Okay now the boos are starting to rain down. Bases loaded nobody out.

6-0 on a David Eckstein double (could change again in a matter of moments).

I do hate that man with a passion

Wow.

So what's the worse collapse. These guys or the Bucks a couple years ago?

Bucks were never leading their division by 8.5 games were they?

I don't know, that's a pretty good question to ask. But I think this Brewer team has more talent then that Buck team did.

It's easier to lose a lead in baseball like the Brewers have done. What the Bucks did was cataclysmic.

Oh he's talking about the 2002 Bucks. Okay yeah that was worse. Something like 26-13 to .500 and not making the playoffs. :nonono:

Nice catch by Miller on one of those tricky slow trickling one-hops to the plate.

Whoopsie.

This team is playing badly in all facets of the game. I might fly up there just so I can boo Capuano on Sunday.

It's pretty wishful thinking to see Yost get fired in the middle of a playoff chase, as bad as we have been.

That being said, I hope that Melvin/Attanasio have bigger balls than Kohl/Harris in being able to fire the incompetent one.

Stotts was a reason that we plummeted to the 8th seed 2 years ago. We left him around for a farewell tour and I know that the injuries weren't his fault but pretty much all of us can agree he was a terrible coach for our team.

Now with Yost he clearly cannot guide a ship into the 2nd half of the season and his track record shows that. I am fearing that we let him keep his job this year and we essentially waste the 2008 season hoping that he miraculously learns how to manage. Please spare us the farewell tour and wasted season and just cut your losses and get someone in here who can do the job.

LOL, Yost puts Cordero in just to get 2 meaningless outs.

Glad to see Yost puts in his closer when we're losing by 6. :nonono:

Oh yeah, that was definitely worse. Cordero now gives up a single to Pujols. Wow.

That team was hobbled with injuries for a good part of the middle of the season, to their credit.

This team, aside from not seeing their ace 1 out of every 5 games for 2 months and not being able to use their struggling CF for a few weeks, has done it with a healthy roster.

The Bucks collapse left me near catatonic. Add in the Ray Allen trade, and you've got utter devastation. The amount of games in a baseball season, coupled with the reality that Ned Yost is our manager has left me with a feeling of, "well, we knew this was going to happen" in regards to the Brewers.

We also need to find a hosing from the officials as bad as the Eddie Jones double dribble that was missed by 3 officials that is as bad and costs us a playoff spot.

Hey guys if it's a flyball and it's close TALK. TALK to see who wants it don't just stop and let the ball drop.

This is worse than watching a little league team. At least you expect mistakes with them.
