The Battlin’ Brewers
Baseball, Video August 5th. 2008, 9:45amA depressing morning: Still no word on what caused the dugout fracas last night. For what it’s worth: Parra is 6-foot-3, 208; Fielder is 5-11, 270. Holyfield-Foreman? Though neither attended Notre Dame, perhaps they were arguing over the Jimmy Clausen photos? Maybe Fielder just hates Canadians?
Still got the Brewers taking the division. Thirteen more for them against Pitt and Washington; the Cubs close with 12 straight against Milwaukee, St. Louis, and then at the Mets and Brewers.

I thought steroids were out of baseball.

TBL >>>> Intern Bill. Parra is not Candian btw.
Drew Olson speculated the fight was because Parra was going in the clubhouse and Fielder said he should stay and watch because they watched his crappy pitching. and then Parra said it wouldn’t have been crappy if he could field a ground ball. ALLEGEDLY.

According to the WWL, a Milwaukee reporter said that Fielder was pissed that Parra was leaving the dugout and not watching the Brewers hit. I would guess that the real reason is that Parra was eating a hamburger in Fielder’s vicinity, and Fielder just couldn’t take it anymore.

TBL on Dan Patrick Show right now…talking about Jimmy Claussen’s stupid ass.

From Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:
“If what I heard was correct, Parra was getting ready to go to the clubhouse after being removed from the game and Fielder took exception to that, with the Brewers batting in the top of the seventh and trying to cut into the 6-1 that Parra dug for the team.
I heard that Prince yelled at Parra, “We stayed out there and watched your (bleep). You can stay out here and watch our (bleep).”
I can totally believe Prince said something like that. He was in an agitated mood about the team’s sputtering offense and wasn’t pleased that Parra caved in for six runs in the middle inning (of course, Fielder could have helped by not letting Joey Votto’s two-run single get by him).
Anyway, Parra scooped up his glove and jacket off the bench and it might have come close to swiping Fielder in the face. He took exception to it and went after Parra, shoving him hard twice before teammates restrained him. It was an ugly scene that players basically attributed to “boys will be boys” afterward.”

Hahaha, the Jerks think I’m Intern Bill?

TBL says the spike in visitors will come from a mention in the Tribune and then he goes on Dan Patrick. I have a feeling I might be getting some work done today when the radio people coming flocking in

Did TBL break the Clausen photos story?
August 5th, 2008 at 10:03 AM
Already gave Wagner a pep talk. MRI good to go – hes ready for action!
August 5th, 2008 at 10:03 AM
you forgot something – “Break”
August 5th, 2008 at 10:04 AM
I only caught the last part. They were talking about what is private and what is fair game to post, specifically in regard to the Leinart photos but I would bet it started with talk about the Clausen pics
August 5th, 2008 at 10:04 AM
wow TBL, thats some good turn-around time
August 5th, 2008 at 10:05 AM
you forgot something – “Breakâ€
Huh?
August 5th, 2008 at 10:08 AM
i liked the tease yesterday from tbl on more party photos…
i caught a jump from cnnsi/truth_rumours site.
irish fan is gonna bring the pain on this.
has tbl jumped the shark? is it even cool to be here? first cow now its the go to spot for national media’s edgy content?
August 5th, 2008 at 10:14 AM
a break if Glazer reporting on Favre. Posting photos someone found on facebook is hardly a break (at least in my opinion).
August 5th, 2008 at 10:14 AM
Ok, I was asking, I couldn’t remember.
August 5th, 2008 at 10:16 AM
TBL didn’t jump the shark, He wrestled it to the ground and held it as Chuck Norris reached in and extracted it’s teeth.
August 5th, 2008 at 10:17 AM
this is my spot, i love telling others to hit tbl. i’m afraid my mom is gonna drop a tbl mention on me.

August 5th, 2008 at 10:23 AM
I’ll recap TBL on Dan Patrick for those of you who missed it:
Dan: “Welcome to the show.”
TBL: “Thanks, Jason McIntyre, 6′0″, 250 of pure gun muscles.”
[ding]
Dan: “Blah blah blah blah blogs blah blah ethical.”
TBL: “Blah blah blah newsworthy blah blah blah blogs.”
Dan: “Thanks for coming on.”
TBL: “A pleasure.”
Did I just about cover it?
