Needless to say, its not really a pleasant time to be a fan of Wisconsin Sports teams. Considering the crew just got demoralized by their rivals from the north side of chicago and the front office of my beloved packers is convinced that we are better team without one of the 5 best signal callers in the NFL, the only optimistic news that can be seen on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is the fact that Andrew Bogut's Team Austrailia stuck it to Yi's China in Olympic tune up games. Not exactly the type of news that makes you want to crack a PBR in celebration (although definitely news that makes you want to crack a case of cheap brandy to forget).
Anyways the loses and the ignorance aren't what pushed me over the edge. What really gets to me is the fact that Miller Park was turned into Wringley North in what was the biggest series the crew has played in some 10 or 15 odd years. While lisening to the games on my mlb radio i couldnt even realize if something good or bad had happened because the decible level of the cheering was the same all the time. My conclusion for this is two fold, one, the cubs bandwagon is getting righteously out of hand and two, miller park is too friendly of a place because brewers fans are pussies. Thats right i said it. We're too "oh welcome to my big beautiful new ball park, see the retractable roof ahhh yes were classy here just come and see the park adn have a good time." Thats bullshit, homefield advantage is huge and we piss it away because we want others to admire our stadium. If i was at game two or three or even four of the series I would have thrown beer and trash on anything that was in pinstripes, specifically targetting old ladies and childern in order to start animosity that would strike fear into the hearts of all cubs fans and make them think twice about coming to miller park for a series against the brewers. Think about it, do Packer fans not go into the metrodome a little nervous that theyll walk out with a viking horn lodged in their ass. Do you Red Sox fans ever venture into the right field bleachers at yankee stadium? Do Giants fans start scrambling to buy seats behind homeplate at Chavez ravine? The answer is no and the reason is becaues the bad blood between the fans has spilled over into the stands. This needs to happen at Miller Park with the Cubs. We need to take our home back and it starts with some good old fashioned intimidation. So this is a call to arms brewers fans....we need to be the equivalent of Eric Gange throwing a ball behind Jim Edmonds. No more Bullshit from the largest bandwagon since red sox nation!
