Although I follow other teams, I'm right there with you on the embarrassment part. People laugh when you tell them you are a Brewers fan. It sucks. And unlike other sports, you invest a lot of time in watching them to have disappointment yearly. They don't even resemble a major league team the majority of the time. It just sucks. During the AS break I was out at the bar talking to a buddy of mine. He's a big sports fan, but doesn't know the first thing about the Brewers. Probably couldn't name one player besides Ryan Braun. I remember talking to him about being 5.5 up in the division and how much things had a different feel with guys like Shaw and Thames and how Nelson and Anderson had emerged as solid starters, and Knebel's streak, and how exciting it was to be a Brewer fan right now. All he did was look at me and said, "It's the Brewers. They'll screw it up." Doesn't know the first thing about the Brewers and was still 100% right. Was it Pete Vuckovich or Gorman Thomas?
