And so it begins
The downward spiral of disrespect from a young Matt Gamel
"You have no honor!" - McClung to Fukudome
Right
First, he abandoned the extra T (you must’ve missed that), and now he’s homering off the Cardinals.
I bet no one told him not to look at Albert Pujols.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
Gamel probably thinks it's spelled
Alber Pujols.
That little bastard.
Also, cheese.

Who is that mysterious new kid with the dangerous attitude?
Gamel Without a Cause.
(Craig Counsell, of course, in the role of Plato)
Ryan Braun: He loves it.

Did you see Braun smile after that catch?
How disrespectful..
He caught off Schumaker
Schumaker has less service time than Braun, ergo the catch was not disrespectful.
Fortunately the catch was not off Molina.
Did anyone catch what the Cards announcers

Gotta be Milwaukee
You know its a trick question, otherwise they wouldn’t ask it.
i have a hard time believing there never was one at county stadium
"Cubs fans boo again – 99% of these people can’t see the plate." -Ueck
Refering to the Aflac trivia question
Which city has hosted more all-star games, Milwaukee or St. Louis.
Depends on if Sportsman's Park hosted a game or not
or if they count this year’s ASG. If they’re couting this years ASG, then I think it’s tied. If not, then it’s Milwaukee. (They hosted an ASG back when the Braves were in Milwaukee)
Cards feed
just gave the same question that FSN Wisconsin did yesterday about Macha versus TLR on the A’s
RIP Rickie's Breakout Season version 4
Answer is:
St. Louis with 5.
Hmm, its a trick, trick question. I think they asked that so people will stop picking the non-obvious choice.
Man, Cards fans really have to hate Braun now

I saw him in Des Moines a couple of weeks ago
And he really didn’t look like he had any range coming in. The Iowa Cubs got bunt singles off of him in the first and second inning, one of them by the pitcher.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
Hmmm
Well I guess we should hope that the Cardinals don’t bunt.

from VLB:
I do not understand why Braun was not hit in the ribs
it would be the perfect thing to do, because 1 it is warranted and 2 the cardinals need to get heated
but hey, they respect the game over there...
"That's not a weird stat. Rickie is a run-scorer," Yost said. "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter," Yost told reporters. "See, you guys have no concept. He's a run-scorer. So there's nothing weird about it. That's what he does."
What I don't get
Is when Cards and Cubs bring up Braun being disrespectful, they always suggest beaning him, and they make it sound like its much more classy to strike someone with a hard object at 80-100 MPH than celebrating a good play.

I'm so happy he's holding steady

if I made shirts that had B.Looper on the nameplate
and instead of a number it had the Mario blooper, do you think people would buy?
I'm still supposed to buy a Looper jersey
I said I would if the Brewers signed him, and haven’t done it yet.
Need to make the down payment on the house first.

Highlights
For the TV-less:
Game’s HR
Braun’s diving catch
I’ll put the FSW version of Gamel’s HR up on Facebook after the game.

Thanks!
Are you planning on getting Gamel’s play at third, too? I doubt MLB.com’s going to have it for us.
I’m just trying to wrap my mind around an amazing defensive play by Gamel, and video would help.

It was a hot shot down the third base line, barely fair. Gamel dove and got it in the webbing of the glove, popped back up and fired a laser beam to first all in one motion to get the guy by two steps.

Yeah, I'll capture that one after the game and put it up too
If they make a highlight of it, I’ll post the link in the game thread.
"I didn't realize his velocity was that high," said Macha, noting that radar readings aren't flashed during exhibition games.
Now I'm not so sure
I want to trade Fielder. Having Fielder, Braun, and Gamel in the lineup seems pretty awesome.

Provided we don't blow it
This has got to be one of those classic Brewer games they show on FSN Wisconsin

Wow

Hall to 2nd
Hall/Counsell platoon at 2nd to make room for Gamel? Or will they split time at 3rd

This is a new and original question
