  1. Great audio. I used to watch Mike and the Mad Dog all the time on YES Network. That's a really good show if anybody ever gets a chance to listen to or watch it.
  2. I would say you have a pretty good shot.
  3. Thank me because I'm the one who found it. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif As far as Capuano's velocity I don't ever remember him hitting more than 90. He usually sat around 88-90 in 2006 but towards the end of last year (I'm watching his September 23rd start now) he's between 83-86.
  4. And Homer Simpson.
  5. I'm a man because I'm 40.
  6. A few years back, Dan Gadzuric was a restricted free agent. The Bucks wanted to keep him. Being a restricted free agent means that he is free to negotiate with any teams - but that Milwaukee would have the right to match that offer. We had a similar situation with Charlie Bell this year. No one really wanted to "negotiate" with him, since they suspected the Bucks would just match the offer. In the end, Miami gave Bell a pretty decent offer - and the Bucks choose to match it. In essense, we got Charlie Bell for exactly market value. The problem is, that years ago when we had this situation with Gadzuric, Larry Harris offered him 6 years and 36 million dollars! We could have just waited and matched any offer. We had no risk of losing him. Instead Larry went way beyond market value and handicapped the Bucks with a horrible contract. That is why Larry Harris is a bad GM. Okay we don't know if Harris is the one who actually offered Gadzuric 6 years $36 million. That's the point I'm trying to get across. Kohl, Walter, Burr all of them basically make the decisions on what players we acquire etc. I don't think I can be any more clear than that. The only reason Kohl has a GM is deflect blame onto him when Kohl himself, Ron Walter and Mike Burr should be taking it. I'm not saying Harris hasn't made mistakes, he has, even the best GM's do. However, I challenge you to find one GM in the NBA who has his hands as tied as Harris does.
  7. Yeah she's a good reporter but how stupid would I sound if I said "Your reporting skills are hot!" while I was drunk?
  8. Bah. I should have gone to camp out just so I could say "You're hot, Jen!" while I was drunk.
  9. No I think everyone here will agree that Villanueva is better than Vargas. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  10. So then I said. Don't tase me bro.
  11. Was that Bill Hall who announced the lineup for that one game on FOX referring to Weeks as Rickie "Junk in the trunk" Weeks? He still has it! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Awesome pictures azcheesehead!
  12. Or cows, or chicken, or buffalo. Fish sucks though.
  13. Already bought them in bulk (no pun intended.)
  14. Same as it's always been. Admirals Calder Cup avatar. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif
  15. Every time somebody becomes a vegetarian I just eat more meat.
  16. Roll with the Changes - REO Speedwagon As soon as you are able Woman I am willing To make the break that we Are on the brink of My cup is on the table Our love is spilling Waiting here for you to Take and drink of So if youre tired of the Same old story Turn some pages Ill be here when you are ready To roll with the changes I knew it had to happen Felt the tables turnin Got me through my darkest hour I heard the thunder clappin Felt the desert burnin Until you poured on me Like a sweet sunshower So if youre tired of the Same old story Turn some pages Ill be here when you are ready To roll with the changes Roll with the changes Of course you don't get to hear the kick ass guitar and keyboard solos in this but that just makes it that much better.
  17. And we would've gotten the third most untradeable contract in the league for #1 (Gadzuric) and #2 (Simmons)
  18. The lemurs in your avatar look delicious.
  19. So you basically spend your whole post whining like a four year old and then your last sentence says you'll be back when the adult conversations start back up?
  20. No they don't necessarily lead to higher win totals. Again, look at Sheets back in 2004. GS- 34 (Only Brandon Webb, Roy Oswalt, Mark Buehrle, Livan Hernandez, Randy Johnson and Kenny Rogers had more.) QS- 24 (Only Johan Santana, Jeff Weaver and Randy Johnson had more.) IP- 237 (Only Mark Buehrle, Randy Johnson and Livan Hernandez had more.) Yet Sheets still only won 12 games and lost 14. Why is that? Because his offense and bullpen sucked.
  21. That's nice. Now look at the teams winning percentages. Oswalt's teams were much, much better than Sheets' teams.
  22. That's nice. Now look at the teams winning percentages. Oswalt's teams were much, much better than Sheets' teams.
  23. That's nice. Now look at the teams winning percentages. Oswalt's teams were much, much better than Sheets' teams.
