Let's talk Brewer Baseball

[Cheesefood]

Um, who made THAT rule?

It's guy rule #1: never insult a man's woman.

 

[the_bird]

It's in "General Chit-Chat," mo'fo'!

And based on your recent postings, I think it's exactly on target...

Fine. Is that your momma, then?

 

[Cheesefood]

Much better.

No, it's yours.

 

[the_bird]

Alright, so are there any other Chubbie fans out there who aren't afraid to put some homebrew on the line? I need some wagering action. C'mon, three beers to whichever team wins the series. Very simple... who's on?

I'll take your bet. How do you want to do this? Dude and I are betting a $10 bottle of store-bought. Do you want to do three homebrews? My Barleywine should be nicely aged by then.

 

[the_bird]

I'm just thinking for the weekend series, but if you want to do something for the whole year, that'll work too. Or, we can go with the same structure as the bet with Dude, just fill me in on the details.

Actually, I propose TWO bets....

For the season series, like you have with Dude; three homebrew or one $10 bottle, sender's choice.

For the weekend series; winner gets to pick the losers' avatar for the following week (within HBT guidelines).

Aw, c'mon, I want in on this, too. BTW is that the season series or just this weekend?

Jeezus, Cheese, you have got some wierd-ass rules about good natured ribbing. You'd never make it in the construction trade, you'd pop a gasket in no time.

Probably. That's why I chose to get an education.

yeah, glad thats working out for ya

Can we get back to the brewers or atleast baseball please?

 

[sause]

So the Brewers have a 22 year old and 2 24 year olds in the infield and 2 23 year olds in the outfield. I say we have a young team. And Brian Brohn is 23 his the next third baseman for the Brewers.

This is much better than working. :fro:

Are you counting The New And Improved Tony Gwynn?

Seems like they're getting some national notice, more people getting on the bandwagon. Pitching's been damn good so far, with the exception of that one reliever. I still think they overpaid for Suppan, but he's the kind of reliable guy they need given injury concerns they have elsewhere in the rotation.

He's one of the two outfielders. Yeah comma Suppan got paid ace-ish kind of money for a three but he's an inning eater and a big change up from the rest of the rotation. The bullpen has being pretty good except for one inning. Had one game that we couldn't get runners in scoring position in but other than that they look good. And since we are playing the Cubs the next series we are going to be 5-1 after Sunday.

Lets not confuse education with intelligence. Not pointing at you; but hate the fact that people mix the two. (yea; I went to college...)

Smack talking starts at 7:05 tonight. I'm not expecting much out of Rich Hill, but tomorrow you've got Big Z vs Sheety. And then the Chicago Debut of Wade Miller. I'm feeling good about our lineup.

 

[Dude]

I'm planning a party for this game tonight. Too bad I don't have any friends.

Is WGN broadcast in HD?

You gonna party in the chat room?

What sucks is that the radio feed I bought is on like a forty-second delay, so when Bernie was watching the game in real time, he'd yell something like "DAMMIT!" when I was a couple pitches behind...

[Dude]

He wants to be the next Bo Jackson.

 

[sause]

He threw out the first pitch at the game I was at... so he took some bp before hand.

 

[Cheesefood]

[sause]

Sause gets to listen to Uecker on the radio when at work tonight.

But it will be sweet to listen to Uecker describing a Brewers win.

 

[Dude]

Great start!

Cubbies teeing off on Bush. The supposed 4th pitcher of this SOLID rotation.

( 8 batters, 7 hits, 6 runs.)
