This made me laugh

As we all know, the Brewers Low A affiliate is the West Virginia Power.  I think they should probably change up the wording on this in their merchandise section.  

http://www.wvpower.com/catalog/products/102.aspx

I just don't think this is the message they should be sending. It's a little inflammatory, and hilarious in my opinion. I just don't want one of our affiliates linked to the KKK.

That is bad
Seriously, though --- "Jersey's"?

I can understand how "its" and "it's" can be confusing, but basic plurals is what, 1st grade language arts?

But awesome nonetheless

Fun with quotes
Derrick Turnbow "can" be a closer for a MLB team.

Endlessly amusing
Carlos Marmol can be a closer for a "professional team."
You heard it here first: Turnbow will win the 2008 NL Cy Young.

I love his bat, but let's be honest... .895?
Ryan Braun "plays" third base.

(I know, I know, give him time, he's getting better, etc.)

C. Magruder scored, R. Weeks to second on balk

Too easy, but there's a free pun...
"Ned" Yost "manages" a major league team "grossly."

Et tu, Jeff?
From the recap of the 1986 Brewers' latest game:
Jeff Sackmann was beaming after the game, 'Not only were we making good contact, but a lot of balls we hit seemed to have 'eyes'! I just love winning these tight ones! It was just our day - no doubt about it!'

Say it ain't so!

Oh man
You just know a "good morning, good afternoon, and good night" is coming.

Damn.
I was misquoted. :)

I actually was talking about Rob Deer and said, "those eyes have balls."  But it doesn't make much sense out of context.

Weird, but not weird.

In the spirit of the blog itself, Francisco Cordero is now the closer for the "Cincinnati" Reds.

or did someone realize that white supremacists were flocking to buy the jerseys?
