This is an actual photo of the Brewer's bullpenHere's a recap of what I wrote my buddy Voss the other day:
"?It took me a full day to write this, but a begrudging congratulations to you and the Cubs. It looks like the $500 trillion you guys spent in the off-season has allowed to withstand a complete collapse in the last 10 games. Unlike the Brew Crew, which had the Klement's Chorizo sausage out on the mound in the 8th inning to protect their 7-run lead over the Padres. WTF, man? Is all the Knackwurst and Miller High Life going to their heads?
By the way, didn't I tell you way back in May that Cordero was a chump? Listen to the Gang man. WE NEED A BULLPEN. I personally asked the owner of the Brewers to try to sign Dennis Eckersley to a 1-year, $19 million contract. Hell, the one-armed candle salesman that sports a captain's hat next door can do a better job at holding leads. I am going to the Milwaukee tryouts next year. At least I can go out to the mound with a look on my face that says "There's no F*cking way we're losing this game," unlike Turnbow, who constantly looks like he just pissed himself. Now we'll have to rely on all of the comforting sausage, cheese and beer sales in the offseason to make enough money to bring Lee Smith out of retirement. Great. Anyway, I can't wait to cheer on the Cubs, because after all, I am a midwestern guy, and my dad would have said "I don't give a damn if you do live in Milwaukee, I'm rooting for the Cubs." Well screw you, dad. And you're right somehow. I'll resurrect my dad and the ghost of the '84 Cubs and root them to the NLCS (remember, if the Cubs improbably finish off the D-backs, the Padres won't have a chance, unless Steve Garvey suits up again.... I'm just sayin')."
Whoops, looks like the Padres just lost. Enjoy Denver. No, really. Enjoy it. I'll be giggling like a 3-year old when Cleveland spanks New York and then escapes Boston with the ALCS. Then they'll destroy whatever team is coming from the national league. Don't say I didn't warn you.
