Those are some funky looking tickets. Is the person who designed them color blind?

Hopefull Trachsel does what Estes did for us in that September start in '03. Can't say I'm too confident in that happening though. Win tonight, that's all that matters right now.

If you don't have cable right now, pay the $50 bucks or whatever it is to get cable for October and then cancel your service after we win the World Series. It's pretty simple.

Good news: we don't have to face Dunn of Griffey. Bad news: it will just hurt much more when we get knocked out of the playoffs by some random guy that no one has ever heard of.

Was he the one who ordered Roy Oswalt's wife to go into labor? I think/hope that was sarcasm because of the Brew's griping during the last 2 days. Not sure what the Brewers have been griping about, but it was sarcasm in regards to Cubs fans who were crying conspiracy theory because the Brewers didn't have to face Oswalt because his wife was having a baby.

Have I not been doing that in this thread? Momentum is something that is basically like clutch, it can always be said after the fact, but never before. Its more about who you are playing, whos pitching, etc... then some fairy tale imaginary thing called momentum. People are going to say the Brewers have momentum now, but what happened to those devastating defeats against the Braves? They started facing a new team, with crappy pitchers, and an offense killed by injuries. So does momentum exist in life then, and all other sports other than baseball? I'm not following the logic that it exists, it exists in football and basketball, but it doesn't exist in baseball. As someone else said, it either exists or it doesn't.
-
Alright keener, well state your case. You're the one that made the declarative statement that momentum is overrated and ignorant and doesn't exist. Why?
-
What would you call it if he came up and struck out? A typical at bat for him. Obviously the player isn't going to hit a HR every time. He's human. But I don't see how, in that scenario, you can't see how momentum can be a factor. Bottom line... baseball players are human. People are affected by momentum. As a result, so are baseball players.
-
How can you say mometum is what caused all that? Teams get hot, pitchers get hot, how can you say that its caused by momentum? How can you say it's not?

Say the Cubs are playing the Cardinals and are tied at 3 in the top of the 7th inning at Wrigley Field. The bases are loaded and Pujols hits a liner into the right-center gap. Out of nowhere, Jones dives and makes the catch. The crowd goes nuts, his teammates are on the field in front of the dugout waiting for him to trot in so they can all high five him. You don't think he's pumped up? So two minutes later he has a ton of adrenaline running through his body, and he leads off the bottom of the inning with a HR onto Waveland Avenue. Is that a result of momentum or is it completely random?
-
Sure it is. How? Its more the fact the Brewers are facing a piss poor pitching staff with tons of injuries to their lineup. They limped in playing them, if momentum was real in baseball, the Cards would be winning these games. I'm not arguing that it carries over day to day, but to say that it doesn't exist is just flat out not true. Momentum is absolutely a part of baseball.
-
Sure it is.

I have no idea, but Ramirez was all the way over by the dugout before the ump tossed him. I really hate that ump. Yeah, but Ramirez turned back and said something again as he was halfway to the dugout. The ump immediately tossed him after that. I don't know what was said, but he said something.
-
Why Floyd over Ward?
-
Not sure. Ramirez said something though.
-
I don't like that bat throw that Aramis did. He tossed him? WTF?
-
That was awesome by DeRosa. No f--ing way, he says. The umpire then tries to say something and DeRosa immediately says "no f--ing way" again this time with a little finger in the air.
-
Hahaha, "no effing way" says DeRosa
-
In the Cards game? Looked like a perfect pitch to me. Are you kidding? That ball was 12 inches inside
-
Which one? :lol: The one that likes to snort lines with a red goatee. Oh, so not the one who got his supply along with his HGH shipments. Just wanted to clarify. No no, if I would've been talking about him I wouldn't just said "the second generation coke head."
-
Welp, I guess Hart won't be starting on Thursday. F you ump, that was not a strike. Who is that, Bruce fat ass Frommeing?

Lame ass coke-head fails to get the runner in from third.

Run a little slower, Pujols!
