I sure hope Wisconsin is getting behind the BREWERS.

I know the football seeps from the fertile Wisconsin soil, but the BREWERS are earning some space in the local sports fan's hearts. Let's hope Wisconsin fan's give them a little piece of that love.

Those 6 games against the Cardinals at the end of august and start of september... Those could be some make or break games.

Personally.. this is the best staff the Brewers have had in decades.. and they still have the core of the offensive talent that has made them a top offensive club in the last 5 years or so... the time is now for the Brewers.

At least it better be.. [grin1]

If you think Packer fever is intense, wait till the Brewers get in the playoffs. Complete insanity. Brewer fever tops packer fever ten fold.

We go camping one weekend every month of summer. As you walk through the campgrounds brewer games are on at every campsite its like stereo sound.

when there is a big play, you can hear everyone scream.

at state fair on Friday, we watched the game with about a hundred other people at a food stand that had the game on a wide screen tv.

when the brewers score everyone is high fiving, and going crazy.

I didn't say the Brewers were going to collapse. I said that fans have a certain fatalistic feeling that bad things will happen since they always do. Sure they are cheering and high fiving but they don't really believe it will last.
Of course there is no way to prove it as I think the season is over. But if they do a "Cubs of 69" nose dive and the Pirates sneak in instead you will see people saying that they expected it all along.

not failure. there is honestly excitement everywhere.

A Super Bowl, World Series, and the Badgers Football team having a shot at a National Championship have the state fired up!

In Wisconsin the Packers are tops, there is no questioning that, but when the Brewers made the playoffs a couple years ago, it was a good time too.

Mucky Tundra (22-Jul) : But when I go it, Martha's is the last reply

Mucky Tundra (22-Jul) : Still a little screwy; it shows on the main forum that you were the last person to reply to the Jenkins trade thread
