Yosted.

Sadly, that was on 9-holes. I do suck. My swing looks really good...but results are very bad. I've never taken lessons, so I really have no idea what I am doing.

See ball, hit ball. See beer cart, buy beer.

I wanted to mention that I was listening to their show at 4:15 PM yesterday during a discussion about Prince Fielder and they were talking about possibly trading Prince (given the limitations of total salary on the team and LaPorta being around). During the conversation, they wondered aloud about what Prince would be worth in a trade and asked if someone from Brewerfan.net could weigh in as to the value.

All is well again in Brewerfan.net kingdom. Perhaps someone can contact them...

Thanks for taking part in the discussion and everything, Owen. It's always appreciated when we have one more person to talk baseball (or just random things) with.

Someone get that man 20 cc's of pencil protector, Stat (...geek)!

Hat tip to this guy coming on here and "facing the music" at least for as much music as can be generated by a lowly message board.

I've got to go sharpen my pencils now and re-tape my glasses.

Even tonight, he actually goes to Gagne to save the game. I, for one, did not see that coming.

The last 4 days, boiled down to the essential events:

GAGNE: Boy, coach, I sure do stink. No way I should be the closer anymore. I need some time to think, you know, get my head on straight and all.

YOST: What a great idea! It was very brave of you to admit to your problem. Closer-by-committee until further notice.

GAGNE: (scratches head)

An emailer, whilst discussing the Linebrink deal, and the host (Murphy) saying that no one had ever heard of the prospects given up for Linebrink, et al, suggested that maybe he should check out Brewerfan.net to do some homework on the Brewers if he's going to discuss them so he's not uninformed. Murphy went on a tirade making fun of Brewerfan.net and saying that he'd go to ESPN.com to get his info (he mentioned Baseball America too). Anyone who would like to tell Owen what...
