Congratulations to the Milwaukee Brewers for finishing with a 90-72 record, a National League Central title . . .
49 years.
FORTY NINE YEARS this team has disappointed me and left me bitter and angry and incapable of EVER trusting that they'll win a Championship. They would have to be up by six in the ninth inning of game seven of the World Series before I could feel certain of victory.
You think I'm kidding?
In the example above, I originally wrote "up by 5 in the 9th inning." Why did I change it?
Because, hand to heart, I immediately pictured a scenario where they allow a couple runs and some baserunners, fall apart as the momentum swings, and surrender a grand slam to lose the Series. Right here, at my desk, I could see it clear as day, and my heart dropped.
No mas. No mas.
