I know very little about sports ball. I know what a whole city sounds like when it finally gets the thing. I heard it through my window, and yes, I cried. Celebrate safe, Milwaukee. Go Crew.
Forty-four years is how long the Brewers waited, and it's exactly how old I am. If the Brewers are launching this year, why not me?
