Draft Day Bucks thoughts…….

The NBA is a league centered around superstars.  The teams that win typically have one or two superstars and a good supporting cast like the Lakers (Kobe, Pau) and the Celtics (Pierce and Garnett).  Teams that have too many superstars (Mavericks or Barkley lead Rockets with Hakeem and Drexler) never seem to live up to [...]

Anthony Graffagnino is Back in Baseball

You may know him better by Tony Graffanino, but according to Wikipedia, Graffanino drpped the ‘g’ after too many mispronunciations from minor league announcers.  He signed a minor league deal with the Cleveland Indians.  I wish him the best.  A part of me had hoped that he may come back to the Brewers to provide [...]

Tiger

Tiger Woods is Bad Ass.  I thought he was having trouble because he previously had surgery, not because he had additional injuires?

All-Star Balloting

Let me just throw this out there right away:  Fans deciding who is in the All-Star game is bullshit.  Fans voting for the All-Stars result in the same players getting to the game due in large part to name recognition.  If I was a player that would piss me off.  If I were having a killer season [...]

Javon Waker Gets Beat

I know he isn’t anybody’s favorite wide receiver here in Packerland, but I don’t think anyone would wish this on him.  Oddly, the fans in Oakland don’t seem to be taking a shine to Javon based on some of the comments. 
Seroiusly, I hope he gets better, but I have two questions:
1.  Who are you out [...]

In Between Hops

Brewers off day today, does that mean I will get more stuff done after work………..I would say no.
Thanks to Chucky, the crew scratches out a win Sunday.  He has pitched great since joining the rotation (outside of the game against the Braves).  Who would have thought he’d be getting the Brewers quality starts and have [...]

Playball!!!……Week 3

Once again, our multi-talented player/manager/field reporter has the story….
Crushers Destroy Emmers I
SHEBOYGAN–Chad Schreiber looked like the type of pitcher that managers dream about. The right-hander has played a major role in helping the Crushers to the franchise’s best start. Schreiber stayed on Route 66 all night as he one-hit Emmers I in a demolishing 14-0 [...]

What? He said what?

It’s getting frustrating. Sheets gives the team a good start. Nice. Offense provides some offense. Spectacular. Villanueva pitches a clean 7th. A 10 pitch clean inning. Decent. Ned Yost having to get his ass more involved than it needed to be. Typical.
Why do you remove a [...]

Let’s Hear it for the Crew!

10-1 win over the D-Backs today! Hooray Win! 6th straight victory; winners of 9 out of their last 10; back to back sweeps. Now let’s keep this rolling.
So, let’s gaze into my crystal baseball and check my pre-game thoughts…
First thought was can Manny be Manny. Check. Here’s his line – 7 [...]
