BINGO

Rumors are that Kevin Gilbert (Steelers GM) may come aboard for ’09, bringing a certain lantern-jawed former coach with him.

That's the Brewers owner??

he looks like he’s 30 years old

Mark Grace yesterday said

he’s a real nice, normal guy for a gazillionaire.

My next sig line quote will also be from Lou Piniella, and the first word will be either "Look", or "Listen", followed by a comma.

I heard Pat say

that the crowd today as was yesterday is 50% Cub fans.

by sue369 on Sep 28, 2008 2:22 PM CDT   0 recs

thats cool

but how the heck does that happen when your team is fighting for the playoffs? I guess they don’t know that at the beginning of the year when the Cubs fans buy all the tix

by LT on Sep 28, 2008 2:25 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

maybe the Badgers-Wolverines game?

If the Met and Brewers both lose (or win) today

what are the chances for a Santana vs CC matchup?

by LT on Sep 28, 2008 2:27 PM CDT   0 recs

we need some more runs

Agreed

Can’t believe our relievers are going to do THIS well all day today.

Pat just called Prince Cecil

Even he is relaxing a bit today.

"Cecil" is all he'll hear from opposing fans from now on

after admitting to that hissy fit he threw at Wrigley.

Hill helped him on that at bat

according to game cast, none of those pitches should have been strikes……he’s losing his command.

I wonder why no team uses a shift on Theriot

He never hits it to LF. I’m not sure his bat is that speedy, although he does seem to have good bat control.

I haven't had a chance

to read anything since Friday but I just read an article that said Hoff has baically made the team over Pie. Has that been discussed while I was gone? I really hope Lou has not made that a defininite situation.

by sue369 on Sep 28, 2008 2:32 PM CDT   0 recs

yeah it was discussed ad naseum

Friday night.. A lot of Hoff supporters but not me.
