Brew Crew

Not sure how many of you knew, but I was pretty sick the past couple of days...hence, no blogging. Just lots of TV, some good books, olympics and some napping. So I'm going to keep this one short.

Pitchers and catchers reported to spring training this weekend with the rest of the players coming in shortly. There is a good read in the Journal today (yes, I'll continue to call it the Journal until I die...Sentinel always sucked anyways) http://www.jsonline.com/sports/brewers/84873517.html

It's important that all of us Brewers fans keep the inherent limitations on our team in perspective. We have done a very good job building a team given the current structure of MLB. I think that Attanasio has done a valiant job of spending as much money as he smartly can. Unfortunately, we will always have to compete with the crap teams that happen to have payrolls twice our size but still manage to suck. (Yeah, I'm looking at Chicago)

Anyways, that's really all I have for today. I'm trying to get the last bit of this illness out of my system before the next week starts up. Btw, 6-10 inches tonight??? Did they just make that up because I swear I saw no snow on the forecast for the whole weekend until yesterday at like 5pm? We'll see I guess.

  1. Can't say I'm surprised. Brewers were 80-82 last season if I am remembering correctly. I would hope that we could eek out at least one more win with the additions of Wolf and Davis. I'm saying Over.

    What does everything else think?

  2. Over, as long as I don't attend any games. Yes my friends, my record last year was 1-7. Ouch.

  3. C, I would have thought that record was mathematically impossible if I hadn't been there to witness it. The funny thing is that I somehow managed a near .500 record. Not sure how that happened.

    And this summer C will have much more time to go to games, so we all might be screwed. Just keep her away from the long islands....
