So who’s concerned about Solomon “Grundy” Torres? Other than me, I mean.

in West Virginia

there’s a high school Grundy with the mascot “the golden wave”

looks like a bunch of piss on their logo. Most excellent.
I had some shorts from there once upon a time (yes, I was in Grundy once).

tell us how many Brewers logos are on the tie, and how that compares to team-logo ties across the league, and you’ll get your reputation back :).

yeah, it's been a decent sports day

not just the brewers making the day today….

as a Tigers fan, the bad from falling into dead last in the AL Central is offset a bit from the news that the roller coaster man Todd Jones is retiring.

As a Lions fan….well, I rue the fact that I won’t be able to scream FIRE MILLEN any more without feeling a tiny bit foolish, but….DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD!

and now the Cubs do right by the brew crew….not too shabby a day, all told

Zeke, Yost and now Millen

It is apparently a bad year to be in charge of a sports franchise while completely clueless about that sport. Any other jacka$$es with cranial impaction running franchises into the ground. And the Clippers don’t count. Them finding a clue is one of the signs of the apocalypse.

I hope the Brewers get more than two hits tomorrow. Oh, and this one sucks all around for the Mets. I feel sorry for their fans.

Now its up to you. Game tomorrow will most likely be rained out, could be made up on Monday if it means something.

Actually, they're talking about rainouts tomorrow and friday in NY.

If so, they’re looking at a doubleheader on Saturday, followed by games Sunday and potentially Monday.

I have an unreasonable dislike of Bill Hall.

I’m in DC, we’re expecting rain essentially tomorrow through Friday night, which means tomorrow night through Saturday morning in NYC.

Weeks' pitch recognition seems excellent the post couple months

I’m sick of all the bunting already, but he should try it once in a while.

You ingrates owe Cub fans free brats this weekend...

We’re taking care of the craptastic Mets for you. We expect a bit of thanks when we trek to Wrigley North this weekend. Maybe throw a deep dish pizza or an italian beef in that sausage race of yours too.

I seem to remember a while back

A very bad Brewers team winning in the final games to help put the Cubs in the playoffs lets just say you are paying back a debt cubs fans

If Loving CC is wrong I do not want to be right

by WSB Chris on Sep 25, 2008 8:04 AM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

question:

Wouldn’t winning Sausage Race be more meaningful if Randall Simon was retained to chase after the meat-folk with a club?

by Thelonious on Sep 25, 2008 12:09 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Everytime I think of that

I find myself wishing a Brewer pitcher threw at Randall Simon in his next at-bat. That would have been cool.
