Tapping The Keg Podcast Episode 85

Tapping The Keg podcast brings you another edition with Charlie and Mitch where we discuss a great deal
of things with not much editing so apologies if there are some mistakes there. We talk about the Matt Harvey snafu with social media and why we would like to see more athletes like Harvey using social media in fun, carefree manner.  First real topic discusses the Brewers regarding their bullpen, the Gomez-Cole scuffle and if they are 'Bad Boys' of baseball.*  Second, we discuss the notion the Bucks could be sold back to the NBA in 2017 and are we panicking yet?  This leads into NBA Playoff talk as we go through each series giving our quick thoughts about each of them. Finally, Charlie tries to guess the Packers schedule which includes thoughts on if they could play on Thanksgiving Day night against the Bears plus if they will be playing to open the year.

*The shirt I posted is one I worked on over the weekend, if you like it and think we should print the shirt, let me know. It costs a good amount of money so I would like some interest before deciding to move forward. We just do it anyways - CT

SnoTap's Baseball Thing: Pujols' 500th HR & Matt Harvey's Finger

Many people thought Albert Pujols was done as being one of the best players in the game. He only hit 17 home runs and struggled mightily all season. Pujols might have needed a year to figure out how to hit American League pitching or is finally healthy from all sorts of nagging injuries. Pujols belted two home runs and his second one was number 500.  He is the third youngest player to get to 500 home runs. He has eight on the season and would not be surprised if he ends up with 35+ this season.  

This became a big deal today. Matt Harvey originally tweeted this picture out this morning. Everyone had a good laugh at it, but since the New York Mets are complete tightwads, they got in a tizzy. Harvey said screw it and deleted the whole thing. It still exists on Instagram if you want to see it, I will embed it again, screenshot is only there in case he decides to quit Instagram too.
