Throwup Sunday
I received this email from zgold007 before the Brewers’ series with the Kansas City Royals:
Following up on Gabe’s recent post on whether these are in fact the SOB, this weekend’s series against the woeful Royals will be an interesting test. The SOB would lose at least two-out-of-three (if not get swept), while the NOB (New Opportunistic Brewers) would at least win the series to get back to .500.Stay tuned…
I tuned in, and will now tune out. They are the Same Old Brewers. Losing two of three to a team like that is completely unacceptable. WHEN ARE WE GOING TO MOVE PAST THIS REBUILDING BULLSHIT???? This season is pretty much over, in terms of making the playoffs. There is no way a team like this is going to catch either our division leader or the Wild Card unless they go on some serious hot streaks. Why can Detroit turn it around? The Mets? The Reds? Why are we perpetually shit, even after putting some money into the roster? It’s just ridiculous. Come late July, it will be Packer season once again in Wisconsin, and the Brewers can slip meekly back into the back pages of the sports section.

I feel like it’s Groundhog Day (would that make me the Chris Elliot character?). Back to .500, playing an inferior opponent with a chance to win a series and get above .500. STAY TUNED…

And once again…a loss is required to temper the Brewers. They just can’t put an extended winning streak together.
