The Packers changing street names was an interesting twist on things back in the 90s after they ended their drought. A few of you folks who know the ins and outs of the stadium maybe can answer this better - are there any smaller streets leading to/touching the stadium area that we could change to "Pat Murphys Way" or "Uecker Avenue" or "Yount Alley" or whatever?

There is already a Yount Dr and a Selig Dr. They could rename Frederick Miller Way or there's a snippet of 44th St that runs into Selig Dr Northeast of the stadium

Totally up to all of you. I had no intentions of moving it any time soon, so it'll be here for awhile and I'll ask first should I think about moving it.

I'd say this is the ultimate WOAH SOLVDD thread.  Because OH MY GOD THE BREWERS WON THE WORLD SERIES. 🥹  

October was an absolute dream sequence. Then November hit and our many late nights driving back to Madison caught up to me and I've been under the weather since Monday - so I'm just now taking in this very special in-game thread.  I love seeing so many OG Brewerfan-dot-netters make an appearance this past week! 

I know football is king in Wisconsin, and the Badgers' various sports are right in front of me because I live in Madison and work on campus.  But the Brewers have been my ride-or-die since 1982 - longer than I've known my partner, even longer than I've worked in libraries - and this accomplishment has been the best.  THE BEST. 

I'm happy for us all. Truly, WOAH SOLVDD.

Anyone else still watching playoff highlights every night before bed like I am?  I tend to watch you tube highlights every night. Tonight is no different, settling in to watch our series against SD

 

In my life the most important pro sports franchises to me....

1. The Brewers

2. The Titans (sorry Nashville native)

3. The Packers (so fun in 96/97) actual stock holder

4. The Predators

5. The Bucks

Just posting this to say the Brewers are my favorite team among all sports.

This thread should not be moved all off season and it may be a very long off season. If there was ever a year to not move, this is it. 

[Branyanisthegoat]

Have we ever got confirmation an extension came with Arnold's promotion to POBO? On a recent raido interview Rotino said something along the lines of "Mark has to pay him" which to me implies he hasnt yet been paid.

I dunno which CA team he rooted for growing up in California, but getting nervous with how coveted that Angels gig is.

Overall playoff batting lines for us:

Player A: .373/.448/.588/1.037

Player B: .354/.373/.479/.852

Player C:  .288/.306/.424/.730    

 

Who are they? Don't look it up first.

Player A is our MVP. You are correct that C is Chourio.

Player B is flippin' Cooper Pratt. He and Chourio had the same amount of hits in the post season. What a start to a career.

Big Chourio playoff at bat.

While not every player had an amazing stat line for us, not only did we win it all, but with basically everyone having at least one clutch moment and usually more we won't have to hear 'questions' about whether or not they can hit in the post season.

[da swedish german]

[da swedish german]

so what runner-up place in the division do the "experts"  predict for us next year?

Is anyone else just in a completely different emotional state as to life in general the last 10 days? Or is it just me. 

Like, I find it's hard for me to get angry or upset at anything now that the Milwaukee Brewers have finally won a World Series. lol

I don't know about life as a whole but my disposition toward sports fandom is very different right now.

I just watched a little of "Just One Before I Die," a docuseries (on Tubi) about the Buffalo Bills. The opening montage is a bunch of Bills fans talking about what they would trade for a Bills Super Bowl.

I'm now watching thinking, "These people are crazy," while 49 percent of me knows for sure that I was EXACTLY like them two weeks ago.

The weight remains lifted, and I haven't gotten used to the new center of gravity yet. It still feels like I'm on the moon.

I am still watching Brewers highlights every night.

That's weird - I thought I was the only one with those top two.  I grew up in WI, but somehow developed a fandom for the Oilers back in the run-n-shoot days and followed them to Tennessee.

I grew up in Nashville, as a kid I liked the Cowboys like most every kid in the south in the 70's. But one day my sister started cheering for the Cowboys, who happened to be playing the Packers that day. I think I was 5 years old, because I had my first grade picture taken in a Green Bay Packers sweatshirt. My parents bought me Packers stock, and they were my NFL team until the Titans arrived. I am a huge Nashville guy so the Packers are still #3 but the Titan's are number #2 by a wide margin. 

 

I know a few Brewers fans down here in Tennessee.

Saw another "influencer" selling those Frost Buddy water bottles who got it wrong. Called the Brewers the Milwaukee Bears and called the logo a bear claw.

Almost made me think it was intentional, but it just serves to turn people away, so I just think they are idiots.

[torts]

Good morning all you beautiful people.

The Milwaukee brewers are world series champions

[YelichPosse]

So, I check this thread and read through parts almost daily.

I was blessed enough to be able to go to games 3 and 4 and wow what a time it was.

My buddy who lives in FL and I chat almost every day since too - we had gone to 100's of games in our 20's and 30's up when we both lived in WI - and keep saying BRO WE WENT TO WS GAMES - AND WE WON!

I still don't know it fully has sunk in.... but this feeling, I like this feeling.

World Series merch.....

I have bought 4 hoodies, 1 jersey, 1 hat, and a sweater.

One of the cool parts of winning is how much it retroactively validates the process of previous years. This is almost a decade of dominating the Central. 5 division titles in 6 years, plus a WS championship. Plus another NLCS appearance. 

In terms of long-running, divisional-era dynasties, the Dodgers (2020s), Yankees (late-90s, early 2000s) and Braves (1990s) are probably going to top the list, but getting the ring puts this Brewers Golden Era ahead of the runs by Cleveland (1990s) and Minnesota (2000s) in the AL Central. The Giants won 3 WS in the 2010s, but only two division titles. 

We're in good company in terms of winning a lot of baseball, now capped by the ultimate championship validation.

I searched out the hoodie the team was wearing during the parade & thought it looked very cool. Ordered one of those, plus a t-shirt in the same design.

For anyone curious, the high school letterman-style jacket (I think Contreras was sporting one at the parade) is going for a grand.
