justBLAZE Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Go Brewers! And I hated the idea of LaRussa becoming Sox manager, but man gotta give him some credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I hope it's Rangers/Brewers so one of them win their first championship. Tigers/Cardinals ---I've seen it. Don't neeed it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hope the Brewers win their next 8 games by a combined 800 to 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexSoxFan#1 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 What's so cool about these playoffs now is that any of these last 4 teams can win, there really isn't a super favorite now that Philly and NYY are history. I'd like to see the Brewers win it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) Pretty evenly matched teams, but the Brewers have to be favored with the home field. They are in great shape if they can figure out a way to win the first two, especially with how this series is aligned. I hope the Brewers win. I find everything about them easy to like. The Cardinals, on the other hand, are incredibly easy to hate in every way other than the fact they've tortured the Cubs for the last 65 years or so.

sunofgold Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Yes, this is the series that I wanted in the NL. Rematch of the 1982 World series even though it isnt' the World Series. lol! Have to give LaRussa props. Never let his team quit just to win the wildcard. One day he uses six or seven pitchers to get the win and then the next game he uses one (Carp). ....while maybe that was a no-brainer. I want the Brewers to win. Heck, one of these days Milwaukee might just be a suburb of Chicago. Some people live in Milwaukee now and commute to Chicagoland area for work. However, LaRussa gives the edge in the managing department. But, maybe the KOTSAY factor will weigh in and help the Brewers win. lol! Jerry Hairston Jr (son of guess who)! Those are the only White Sox ex-factors that I see on the Milwaukee roster. For STL, Edwin Jackson and Dotel....LaRussa! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted October 8, 2011 Author Share Posted October 8, 2011 I've said it before, but as much as I'd like to root for the Brewers, I feel like they would become unbearable and full of themselves if they won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunofgold Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Harvey's Wallbangers! Remember them? Gorman Thomas, Ben Oglivie, Cecil Cooper. Maybe there were more, I forget. lol And which beer do you like better? Busch Stadium or Miller Park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They for sure would. And that's EXACTLY why I hope they win. The Cub fans get b****y enough about the arrogance of St. Louis, lets give them another team that chirps a lot to deal with!

sunofgold Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Brewers are talking way too much before this series. Greinke calling out Carpenter for being "phony". lol! ST. Louis seems the more focused team right now. I still prefer the Brewers to win but I think that Cards have the edge in this series. They have been on a roll since end of season and they have more experience in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 The Cardinals throwing at Fielder because they were pissy Braun hit a 9,000 foot home run typifies why I want the Brewers to win this series. All the Cardinals do is b**** and moan and get offended by everything. Good start tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's talking too much, I just think these teams are rivals and really hate each other that much. Just like when Fielder got hit after the Braun homer. 1-0 Brewers!

That was a team full of characters... I don't care if te Brewers get big-headed if they win it all this year, like someone else posted, that'll be the Cubs' problem. GO BREWERS!!!

sunofgold Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Well Greinke got the win. lol! Maybe some pitching will show up in this series in game 2. Jackson is starting tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunofgold Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 So who is the scorekeeper going to credit this win too. I am assuming Cards hold onto to the lead. Jackson only pitched 4 1/3 innings. I would give the win to Lynn who finished the fifth. So they will probably give the win to Salas who pitched the sixth. lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
