA for relief pitchers as a statistic? Coming into last nights game Aquino had a 2.70 ERA. That just seems soo misleading since he lets every runner he inherits to score!! And Matt Wise having to take the loss for that game bothers me as well. Wise made a good play on the first batter - almost caught the bunt. And when Aquino kills us - Wise gets the loss. Do we know why it wasn't Cordero? I mean, tie game/at home/9th inning - isn't using your closer pretty standard in the situation? Or as my friend put it last night... Honestly, he would have done less damage if the would have dropped his pants and spawned a fresh brown trout right there on the mound, got ejected and allowed a random 12 year old girl from the stands to pitch for him, because that girl would no doubt walk 5 batters on 20 pitches and only allowed 2 runs in before getting pulled. i think he's confused and thinks that if the brewers lose we can get either oden or durant in the draft

    People with out any passengers using the carpool lane while I sit patiently in line with everyone else. Just once, I wish they had a cop standing right next to the traffic light handing out tickets. I get sooo freaking mad just thinking about.
  16. twobrewers
    billyhallfan - Email me at brewerstwo@hotmail.com. I will give you some more information then. Also, anyone else interested in a Charlie Moore in the pinstrips for $6 email me at the above address.
  17. twobrewers
    I have some interested in the baby blue uniform already. Anyone want the regular pinstripes for $6 bucks? I'll pay the shipping then. Message me if you are interested.
  18. twobrewers
    I have both a pinstripe and old baby blue charlie moore booblehead available for sale. I will put them on Ebay if I don't get any offers - but I thought I would see if anyone on here is interested first. I am not too picky, since I am not a collector. Send me a message with a reasonable offer - and you can have them (or just one)
  19. twobrewers
    Sent you a message back.

    Still have tickets for Sundays game. Willing to sell them for $10 bucks a piece. Face value is $18. PM me if interested. Or email me at brewerstwo@hotmail.com
  21. twobrewers
    I sold the April 7th game. I still have two nice tickets to the Sunday game. I can't use them. Anyone interested? Drop me a message.
  22. twobrewers
    Still available.... Otherwise, I will end up putting them on StubHub later....

    I have some tickets for the Cubs game on April 7th and April 8th that I can't use. My inlaws are in town and I have to spend time with them for Easter. (Wife's idea!) Anyways, they are in section 421 row 13 seats 5 and 6. The face value is $18 a ticket. So if anyone want to go to one of the games - I got two tickets to each game for $36.

    I'd say you are more optomistic than I am. I think it is "Sheets will no be re-signed." The club can't admit it, but with the way salaries are going - Sheets is a goner. Hence, they can't trade YoGa because they are counting on him to replace Sheets as the Ace in 2009.

    Just a note on those "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" programs... Almost all of the families that are down and out and get some help with a beautiful new home sell that house within a year. That house, and all of the cost associated with building it are considered income and are taxable. So they get a really sweet house - and then a huge tax bill that they have no chance of paying. Not to mention that their real estate taxes also go through the roof. It makes for exciting TV (for some at least) but in reality, they might as well just give the family a briefcase of cash. They don't get the house - they just end up with money from selling it.
