@zachheilprin.bsky.social Overreaction er no? Chris McIntosh cannot be trusted with another football coaching hire. McIntosh’s and Fickell’s futures are tied together. If one goes, the other must go too.

Tunsil is very good. Their RT is a rookie, however. They did seem to be getting away with some stuff a few times tho.

Makes sense. I can't avoid Discord and BlueSky while watching most live sports and the delay spoils a lot of stuff for me. That's a me issue for sure tho.

The only downside is there is a slight delay from the regular broadcast.

@sleepernfl.bsky.social In our Guillotine league, members of our league had IR players forced to their bench, which locked their rosters and prevented some waiver claims. Is there a setting issue we have missed? If not, is there a solve for the future?

Score doesn’t really show it, but the Packers beat the brakes off the Lions in this game.

That 3rd Round Comp Pick will be nice tho.

The only negative of the Parsons trade. Hafley has secured a HC Job. Hopefully it’s after securing a Lombardi Trophy.

Yep. Chris McIntosh is not long for his job. Fickell will follow him out the door.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
Preferably all in one game, tho I’m not sure we’ve gotten a good 2nd half and a good 1st half in back to back game either.

He’s helping Vance Joseph run one of the best defense in the NFL in Denver. Bring me Leipold.

@zachheilprin.bsky.social Overreaction er no? UW should abandon the run game because they can’t move anyone up front. It’s abysmal. Now it seems they can pass protect a little bit tho, so that’s positive.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes and no. Losing guys to ND, Penn State, etc is always gonna happen. Like UW BBall losing guys to UNC, Duke, Kentucky. Losing guys to Minnesota? That’s another thing.

Bucky makes huge defensive play then kicks themselves in the dick on back to back plays only to be bailed out by a horrible decision from MTSU. Lol. Quite a sequence.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social)
Idk where that drive was for the first quarter. Oline looks poopie. McIntosh should not get another opportunity to hire a head football coach.

Ya. I can’t get myself there. Maybe I’m weighing his impact too heavily and the Brewers simply have a strong organization top to bottom and the manager doesn’t matter much to team success.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
You tongue-in-cheek (I assume, perhaps not) mentioned leaving him in Toronto. Is his handling of Ashby and other members of the bullpen a fireable offense in your mind? Or does it have to directly lead to injury first?

I’m actually a little upset about it. Reed was initially issued 1 and that would have slapped and 11 (theoretically) would be available to Parsons. Maybe the argument is they didn’t want a rookie to be the first to wear it, but 20/20 hindsight Reed in 1 and Parsons in 11 is chefs kiss.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
If this requires a lot of work feel free to save the answers for the next pod rather than answering tonight: Devils Advocate for Murph. Is there any analytical argument in favor of his admittedly frustrating bullpen strategy?
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
My bad. It was half a million cigarettes, not packs. That would be insane.

If questionable bullpen management is the price we have to pay for a 100-win season, I’ll get over it.

Ashby can only find the middle of the plate. Can’t believe he was trusted with a 7-0 run lead. SMH.

Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
I gotchu. This shit is unbelievable at this point. I think (hope/cope) they’re much better at backup QB than the last two years tho.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
Can’t blame the OL for that. Non contact on a handoff. This position is fucking cursed at UW.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
That was a big loss. Might see shuffling there all season.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
The implication or I guess my interpretation is that Parsons is a big personality. GB has experience with big personalities. Those personalities ended up traded at the end of their careers, but the personalities were big for several years prior to the trade.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
Maybe if he was 32 years old lol
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
I think they’ll rely on their experiences during the last 3 years of Rodgers and the last 8? years of Favre.

@bartwinkler.bsky.social I’m off twitter. Tell Hornet is said what’s up. Also, how’s Q feeling about Guyey now?? Lol. Finally, get your shit together on MLF quick.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
He's from Harrisburg, PA. Sure, GB is generally colder in the winter, but it's not like he's never experienced cold weather growing up. Not wanting to play in GB because of the weather after growing up in Harrisburg is soft.

Arguing deep into the night/early morning about the Brewers pen after a walk off win is pyscho behavior. Save that for the postseason, fellas. Don’t burn yourselves out now.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
Yep. The concerns are certainly valid. Just hope it's been a lot of "Green Bay is ultraconservative with injuries" during the preseason.

MKE Tailgate season preview vibes to start the pod. Hopefully, the season goes as positively for the Packers as it has for the Brewers!
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
That's fair and if it's problematic for his shoulder issue and could make that worse, absolutely don't do it. I'm confident he's better there than anyone else they can run out there consistently.
Keith Keskinen (@keithkeskinen.bsky.social) reply parent
For now. I would wonder if when Chourio comes back, they move Collins to 2nd and play Brice at SS. Yelich probably sees more time in LF too if/when Rhys comes back.

Or how bout you maybe don’t police how people want to fan. Also, a lot of us are Packers fans too. I think we understand the difference between earned entitlement and wishful thinking.

I’m sorry. I must’ve missed when someone claimed the Brewers were the greatest franchise in MLB. We simply want acknowledgement that we’re simply good this season. Not luck merchants or anything else. Simply good. It’s okay to admit teams are good. The Cubs are good. It’s not hard to do.

Don’t lump us in with them. They should have high expectations and be arrogant. We’re fully aware of our history. I apologize on behalf of the entire fanbase for getting excited for being competitive for 8 of the past 15 years after 25 years of slop.

The Brewers are currently 3rd in all of MLB in Run Differential. I wouldn't say that's an indicator that the Brewers are "squeaking by", personally. The schedule does get tougher. We'll see how that goes.
