Probable Lineu*snore*

WEFFPIM's Tidbits
-Dun duh dun dun, DUUUUUUUN. The Brewers are going for a sweep of the Pirates, which would be the first sweep since some guy named Hoover stuck a tube on his toaster and raked in the dough.
-Tom Gorzelanny was up for that Final Vote All-Star thingamabobber, and I guess the Pirates were trying to get the Japanese market to vote for him since Gorzelanny is of Japanese descent. I'm sorry, but unless Sloth from The Goonies is of Japanese descent as well, there's no way in hell Gorzelanny is.
-I'm sorry, but I have to mention it. Michigan lost...to Appalachian State...at home. Is the Disney company making a movie about the App. State football team that I don't know about?
-Another lefty for Pittsburgh. Maybe the Brewers can steal one of them and give them Chris Capuano in return. He'd be good for slave work around the city of Pittsburgh.
-God my feet hurt. I should stop typing with them.
-Listen for the game to be moved to 1250, since the Packers will feel the need to practice for the opening day broadcast, and patch in pure static, LIVE FROM LAAAAMBEEAAAAUUUU FIIIIEEELLLDDD.
-If I see Vinny Rottino starting I may smash my skull into a nail. Just any ole' nail will do.

Good Luck, Jeff, God knows you have the money to purchase your luck from the Great One himself, and Go Brewers.

Lloyd was pretty awesome. It was always a good time when we played the Pirates a few years ago, except in their place in terms of winning percentage.
Go Bucks!

It's not hate. He's just not good. Kind of like earlier in the year when I was "hating" on Tony Gwynn Jr.

TGJ still has playing better then gross at the time. Only reason he isn't up is because of a hamstring problem. But yeah put miller in today and maybe he will get lucky and get a hit and go 1/4.

At the time because he was getting at bats over Gross. Now that Gross is actually getting playing time he's playing well.

Gross wasn't getting ab's because everytime he was called up to PH he would strike out , TGJ wouldn't thats how he earned his playing time but who cares now.

I cannot tell you how many things are wrong with this statement, but I'll take into account the last four words and be on my away.
