Never been a point in my life where I've cared less about the Bucks, Badgers, or Packers. Brewers losing to the Cubs at home in a do-or-die would probably kill my interest in sports for a long time.

Baseball is weird and basically anything can happen in a 5 game stretch. Every team left in the playoffs has won or lost 3 in a row at some point this season. Let's just hope Saturday goes our way
I can't second guess starting Freddy because I would have done the same thing, but those who pointed out his home/road splits might have had a point. I'll also add I would have started a very similar lineup as Murph tonight. The team just got outplayed

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"

If the Brewers drop this series, would it rank up there with the packers in 2014 or Bucks in 2019? Or is it not quite that depressing?

Not having Woody is being felt hard. I don't think anyone felt good about Priester going in that environment, should have probably went with the vet in Quintana. Splits be damned, you play to win, no qualms with rolling out Freddy tonight. **** happens.
No idea who Murph goes with on Saturday. The idea of Miz makes me nauseous, but could be sink or swim time.

I'm pretty much numb to the Brewers getting bounced early. It doesn't bother me as much as it should. And I know it's 2-2
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Team does a good job of not wanting you to trust them. Hopefully being back home will do us good but that crowd isn't going to help imo.

Luckily a lot of other stuff kind of sucks to take the edge off of this.

My niece is turning five and we’re having a party for her. Can’t wait, adorable little girl. There was a chance the game would be in the middle of the afternoon instead of late and past her bedtime. She’s gonna get spoiled so hard.

Aw same! My niece is turning 5 also, and I'm heading up to visit for her party on Saturday. Super excited. Have fun!

No, it’s right there.
Unlike other Brewer teams this one led the league in DIFF by a wide margin. This is a legit power team. To have three shots to advance and blow all three would be a collapse.

Good thing they decided to stand pat at the deadline with the best record in baseball. Gotta make sure you keep enough talent to make the playoffs every year and get bounced right away.
