If not the Brewers...

You know I never try to root in division with the Crew, but my childhood hero was Roberto Clemente. I've always loved the Bucs. I know, I'm a loser.

Rooting for Clemente does not make you a loser.

 

I've mentioned elsewhere in the forum that I'd made a short list of teams I might have switched to, had the Miller Park funding fallen through. They were mostly smallish-market teams: Pirates, Twins, Mariners, Indians, Royals. My family seems to have a history of rooting for the underdog, and I have followed suit.

 

Since the Brewers continue to exist (yay), I don't actively root for these teams except in an entirely neutral setting. For example, when we were in Pittsburgh in 2002, we caught a game vs. Barry Bonds and the Giants, and it was all too easy to get in on the Barry taunting from the Buc faithful. That was a fun game in a great park.

Remember: the Brewers never panic like you do.

I cheer for the up and coming team each season. The team that comes out of nowhere to seriously compete, like the White Sox in 2005 and Tigers in 2006.

If not the brewers, I don't care, I just want to see good baseball. If there is a solid player that is in the twilight of his career without ever getting to the WS, that would make a good story.

The primary reason I like the Indians are the fans that visited Miller Park last year. I had a total blast with them. Good natured, talkative. Very classy fans.

I have to agree with this. I've always pulled for the Indians for some reason (maybe its the Major League thing) but this last year I went to the ALCS Game 4 in Cleveland vs the Red Sox...amazing experience and the fans were really cool and nice, I told a lot of people I'm from Milwaukee and they all we're appreciative of the use of the stadium(like I had anything to do with it http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif ). But yeah, overall great time and great impression from their fans.

I love the Cubs. Oh, wait a minute, it's not the 1st anymore. Nevermind.

 

 

I have a soft spot for the Indians and Braves and whoever is playing the Cubs.
