  1. sorry yo, but someone sent me a message to my inbox 3 minutes before you.
  2. Is anyone still planning on a Noah's Ark trip this summer? I was supposed to go to yesterday, but we never made it and it will only get wasted. Ill send it free to the first person that replies.

  4. Homer: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon? Lisa: No. Homer: Ham? Lisa: No. Homer: Pork chops? Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal. Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.
  5. Ralph: Hi, Super Nintendo Chalmers!
  6. you are right http://www.brainyhistory.com/events/1996/september_16_1996_174232.html
  7. What i don't understand is that if for the last 15 years colleges have been forced to change their logo or nickname because some have found it to be offensive, why a poster thinks he can't have whatever he wants as his "logo". If memory serves me right some Indian groups supported Marquettes use of the name Warriors while other didn't. Marquette still went through with the name change. while this poster may of been jewish and not offended by it, it didn't mean that other didn't.
  8. everyone else on this site picked an avatar that promotes individuality and at the same time does not offend. I choose to honor my favorite baseball movie. Some choose their favorite musical artist, baseball player etc. What the poster does not understand that Brain is the owner of this site and can choose what is and is not offensive. I know that deleting the avatar was not a fast decision and a one that was made alone. Since he explained himself and got his avatar back, i do not understand why he continued to attack posters who felt the avatar was inappropriate.
  9. Thanks for Brian for bringing up this topic. My feeling is that this is a baseball website and while noone can seperate them selves from their political feelings, religion, sexual orientation, etc this is really not the place. When I saw that avatar for the first time I had the same reaction as some of the staff that it was degrotatory to the jewish people. I used the example that Marquette did not find the humor when students made a push to nickname their team the "Jumping Jesuits". As a catholic and alum, I felt that while it was creative it was somewhat offensive. I never have figured out why he felt a sense a pride calling his fantasy teams the Jewboys. I think you were perfectly within your right brian to try to take away that avatar. The hebrew hammer is a nickname of a brewer and i think its completely different than jewboys. Personally I have never been offended by another poster on this site. I do like the off topic area of the site, but have seen numerous cases where simple topic stray away and get out of control. The Falwell one comes to mind. I started out that one because it was the death of a famous person and it got out of control very quickly and was locked. I love the fact that i can discuss the bucks or the news of the days without having to deal with the trolls on other bucks or sports boards. I just hope in the future that situations like the one the last 2 days in the issues thread can be avoided and i think an open dialog is the best way to do so.
  10. it be better if she had a brewers shirt on, but whatever
  11. I think that once you are married you should delete your accounts. The best thing about myspace is that bands put up songs before their album comes out and you can check them out. Facebook is good to find old high school and grade school friends, but other than that i have no use for either. Myspace has quite a problem which being solicited by woman to pay for naked pictures. I took care of that by upping my security settings. Last week i had my first solicitation on facebook now that they let anyone in.
  12. the first time i saw that avatar it caught my eye too, and of course i had no idea whether you were mocking the jewish religion or not. I do know that I would never use my religion as part of my fantasy football nickname, but thats me. That would be like if Marquette actually did change their nickname to the jumping jesuits as the students wanted a few years ago.
  13. i know atleast myself never implied that the place clears out at 1 pm for bobblehead games, still though 500 people is rather significant (even though its about 1% capacity). Thats 500 people that have to miss a game that they want to be at and have to pay atleast double for a bobblehead on ebay if they really want one.
  14. I think as the team has gotten better and tickets are more difficult to get the brewers should review their all fan promotional guidelines. This whole problem would go away if the changed it to 1 per person over the age of 2. I get very annoyed watching people leave the stadium at 1230 with 10 bobbleheads. If people don't want their bobblehead and they sell it inside or on ebay, i have no problem with that. The fact that some people will go through the effort to go to the stadium with a bunch of tickets, leave and sell their bobbleheads for about a 10 dollar profit is amazing to me. Unfortunately this bobblehead craze started as a great keepsake for going to a game and now has become a business. I try to go to all the bobblehead games so i can get one for my shelf. I do not care if it is a retro, i do not try to get both, i would never sell my bobbleheads, and because some don't see it like that, people are stuck getting worse seats than they would otherwise or getting shut out completely. Also as BCin2004 stated, I am 27 and enjoy collecting bobbleheads too, and i know many other adults share in it. Plus by giving them to kids, will only mean that these losers will try to get them from kids, get kids to bring to the games, and since they will be more rare get more money for them.
  15. i am with hawing on that one, my previous one Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, might of been cool but a pain to log in as
  16. yeah if green can get this one in that would be nice, 2 straight outs with a runner on 3rd is no good.
  17. not sure from gameday if it was just that his pitch count was up or if he is hurt.
  18. well atleast castro can do that do the brewers and cubs.
  19. I usually go with the fighting donkeys (from Steve Czaben's sports on the hog in milwaukee). I am always looking for something creative though, but i wouldn't feel right about using the vick angle. I was thinking doing the Milwaukee Bonecrushers, since noone from my league is from Milwaukee.
  20. For Parra to be the long man that would limit his innings. I know he has had injury problems in the past so going easy on him is not a bad idea. Spurling got us out of a major jam on tuesday and though i have ripped him on numerous occasions on this board Id keep him here over Dessens.
  21. problem is how long can we go on with only 4 pinch hitters ( really only 3 since he won't play his backup catcher is most situations)
  22. Does anyone know if Linebrink will be in uniform tonight. If so it will be interesting to see who gets called down. I also do feel we need another bat on the bench. What are the odds that Gross gets called up too. He is batting 300 in Nashville since his demotion. (added tags -TC) (added to title -1992) (added tags -1992)
  23. i think he paid the going rate for a pitcher of his caiber. His numbers are not that much worse than his career so how can we say its a mistake. Seattle signing Weaver was a mistake because his numbers are far worse than his norm.
  24. I think during the offseason we may want to look at that, but really I like going with veterans in a pennant race, that we are still in. Vargas has one bad start and people want him replaced. Bush and Capuano has been better of late. Suppan always brings it towards the end of the year. Let them do their thing, parra could be a very useful long man for the rest of the year.
