  1. 1) I will not cry every time I can't get tickets to a big game because I could not afford my 20-game package 2) I will try not to root against CC Sabathia 3) I will trust that Macha is smart enough to know Suppan is toast and not put him out there every fifth day once he gets a good look at him 4) I will try very hard not to live and die with every run this year 5) I will disregard rule 4 most of the time, unless my health or relationships suffer too much
  2. Is it just me, or is the SD feed on DirecTV for FSN better this year? It was god-awful last year.

  4. So i just read this article from brewers.com. It made me laugh really hard, then made me a bit angry. So CC thinks that being in New York with the biggest ever contract for a pitcher will somehow take pressure off of him? Then, he has the nerve to say the Milwaukee would expect him to win every game and wouldn't be able to put the necessary pieces together to actually help him win? Yes, Wisconsin sports fans do tend to expect people to play to their contracts, but we absolutely loved CC. Unless he became a sheets and was always hurt, or had an ERA above 4 and couldn't win, I don't think he would have been run out of town on a rail. But if he even has an ERA close to 4, and misses so much as a start or two, New York will eat him alive. Good luck, CC. I guess it really is about the money. You didn't need to criticize our small-market team to justify your moneybags. You earned it. And everything that comes with it.
  5. I second everyone who says birth. That's just the way it is.
  6. Thanks, man. Takes a bit of the sting off the loss. Just a little bit. You know, that's why I like when other team's fans come to Miller Park, as long as they're not Cubs' fans, because they offer us a chance to get to know new people and get different perspectives on things. Hope to see you at Miller Park next year, and thanks for taking Jenkins off our hands!
  7. What about old scrapiron? Just kidding.
  8. This is the day the season died. September 14, 2008. Sucks. I can't believe I have two years of playoff tickets that will sit in a drawer for all time. I didn't even get my tickets yet this year and already we're done. I think the Brewers should stop selling these things until we've locked up a spot, and then on a game-by-game basis. I'd rather have that kind of chaos then the obvious Karma implications of selling tickets in august or early september when nothing's been clinched.

  10. my sister used to waitress there in 2000-2002 i believe. I never ate there, but used to live two blocks down Henry st. from it. Seemed nice. Right next to that hippie store and across from the civic center.
  11. Best Greasy Spoon - Ted's (62nd and North Ave, Milwaukee) Best Restaurant - Eddie Martini's (Watertown Plank Rd. Wauwatosa) Best Organic (Runner-up best restaurant) - Roots (Brewer's Hill, Milwaukee) Best Mexican - La Fuente (Runner-up La Estacion in Waukesha) Best Sushi - Izumi's Best Chinese - Yen Ching Best Pizza - Balistreri's Ristorante (68th and Wells, Wauwatosa) Honorable Mention Miscellaneous - Crawdaddy's Worst Greasy Spoon - George Webb's. I hate it! Worst Mexican - La Perla I don't really go to bad restaurants.
  12. thanks. Too bad everyone blames Milwaukee for this, when it was probably mostly an illinois crowd anyway. Oh well. Anybody going to Counting Crows or Springsteen? I am lucky enough to be going to both!
  13. Where on the internet? I'd like to see some of the comments. It sucks though, because now we'll never see Eddie, (or PJ) near Milwaukee ever again in an intimate environment like the Riverside.
  14. So I was at the Eddie Vedder show last night, which was amazing by the way, but a Cubs' fan almost ruined it. He kept shouting out "Lukin!" between every song, and every time Eddie had a funny little story to tell he'd scream some more. Eddie just stopped talking then and played the song. He got really angry about it towards the end of the set. It was embarrassing. Then, to add insult to injury, he yelled out "what's the Cubs' score" between songs. The ushers should have found him and threw him out. It almost ruined what was one of my favorite shows ever. Just shows that Cubs' fans suck even worse than we'd imagined. And they all wore their Cubs' gear to the show! Would you drive to Chicago for a concert and wear your Brewers/Packers' gear? Man, I hate Cubs' fans.
  15. We're done. I'm sick and tired of this nonsense. We make up five games in less than two weeks, then give them back in a series. I'm disgusted. I think I'll wear a paper bag to tomorrow's game.
  16. got it. wonder why they changed the channel number?
  17. it's totally gone. the "program search" landed on a channel in the 9000s! It's just colored bars. Help!
  18. It's gone. Formerly 642, it's nowhere to be found on my guide. Did the channel change?
  19. Anybody who has not seen "O", definitely do so. It is my favorite Shakespeare movie and one of my favorite movies of the '90's. It's so heartbreaking yet also beautiful and mesmerizing.
  20. Wow guys, thanks for all the info. It is pretty dumb of ESPN to use years instead of service time, but no biggie. At least they're giving us some love this year. And not just the homer John Anderson, other guys too. Maybe the world really is coming to an end.
  21. On Baseball tonight they showed Ryan Braun's progression up the ladder of most home runs in first two seasons. Didn't Prince have 78? The stat on espn had the most in first two seasons as 75!
  22. oh, and opening-night seat savers are the worst people you'll meet.
  23. Amazing. Transcendent. I know i sound like James Lipton here, but you guys MUST see this movie. It is literally already my favorite movie of all time. Heath Ledger SCARED me. That is hard to do. I'm a pretty jaded filmgoer. Absolutely perfect. Right up there with the best crime dramas, the best super-hero movies, and just the best films ever made. Don't miss it.
  24. what? no mlb power pros 2008? cmon! That game is awesome.
  25. i recommend "Because of Winn-Dixie". Great story about forgiveness and people helping each other out. And Dave Matthews is a pet store guy! And the dog does NOT talk. Important to remember.
