Baseball Pissing Match

[Mayor McCheese]

I am surprised no Cub fan called me out in saying the series is 4-2... its actually 3-2 Brewers on the season, but you were all too worried about the dynamics of roofs to notice an obvious error by a Brewer fan, which would show a lack of baseball "intelligence".

[IAmMarquette]

You know who really couldn't handle the 60 degree weather on opening day?  The Brewers.   They played the field with winter hats over thier baseball hats in the first inning.

Funny how they took them off in the 2nd inning after the bleachers ripped them apart!

Yes, I'm sure our veteran, gold-glove center fielder, reigning Rookie of the Year left fielder, and criminally-underrated right fielder were so concerned with what a bunch of drunken idiots/chicks in heels drinking wine were yelling at him that they removed their stocking caps. Give me a fucking break.

[IAmMarquette]

It's funny, high rollers like Mark Cuban seem to be fine with it.  Today was his second visit!

Wow! He's been there exactly as many times as I have! Don't think for a second that if he bought the team he wouldn't do MAJOR renovations, maybe even (GASP) sell naming rights.

Or most of last night we were all trying to figure out how many more runs that turnbow would give up

Thanks for your money!

[IAmMarquette]

And it does change the fact that it needs to be gutted, because it will be gutted shortly in the future. I guess someone is a little insecure with peeing next to another guy.

I don't think its anywhere near 'dump' status. Chicago Stadium was a dump, County Stadium was a dump, Veterans Stadium was a dump, Wrigley is nowhere  'dump' status.

Thanks for making my point. It's getting gutted because it NEEDS TO BE GUTTED, just as I said.

I don't remember concrete falling on fans' heads at Miller Park, do you?

Things must look awfully distorted through your blue and red glasses...

[IAmMarquette]

Thanks for your money!

And thank YOU for coming to Miller.

[robmufan]

Your welcome, I go to fund another racing sausage, and will keep going until i hear that they are creating another one!

[robmufan]

Yes, I'm sure our veteran, gold-glove center fielder, reigning Rookie of the Year left fielder, and criminally-underrated right fielder were so concerned with what a bunch of drunken idiots/chicks in heels drinking wine were yelling at him that they removed their stocking caps. Give me a fracking break.

Also, if you want to talk about baseball "intelligence" you may want to check your lineup on opening day.  Last time I heard, Tony Gwynn Jr. isn't a veteran, nor does he have a gold glove!

Just water falling on them. 

When is the last time concrete fell at Wrigley?  Oh yeah they took care of that a long time ago.  Come up with something new Brewer fans.

Congrats, you just lost to progressive field...I mean Jacobs field!

It was 3-1 at the time. Rest assured, I caught it, but there's not a lot of difference between 3-1 and 4-2. Unlike, say, the difference between 1st place and 3rd place.

Why? What else do we need? Your stadium is FALLING APART. By "took care of that", is this what you mean?

"The first would be life, health, safety construction. You've got nets holding concrete, stuff like that. We want to make sure the infrastructure is strong.

I seem to remember another place where the stadium was literally falling apart. Remember the Kingdome? Remember what happened to it?

Last time I heard, Mike Cameron, an 11 year veteran and 3-time Gold Glove winner, was back starting in center.  If you want to call someone out, you should prolly have your facts straight.  Did you even watch the last 2 games?  If you did I would think you would know Cameron was back, especially after the big night he had Tuesday.

Missed that part, but I'm pretty sure Gwynn wasn't too concerned with the idiots behind him either.

If your going to jump into the convo know what your talking about.  Even IAMMARQUETTE admitted he didn't read that part.  Maybe you should go back and read what i said!

Class!!!  Anyone just see food/beer thrown from the stands on the brewers left fielder?

Nope, didn't see it. Just another benefit of watching WGN (besides not having to listen to Bill or Dave Nelson). I did however see Prince get owned by Soto at the plate.

Been watching the game, can't say that I did

Thrown right at Braun. Putting the ASS in CLASS.

Didn't see it????  They showed the replay about 10 times on FSN...it was the play at the plate...

Guess it shows the media bias...

By play at the plate do you mean when Kosuke was called out? (He was clearly safe but that's a different matter.) I'm guessing WGN didn't capture it on tape, in which case there is no bias. But I will agree that there is obviously no place for anything like that in the game.

[robmufan]

It's funny, they have showed the Marmol K's about 10 times! Your right, I guess WGN does show a bias! They show baseball!!! BADDDDD WGN!

My bad Rob, I should have read closer.
