Brewers wrestling tournament

by Dros on Apr 14, 2005 10:54 AM CDT Comment 6 comments

It's an off day, so of course I was scanning the Crew's roster looking for answers to life's unanswered questions. It occurred to me that this is one that must be answered:

If there were a wrestling tournament devised from the 25-man roster, who would be the odds-on favorites?

I was surprised to note that Branyan/TTO was listed at 6'3" but only 195 - on the uphill part of the roster's bell curve by weight. According to that, he only outweighs Hardy, Mike Adams, George of the Pink and Santos. But it's hard to bet agin' 'im, innit?

Curious,
Dros/27/Madison

my thoughts...

I wouldn't bet against Wes Helms -- decent size guy, and he's angry.

Then again, I wouldn't bet against Brady Clark, either. That guy would rise to just about any challenge.

But the odds-on wrestling favorite of the 2004 Brewers would have to be ... Brooks Kieschnick. That guy could put the beating on anybody.

And sooner or later, we'll have to consider Prince Fielder, who would scare just about anybody on the team.

You're right: anybody who can hit the ball 500 feet isn't somebody you'd want to fight.

depends

Depends on the rules... in an anything goes street match I gotta go with Sheets and his 98 mph fastball, who is gonna dodge that?

very clever...

...I suppose Brady might dodge it, or Durrington if he gets called up.

(as all the Brewers rush off to do more sit-ups...)

I should also say

this is the sort of thread that makes these sites so cool ... I mean, of all the unexpected things to have a conversation about...glad to have you here, Dros.

Sheets....

Reads field and stream and guns and ammo, I'm thinking I wouldn't mess with him.

Damian Miller as well. Don't mess with the catchers.

What about the smallest guy?

Those small guys are the ones that you need to watch out for. Sorta like Joe Pesci in Casino

Does anyone else find ESPN unbearable to watch these days?
