    I'm not gonna lie last year was really fun, given that we haven't been close since 1992. However, this team is really, really fucking good. Yesterday when I was watching the game it was the first time that I can remember looking at another 'good' team and thinking that they were nowhere near as talented as the Brewers. That said, we can fuck things up the rest of the way. C.C. and Sheets the next two days will hopefully clinch a series win...a brooming would be nice, but the crew haven't won more than 6 in a row in like 5 years or something.

    Damn...another nice win, though a few more runs would be sexy. I guess the next problem is whether or not Sheets can overcome his recent second half stuggles? The answer to this question is probably the answer to our happiness. BTW any word on Gallardo? If we are "all in" as people have been saying then get that young man some HGH in his ACL (probably doesn't work but still) so that our real #1 prior to Sabathia gets back on the field.

    I'm off the bandwagon. Not because I don't still believe, but I was obviously bad ju-ju for the Brew Crew. Good luck without your newest fan. Cubs suck!!!!!!! :mad:

    I'm out for the weekend for a wedding, but I hope by the time I get back Ryan Braun is back in the lineup. It's funny there was an ESPN computer ranking that I can't find right now, but early in the year when the Brewers were in last place they had them ranked 6th because of strength of schedule or something. I didn't believe it, but it looks like we are finally facing bad teams, and doing what good teams do to bad teams.

    P.S. Rumor has it that a certain pitcher who is better than Ben Sheets but probably not C.C. that tore his ACL earlier this year is about to start a throwing program, and is traveling with the team! It would sure be nice to have him dealing his Pedro-like stuff in mid-September if only for 2-3 innings at a time.

    Is there anyway Ben Sheets realizes he's a good player in time for him to keep a win streak going? It seems like the Crew comes up short every time he pitches lately.

    Where are the rest of the Brew Crew followers on this board? Do you guys realize how important today and tomorrow are? With 4 winnable series left (Pirates, Padres, Reds, Pirates), and 4 toughies (Mets, Phils, Cubs, Cubs) I'm guessing we go about .500 down the stretch which puts us at between 88-94 wins (hopefully the Cubs lay down in the last series b/c they hate the Cardinals more). If we can take at least 1 of these games that will make it tough for the Cardinals don't you think?

    Brewers won't make the playoffs.
    Why not? I think we have a winning record against all of our future opponents, besides the Cubs, what will stop them from getting there? I'm not suggesting that they definitely will, but you seem to be pretty sure they won't and I'm wondering what your reasoning is? I mean the Cubs never lose games, but have only gained one on the Brewers since the 4 game sweep.
