Now see . . . THIS is the Brewers team I'm used to seeing for the last 25 years.  

Pitching falls apart, bats are still, and it takes three players running after a fly ball to finally get a catch.  :( [smiley=wtf.gif]

It's business as usual in Milwaukee . . . .  [smiley=hurl.gif]

Don't give up just yet Pat remember who there in a pennant race with.Now if they where going up against the Cards then I would be worried,but it's the scrubs and there nothing special when it comes to crunch time.But it is fun to dream.

They have to get through the next three against the Brew Crew at Miller Park. Not an easy task this year.

Still no Carpenter or Moulder to pitch, and they have benched the veterans and are playing rookies and a retread pitcher (Rick Ankiel) in the outfield.

This could be the make or break series for either team. Sure will be fun to watch.

Best thing I can say about last night's game: they had a 1982 Brewers reunion of sorts before the game. Robin Yount, Paul Molitor, Jim Gantner, Pete Vuckovich, Rollie Fingers. A whole bunch of 'em were fat, grey old guys, just like yours truly. I was hopin' some of their mojo would rub off on the current team, but it was not to be.

Watching baseball is almost as exciting as listening to the farm report on the radio.   ;)

But I do love to watch golf on tv, go figure.

All I can say is that the Cubs have a New York Trained coach. I am pulling for the Brewers cause I want to see that guy fall off the slide when Fielder hits a Home Run. We are barely hanging in there, but the Mets will wake up soon and start pounding teams again. We prefer the Cards cause we owe them one

Thank you for the kind replies, but I was hoping for a reply from my husband.  

In response to his reply to everyone, it was only partly true. I was not upset about setting up his draft or any other specific day, but all the days, weeks and months he has spent hours chatting while we have begged him to turn it off for the night and be plugged in here.  Now the draft is just another distraction for Dave in addition to the hours of chatting.  I don't see a change in sight.  Things are not looking good, someone is in denial.

Well, there's your first mistake, Dave. Never, ever, EVER call her "the wife." You call her "my wife." I like the variant "my bride."

"The wife" is like "the car," "the lamp," "the house." She's WAAAAYYYY too important to you to be objectified like that.

That's very cool, Dave. And who knows? Maybe it'll be the year that they finally broke the curse. The way they're playing right now, it could be.

Pat and I almost got our hands on a pallet of bricks from the old Milwaukee County Stadium. We were going to reface our fireplace. But it was not to be. You know how it goes - people say they're going to do something, but then never come through. Ah, well. We had visions of getting a nice big piece of ash and carving out a mantle in the shape of a Louisville Slugger.

What a division.Any time the Cubs have a chance to gain ground,bring on the choke.Zambrano has been a huge disappointment after signing that big contract.Today 4 and 2/3 7 hits 8 runs and 5 walks.Pretty impressive huh.Not to mention with no outs and he was on first Sorianno hits a double and the big Z tries to go all the way home (running through the stop sign)and gets nailed by 10 feet taking them right out of that inning.What a goof.   >:(

The Cubs have the longest dry spell between championships in all of the four major U.S. sports leagues (MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA), having failed to win a World Series since 1908. The Cubs have not been to the World Series since 1945, and they finished in the second division, or bottom half, of the National League for 20 consecutive years beginning in 1947.

Good team, notice first game score as visiting team, and two shutouts in Det first three there.  Huge momentum.    Damn goat.   ;)


Would love another rematch.   And the TV ratings with the Cubs would skyrocket in the final games.

Winning the division is like winning the world series.Well not really,but you know what I mean don't ya Pat.

25 years ago when the Brewers won the pennant and went on to lose the Series, one never would have known they lost by the parade and welcome-back they were given by Milwaukee.

The parade lasted HOURS because people mobbed the cars holding the players - not "mobbed" in a mob-mentality way, but in an effort to simply say THANK YOU - to the boys of summer who gave us a season to remember.

If the Brewers should be fortunate again to win the pennant, watch for the same thing.  The baseball fans of Milwaukee know all about losing - they are a little rusty at knowing what to do about winning.

Well that counted 1 run the rest let me guess professional ball players got upset and it affected them. :-X
Cut their pay in half if something like that throws them off.
dude was caught up in the moment and if you look at what happened he was not the only reaching just the one with the best grip. they couldnt even see the player over the wall till it was to late.
Kinda like to me when KC beat the birds up and everyone blamed the ump for a bad call. 1 call should not make that much of a difference and neither should 1 play. They got beat deal with it.

Title: Re: The Race Is On
Post by Brewcrew on Sep 25th, 2007, 10:11am
Up here we're praying for the Crew to run the table and for the Cubs to tank big time.

If any team in Major League Baseball can f*** up a 3-game lead with 6 games to play, it's the Cubs. This is not, however, a normal Cubs team. Plus they have a GREAT manager in Lou Pinella.

Title: Re: The Race Is On
Post by MR_FLOOR on Sep 26th, 2007, 12:32am
Well the Cards are pretty banged up right now the Brewers picked a good time to play them thats for sure.And you guys don't have to rub the Cubs choking ability all us Cub fans know its there.But don't forget the Brew Crew still have to face Jake Pevy and the Pods are still in a pennant race.Its going to come down to the wire.

Part of the reason the Yankees never made a move to get Sorriano back ( and there were 3 instances where they could have signed him) was because he doesn't do donkey dink in the post season....which brings me back to A-Rod....It is yet another 0 for 6 for the A-Bomb, and the Yankees are on thr brink, at the edge, almost gone. They'll blame the bugs in Cleveland but as the saying goes it takes two to tango and the Indians had to contend with the same insects that the Yankees did. As for " We Have Pinella" ---you can have him.....he's 1/4 the manager he used to be , and also in a bad position being down 2 games to the Diamond Backs. I would really love to see the Cubs beat the D-Backs but I think it is going to be a tough thing to do.

Ya know Pat I really wish the Brewers would have won the division.I really believe that they would have made a better showing than the Cubs did. That was the most pathetic display of an attempt to win a series I have ever witnessed

Not only where they horrible,but Lou was totally out managed. I think Lee,Ramerez and Soriano were a combined
5 for 39 or something like that. I'm so sick of people talking about "playoff experience" You can take that playoff experience and shove it up your you know what.The only players that did anything in this series was the rookies. Thats why I think the Brewers would have gave the D-Backs a run for there money.

    I can't tell you how disgusted I am rite now. The D-Backs with there 31 million dollar payroll and the Cubs  with there 110 million dollar payroll. Allot of money for a team that never showed, not even for 1 game.

     I guess it's wait til next f**king year AGAIN and AGAIN and, well you get the picture.

Very true,but thats not why I want the Rockies to win. I want them to win cause of the way they got to the playoffs and because of there rookie status. I'm not mad at the D-Backs the Cubs flat out didn't show.Must be all that playoff experience    ::). And like I said the Brewers would have given them a better series then the Cubs did.

I don't know about you Jonny but with a one run lead in the 7th I feel a Papelboner coming on    8)

Privism - A Papelboner lasting 48 hours following a one run shutdown.

Schilling followed by Oakajima followed by Papelbon

An unbeatable combination ;;D

Anyone else think Daisuke is sharp tonight?  He seems to be responding to the world series pressure well.  After what I saw late in the season I'm pleasantly surprised  ;;D

Is anyone else sick of hearing "that's the first time a Japanese pitcher has done X" from Jack Buck!  This guys starting to make me crazy.  What I've give to hear DO and Remy doing the game  ;)
