Bernie the Brewer is an Idiot
I found this guy via Chicago Tough…
Bernie the Brewer is now PC, and a pussy
Bernie Brewer has been the mascot of the Milwaukee Brewers since 1973. Since that time, the mustachioed man has slid into a beer mug after every home run…that was until 2000, the final year the Brewers played in County Stadium.
The move to Miller Park eliminated Bernie Brewer’s sliding into a gigantic beer barrel. The move was made to prevent the advertisement of drinking towards children. The move angered many beer guzzling Milwaukeeans.
looks like fun...until the juice, of course
The ale-driven mascot will be sliding into a large glass of pomegranate cranberry juice.
“We feel that the anti-oxidants will be good for Bernie and the people of Milwaukee. You can’t live off of cheese and beer and expect to be healthy,” stated health expert Gwen Maline.
Okay. Whatever. Whatever Bernie does, at least the ‘crew will be competing for that coveted third spot in the NL Central as usual.

Silva’s First Outing
Well, at least we Cubbies fans have a new horse to kick.
Silva’s first Spring appearance was great. Not great in the conventional sense, but great in that we have something to bitch about with Milton gone.
~2 Innings pitched
~6 Runs
~7 Hits
~2 Dingers…both by Carlos Quinten.
Good luck dude. AAA Iowa is one hell [...]

Manny Cracks Wise
Look out…Manny is being Manny, again
From mlb.com:
PHOENIX — Manny Ramirez said Monday that 2010 will be his final season with the Dodgers.
Ramirez — 37 and in the final year of a two-year contract — hinted at retirement or a return to the American League as a designated hitter as possibilities, but committed to neither. [...]
Trade Rumors
Really Dombrowski???
The Detroit Tigers general manager has pulled of another blockbuster reportedly signing Johnny Damon for a year and a cool 8 mil. That is the solution to losing Granderson? I’m gonna have to throw out my Tigers cap. Magnum P.I. would be ashamed.
Off-Season Rabble
Chan Ho Park?
Word around the ‘nets is that the real reason that the Cubs are going to arbitration with Theriot is to save money in order to sign Chan Ho Park to a one year deal…
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…
Chan Ho Park: good fastball, great beard.

Poorly Played…Jays Take Gregg
Kevin Gregg excels in giving up untimely dingers. That is about it.
For some reason, the B Jays have decided to throw him a 1yr/$2.75 mil contract for ‘10. He did manage to pick up 23 saves in ‘09 for the C Bears, but looked awful in doing so.
Good luck. [...]

Jimmy Baseball is Back
Jim “Jimmy Baseball” Edmonds is back in the mix….
The Brew Crew has given Edmonds his shot to get back to the Bigs, offering him league minimum plus incentives if he can make the squad’s 40-man roster. The 39 y/o took off 2009 after a solid 2008…I’d love to have him in Cubbies blue. [...]

Damon to Toronto?
It has become apparent that Johnny Damon’s tenure with the Yanks is over, with Wednesday’s signing of Randy Winn to patrol the OF in NY. The short list of his possible suitors is headed by the B-Jays.
If Toronto wants to give Johnny and his noodle-arm a $7 mil, 1 yr deal, more [...]
