My son is taking me to the game tonight. He’s picking me up in about 2 hours. We’re going to tailgate, cook some burgers, drink some beer, and then go in and see the game. Believe it or not it’s the first one I’ve been to all season. **AND THEY BETTER FUCKING WIN!** Or I’ll be quite disappointed!☹ That is all. ---

We established at lunch today that every Brewers game my coworker attended was won. I think she’s planning on going tonight, though, so you may be in luck! ---

AFAIK there’s no rule against using “fuck” outside of the Pit. ---

> [@pkbites](#): > > Really? > > How many bold lettered extra large fucks can a guy post and stay out of the pit? Please don’t take this personally, but is that the only reason you started this in the Pit? If so, I suggest you re-read the Pit forum description > [@](#): > > For rants about the world or beefs with another poster. and the rules for posting. > [@](#): > > Rants should be suitable for the Pit > > Cutesy, “I Pit puppies for being sooo cute!” non-Pittings are not welcome here. Put them in MPSIMS. Rants which are genuine but simply too tepid or mundane for the Pit will be moved or closed as we see fit. Lastly, rants about personal trauma that are expected to generate mostly supportive, sympathetic responses will likely be moved to MPSIMS. This is not a commentary on the seriousness of said life events, merely on the best forum for that type of thread. Adding a bunch of naughty words (even really large ones) to a post does not make it a rant. Getting back to my original question, is there some reason besides the profanity that you think this thread belongs in The BBQ Pit? \*\* Gfactor\*\* Pit Moderator ---

> [@Gfactor](#): > > Please don’t take this personally, but is that the only reason you started this in the Pit? If so, I suggest you re-read the Pit forum description No. I was going to continue it when we came home after they lost. Certainly you could wait a little bit for some real Pit worthy ranting my good citizens. ---

Milwaukee seems like a good place to watch a baseball game. Huge beer town, huge sausage town. Probably no big deal if you get sloppy. ---

And don’t get me started on Bill Hall. Does anyone really give a shit if he plays in Milwaukee? I’d really give them a what fer rant, but I’m tired and I have to work at 6am.

I gotta say, they didn’t completely disentigrate. That’s just how bad Carlos Villanueva is.
