Brent Brent Brent - Gunslinger to Mudslinger

Posted on 5:48 AM by Unknown
Talk about passive-aggressive.  In an interview Favre, of course, talked about himself when asked about Rogers.  " the talent around him is even better than when I was there. So I’m really kind of surprised it took him so long."

Sort of like saying that Paul Goldschmidt's grand slam last night was good but . . . .I'm surprised he did not hit one sooner.   Gee Brett, congratulations on retiring, I'm surprised you did not retire sooner.

Speaking of the Brewers - in the 3rd inning I said - get this guy out of there. Of course coach could not but I've seen Marcum pitch a lot this year and TO ME, his body language was screaming at me that he was not comfortable.  I knew 100% that at some point he would blow up.  I don't know what was happening between him and Lucroy and I have not found anyone talking about it but there was SOMETHING between those two guys. 

BUT - didn't matter. Brewers only scores 1 run anyway.  Tonight the Brewers go against a leftie and we should have Gomez in center (better fielding). Brewes do well against Saunders who is a flyball pitcher.  But then again the D-backs do well against Wolf. 

-------------------------------------------

For anyone wagering on Football I have a "B" game this week.  Take Buffalo +1.5 at home against the Eagles.   Bridgejumper is 32-16 in these system games over the last 20 years!
---------------------------------------------

Rumors - What I don't like is that these rumors so far have always come true - the compensation for State Employees sick leave is sounding rather . . . dire.  This should come out later this month and it ;s BUTT UGLY!   Still rumors.

-------------------------------------------------

I'm getting ready for the Pumpkin Patch Festival in Door County this weekend.  busy busy.   I was at work yesterday at my old real job.  Bigness as usual.  I worked hard all day on a task and when I finally got past a big hurdle after 6 hours I was told . . OH, never mind we don't need that.     sigh!

Oddly - the place was really quite . . . . was never that quiet when I was there . . . .hmmmmmm.

Ale Asylum is moving to a new place on Airport Road.  They will be able to brew 40,000 barrels year can expand. Correctly they are in the 8,000 barrels a year.     

------------------------------------------

OH - remember Walkers call center to create jobs?  It received 113 calls that got a recording.  39% of the calls were not called back within 24 hours and 0 jobs were created. 
--------------------------------------------

Since I was looking at odds.   It's 50/50 for which party wins re-election and you know - I don't care. I'm not going to get all anal and ruin my life wringing my hands.  Life is way to short to put a black cloud over my head in anger over who is President.  As long as we are not in some stupid war (I was for the last war IF done correctly . . .which it was not - they should have taken Powell's advice). 

----------------------------------------------

hmmmmm - just saw a Robin, I had not seen Robins for a while, they must be moving south again.  I also was a Eastern Blue Bird the other day.  The problem now is that when I fill up my feeder the chipping sparrows devour in in 4 hours.  It's like they take a bath in the seeds.  

Oh well.

I gotta run  have a GREAT warm day
