[The Truth]

Hoping to see Morgan & Kottaras starting tonight

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Dear Ron

 

It's spelled P-L-U-S-H...write it down.

 

SoCal

 

PS...note to the Wisconsin State Troopers...please take care of Wisconsin's budget deficit this weekend by pulling over every drunk with Illinois plates on the 94.

Hoping to see Morgan & Kottaras starting tonight

I'll second that! Now I'll go back to steeling myself against those visiting fans who don't all quite get the concept that they're "visiting" and not "home."

[thablingster]

The Truth and hawing get their wish as T-Plush starts in RF and Kottaras starts behind the plate. I'll be out at the ballpark tonight root, root, rooting for the Brewers. Hopefully Randy Wolf can keep the string of good starts going by our starters and we can get on the board early against Z.

[GoudaBrew]

I really wish RRR would break up the lefties. Or better yet simply swap Morgan and Gomez.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Yeah, he just keeps sticking with Gomez in that 2 spot. I would definitely have Morgan and Gomez swapped. Oh well.

[hawing]

I look forward to hearing for myself whether Cali changed his walkup music.

[Teatoe993]

It's been a week into the season and I still have yet to watch the Brewers on television. These WMLW games are getting ridiculous.

It's been a week into the season and I still have yet to watch the Brewers on television. These WMLW games are getting ridiculous.

I hear ya. Green Bay sucks to be a Brewer fan. Honestly, I can't watch the Crew and I have no desire to watch a Bucks game other than watching Jack Sikma and Ricky Pierce tear it up. Wait, they're retired? When did that happen? Oh, that's a long time ago. Then who do they have now? Who is that? Never mind, no Bucks game for me.

[RobDeer 45]

I'm not worried about Wolf overall but I am worried about him early on. I feel like it could take him awhile to get in a groove like last year. So this could result in some big ups and downs in the first few months. Here's to him having a big "up" night tonight!

 

I'd reallly like to get this first one! Makes the other two games less stressful.

[Yeti73]

This is usually the series that gets Casey out of funks. Maybe I'm just misremembering, but I feel like he's been key in the few wins we've had over the Cubs lately.

 

Sadly MLBTV will be blacked out today and I'll have to watch on WGn

[prophet]

My guide says it's not on WGN here. It's a bunch of crappy sitcoms, then news at nine.

[davemakovec]

I hope they can get the bats moving tonight and keep this winning streak alive. Beating the cubs is very important to me.

[joepepsi]

Biggest rivalry for the Brewers; first game of the year against the Cubs. And Wisconsin baseball fans outside of Milwaukee will not be able to watch the game.

[Ennder]

We haven't had a winning season against the Cubs since 2005, this would be a good year to start.

[crewcrazy]

WGN is only airing the Sunday game of this series, so those of us without access to WMLW will be without Brewers baseball for the 4th time in 8 games. I have a pretty lengthy rant on this, but I won't waste the space here. Ugh.

[BuckyBrewer61]

Man do I hate the Bucks. I feel like I've asked this too many time with too many rejections, but does anyone know if there's any way to watch the game in Madison? Any chance a bar or something could have the feed?

[trwi7]

Game is listed on 442 on DISH in Madison.

[Hammer]

Is the game available on Charter in the Fox Valley?

[BuckyBrewer61]

Game is listed on 442 on DISH in Madison.

 

 

I have DISH in Madison, but channel 442 isn't even on my guide...

[crewcrazy]

Guys, let's avoid sharing ways to circumvent blackout rules. They stink, but Brewerfan getting a cease and desist order would stink more.

[ilovebeer]

Kick the scrubs butt, that is all I am asking for.
