I am crazy about the Brewers, so I started this blog as a way to get some of my thoughts on the record. I hope people enjoy the effort I take in sharing my opinions, that sometimes even come with facts. I hope to be the good luck charm that drives the Brew Crew to a division title in 2011.

Remember back in 1987 when Team Streak was setting the baseball world on fire in early April? Of course you do. Do you remember who was umpiring at second base during Yount’s dramatic diving save of Juan Nieves’s no hitter? Of course... read more »
