2007 Vent Thread, Part 1

[Time for a Miller]

Yes, there is definetly a lot of room for debate on whether or not Bill Hall can ever reach an all-star game. But talk to your average Joe six-pack, who likes his cars fast and his Sportscenter loud, Bill Hall is the best thing to happen to the Brewers since they started serving beer at baseball games. I was just venting about the individuals that consider themselves Brewers experts, but watch more hours of Sportscenter during baseball season then Brewers games. It is annoying to me, since they know I'm a Brewers fan and try to talk to me about Hall, then disregard my opinions when I don't subscribe to the Bill Hall=MVP candidate theory.

Sounds great.... that thread's sweet & hilarious

 

Sadly, the Great Message Board Crash of 2005 reduced a 9-page thread of pure gold down to just 22 remaining posts.

 

Sometimes I wish Brian would let bjames back in just so we can get some new material for Woah Solvdd.

I hate how when people talk about somebody they use All-Star to make you think the player is good. Think about this. Former All-Star Johnny Estrada. Sounds pretty good until you start thinking about this, former All-Star Geoff Jenkins. I am not saying that I don't like Estrada. I am saying that I don't like how it was presented when we got him in the trade. All you heard was that he was a former all-star and how he hit .300. Both in my opinion are misleading, especially if that person was a lone all-star representative.

[Invader3K]

I'm not really concerned if a player, especially a Brewer, makes the All-Star team...if they do, great, but there are so many factors that go into the selection each year that have nothing to do with how good a player has actually performed on the field. I mean, when most of it is based on fan voting, a lot of deserving players will get overlooked in favor of "names" or whoever is popular at the time.

 

I think that Bill Hall is legit...but I do worry as well that a lot of the team's hopes for 2007 are riding on him and the other young guys making HUGE steps up in their game.

This team has to win. Bill Hall is not the guy that should have to carry the weight of this team and its hopes to playoffs. No one player should feel that burden or should the media pin some players. Media likes to have a point man for failuers when it is a team game. Lose as a team and win as a team.

 

A lot of players need to grow more this year. Hart, Fielder, Weeks, Hardy, Cappy, and Bush for starters. I think that Bill Hall's number will take a bit of a dip, he had a great season last year. Some people think it is going to be the norm, I don't see that.

[logan82]

I am tired of Brewers fans saying that the Cubs can win the division this year. How can you pick a team that is supposed to be a rival over your own team? It's not like the Brewers are supposed to suck this year.

[sheetswannabe]

Former All-Star Dan Kolb! haha

[logan82]

Yeah that tops former all-star Geoff Jenkins. I am jealous I didn't think of that.

[UeckerAddict]

Former All-Star Ricky Bones.

Former All-Star Mark Redman.

Former All-Star Derrick Turn......... Give me a few months on that one.

[jason21nl]

season hasn't started yet...and I'm already sick of hearing about dice-K...

[BrewCrewWS2008]

The only thing i can vent about is the most worth piece of crap on the team Kevin Mench, there is no need for him with Gross and Gwynn Jr. trade him for he can pitch a fit on some other team when he's riddin the bench cuz theres noway hes goin to start her. I really dislike Sherk almost has much as the Cubs which happens to what i hate most in life! haha

[UeckerAddict]

is the most worth piece of crap on the team Kevin Mench

 

You think he has the most worth? I would have said Sheets.

[BrewCrewWS2008]

My bad haha worthLESS!!! Sherk has no worth once so ever, just like Steve Moss im really not a fan and dont know why people like him.

 

Ben Sheets will be back to form this season I think and Villanaeuva should be in the rotation

[TooLiveBrew]

It's Shrek, in honor of his likeness to said character, but perhaps you're coining a variation here?

[rluzinski]

most worth piece of crap on the team Kevin Mench, there is no need for him with Gross and Gwynn Jr.

I'm sure Gwynn could crush Mench's numbers this year.

[mothershipconnection]

Sherk has no worth once so ever

Did you post drunk two weeknights in a row? Impressive.

[thefutureishere2006]

heres a vent...

 

if greg oden and dice k were to some how reproduce ....ESPN would want that baby...

 

sickening the love those 2 get...

[jlau20]

Former All-Star Ricky Bones.

 

Isn't that the truth.

 

1992 Rookie of the Year Pat Listach?

[lithium75]

I think he was referencing Sean "The Muscle Shark" Sherk, the Lightweight champion in the UFC. Although I have no Idea how much worth he has to the Brewers, though.

[foamboy1]

Prediction:

 

93 posts before the season opens. We'll double this number ten days into the season.

[southpaw121505]

BLISTERS!!

 

Up 1-0 in the 3rd (today) against 11th ranked Juco in the country, until the fattest blood blister I've ever seen swells up on my throwing hand

[logan82]

I am tired of all the people who still asume that Weeks is a poor defender. I am not saying he is great, but he made enough of an improvement over the last 40 or so games he played that he should be given the benifit of the doubt as far as being a solid defender.

[EsoxLazer]

Southpaw, where do you play?

[Brian the Automator]

Ben Sheets finds a way to blow a one-hitter.

 

Same 'ole Brewers.

[thefutureishere2006]
