Time to talk BREWERS!!!!

Yeah I know baseball is ruined and ther Brewerw are almost as severly hampered by Princess Prieb as they are the lack of revenue sharing, but Im still excited. I am probably crazy but I think the Crew should be .500 this year and if Sheets, Wright, Quevedo, and Nuegebaur pitch up to their potential and we dont swing at everything, I think the crew can win 90 and be in the wild card race late, which is something we havent seen in a long, long time. They must finish over .500 to avoid 10 years straight of losing seasons. I think it is time for a coup to remove Princess Prieb.

The loss sucks, but the team has heart. We have the same guys as last year, BUT they play with more energy. I love it. Yelli (boB said it is OK to have two Ls) hope he comes back sone. I thought we lost a very good coach this year. I now have a different feel about that thought. I sure hope we continue with wins. The division looks strong. It's early. We have many winnable games left. Did we leave the pitcher in too long last night? Did the MLB promote Jackie 42 enough? Heck, high school teams have more fans in the stands. Looking forward to a win tonight. Last night wasn't a total loss. I had an extra Brew for 42! Hope they fill the seats.
BBD - He's not in the lineup tonight, so I just was scouring the web for any news if they put him on the IL. I found the MJS just posted that the Brewers will now make a call on Tuesday regarding the IL for him or not. I'll take that as OK news I guess. If it was that bad they would have put him on the IL Sunday or today I feel. Go Brewers!!
Did not get a chance to watch the game but I see we went into the bottom of the 7th with a 4-3 lead. In the last few years the Crew had an insane good record holding that type of lead. Not the case today, but 2 out of 3 against a good Oriole team is still a good series. See Perkins had 3 more hits (1-HR) and he is off to a great start.
You know Kona, I bet your disgust with all things St. Louis stem from their fans actions at Brewers games. I had always heard that and last year went to a Cards/Brewers game wondering if I’d see it. Actually the opposite happened as we tail gated. First of all let me say I was undoubtably mildly buzzed. No one wants to pay those high beer prices inside, so got our swerve on during tailgate time. Was a day game, got there rite when gates opened. About six in our group, next to us was a mass of Cardinal fans all decked out.
We were supposed to have six friends more join us who got detained. So I had brought a passel of walleyes and was frying them up. I noticed the Cardinal fans eating sandwiches!
Well I motioned a couple of them over, said would you like to try this fish. Being from St. Louis they had never tasted walleye. So gave them quite a bit of fish, tarter, fries, all this food we had thawed and we were going back to hotel-they of course loved it, started giving us great imported beers they had and occasional shots of various spirits.
Finally we parted ways, and went into game.
Turns out they were seated two rows above us.
Everytime one of us finished a beer, another one appeared and I don ‘t think I spent more than $8 entire game. Caught up with them again in parking lot, and one of our group suggested we redeyvous at a tavern, but they were driving back that day, so had to leave. Guess moral of story is
They ain’t all bad. You know I can’t remember which team won, but no one gloated either
