John Axford

although not a pitcher, still my favorite name: Sixto Lezcano

To each their own. And after the past couple days, I’m steadfast in my stance that I will never root for the Cubs. Several Cubs fans (my brother-in-law included) have asked me if I’m rooting for the Cubs. When I say no, I get this incredulous look, followed by a, “why not?” When asked that, I turn it around and ask…

Hopefully by the time my kids are in high school? (my oldest just turned 8 btw)

The look on his face when he realizes he’s facing pocket A’s is great. I’ve watched a bit of the WSOP this year and can attest this is this guy’s schtick - and it’s annyoing as fuck.

maybe, but there are a few Brewers fans that comment too; but I’ll be honest that I had to check when during the season he tore it - I thought it was one of the first series of the year, but was shocked that it was actually not until the first week of May.

Not unprecedented. The Brewers trotted out Yovani Gallardo in Game 1 of the 2008 NLDS after tearing his ACL in May of that year.

It’s great that the Wikipedia entry is “Steven” but then say “Stephen Theodore ‘Steve’ Hauschka”

Ugh. The series that made the Brewers pay a fuckton of money to Jeff motherfucking Suppan.

I traded in a 10-year old Chevy Impala with 200k miles on it and needed about $3000 in repairs (transmission, ball joints, radiator, and a few more things) and got $2500 for it (if the car was a little warm, the above-mentioned maladies were hardly noticeable - especially if you only drive it one loop around the…

If it was fresh cut, maybe. It would still have moisture in it that would LIKELY prevent it from snapping and sending a 4" tree trunk/limb into the vehicle behind it. But if it was not fresh, that is easily just as bad as the idiots in this post

What’s more satisfying: your kids laughing hysterically at your fart or your wife/spouse being equally disgusted by it?

+1 behind

Yeah, there’s been a lot less of the “screw the Cubs” stuff here. I think some of it has to do with knowing the Brewers are going to be terrible the next couple years w/ the rebuild, and some of it being not wanting to hear Cubs fans bellyache about not having won the WS since 1908.

No problem! Enjoy the games!

I wouldn’t recommend Kroll’s for watching the Badgers game. Kroll’s is known for their burgers, but is more of a diner/restaurant. For the game, I’d hit up any of the bars on Holmgren Way - The Bar, Stadium View, Anduzzi’s, or Favre’s Steakhouse. All those places have a ton of tv’s and would likely have the sound of…

Enjoy the game @ Lambeau. I’d suggest hitting up Kroll’s (if you park on the west side of stadium) or the bars on Holmgren Way (if on the east/arena side) if you’re going to be out & about before the game.

I would expect nothing less. That’s what sports is all about - rubbing wins & losses in the faces of others (not sarcastic at all, either)

Yup. That should be the new Brewers motto: “Avoiding Heartbreak since 1987!”

I suppose it is different after 2 SBs but, it sure was not easy to take. That loss & 4th & 26 still are worse to me than losing to Denver in SB 32 (and I fucking HATE John Elway).
