I have felt similar since word came out about the team meeting the other week. I don't really think that's actually done anything?

Murphy using high leverage relievers in a game when they are down 4 was wildly irresponsible. Just have Elvin throw 3 or 4 innings
Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"

The Bud legacy. Move to the NL for the Cubs gate.

And now Attanasio is following Herb’s MO. Bucks used to blanket Chicago suburbs with marketing. Watch the Bulls in style and for less money here in Milwaukee.

Tied after 1. That's a win.

Increasing the gate increases the chance they don’t leave the city. That’s the reality. If Milwaukee showed up and showed out this wouldn’t be an issue. It’s a business.

And I’m not saying I like it. I hate hearing flat landers cheering for the Cubs at AmFam. And I hate the economics of baseball: it’s stacked against small markets. But I understand it.
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.
