Im watching the local news tonight, hoping they show some of it in sports since I was listening to the radio at work.

I think it is a good think, it's not like they beat on eachother, and it shows that they are upset. Hopefully, it lights a fire and they get on the winning track, or it could get ugly and some jobs will be lost. But the sentinel really didn't add anything more than the obvious in that article.

My guess would be that Yost called Estrada out on what he's been calling for pitches... I wonder if we'll ever know.

[milwaukeesportsfan]

I thought it was between Graffy and Yost. If it was between Estrada and Yost, that could be interesting to see how it plays out. One or the other might not be with the team next year. Maybe both.

 

I'm thinking both.

That couldn't have been fun. It didn't look physical, just people yelling SNY caught it, so I am sure it will be on ESPN in some form.

About a week ago, both of these clowns said the fans were in panic mode. Now they are fighting in the dugout. Priceless!

Well, I guess that beats potentially having to blame his boy Maddux for the recent shortcomings on the pitching staff.

i don't think Estrada is going anywhere, when ever they acquired him Melvin said the reason why he was so attractive is because he was under Brewers control for 2 years. Now that was before we all realized he doesn't hustle, can't take a pitch and can't throw out Gilbert Brown. Yost on the other hand might be on the clock.

Hey did a dugout brawl start the Cubs hot streak? Maybe this will kickstart the Crew back to first place.

[AJAY]

It's about time something like this happened to wake up this team. I don't even know what happened and I have no idea what they argued about. But I already like it.

 

Thank god.

Just to sum up all that we saw, FSN pretty much replayed what they caught in the postgame;

 

It looked like Graffy and Yost were yelling at each other, with Yost being much more upset and being held back by Estrada and Sveum, then as Graffy walked away, Estrada started yelling at someone down the tunnel and Sheets and Graffy held him back. I'm not sure if Estrada was yelling at Yost or who.

 

On one level I'm glad to see the frustration is there with them, because they have been putting up this "everything is fine, we're in first" attitude. It could be a cataylst, it could be a sign that they can't work things out. We'll have to wait to see I guess.

 

As for if we'll ever know more than that, I doubt it, and I think it should stay a clubhouse issue anyway. I'm just going to cross my fingers that they can bleed it out and hit the reset button.

[BrewCrewForever]

To be honest, Im glad it happend. Im just hoping it lights a fire under some players asses and they turn this bus around.

[davego]

I hope they go 2 out of 3 falls. Make a wish gets the proceeds.

[Bruce Ciskie]

Great, now we all have to try to figure out why he and Graffy got into it.

[Nearsighted Views]

I dug how Bush was standing there with his arms crossed looking around like he was guarding a bathroom for the mob or something! He even cracked his knuckles! http://static.yuku.com/v2//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/roll.gif

 

They SHOULD be fighting.

 

That's all I have to say about that.

[jimmyjeromehardy7]

Great, now we all have to try to figure out why he and Graffy got into it.

 

Because they both are beyond frustration with how bad this team has been playing along with the rest of us. I think its a spark.

[burniebrewer]

According to Yahoo, it was Estrada and Yost.

+10 for Ned as far as I'm concerned!

 

Estrada'a been a problem with teams in the past - and not just because of his play.

[BrewCrewForever]

I cant wait to see this video.

Or is this a vent thread deal?

Not a vent at all. Normally, this would be an in-game thread deal, but this is important enough to separate into its own discussion.

 

[jhart05]

Hey, maybe it will do for the Brewers what it seemed to have done at the time for the ScRubs.

 

I say, let'em put on the gloves and meet at home plate.

[BrewCrewForever]

Looks like Fox 6 is going to show it in a bit.

[brettac1]

Once it gets on YouTube, someone should post it in the thread, since I'm pretty sure we can post vids now.

All players coaches and very much managers, are taught how and what to say to various questions posed to them. This is an ongoing process, and all sports teams have media advisers that constantly update the players prior to any speaking opportunities. Why do you think most Pro Athletes all spout the same cliche's? Any player that speaks outside the line is ussually talked to about it. Only a handful can get away with it.(and they better be very good at their job)
