Pointless fact alert: Logan Webb has refused to stay with the team at the Pfister because he is afraid of ghosts. I was listening to MLB radio this AM on my way to work and they played an excerpt from Logan Webb's podcast in which he explains that when the team landed in MKE he got his own rental car and hotel. The full podcast will be played on MLB radio at 1 PM (probably eastern time) today if you are interested. Hopefully he sees ghosts all evening today.

I have seen decorative chains used for this purpose. Same idea as the strings. See Rain Chains on amazon.

I felt like I was close to getting that kind of treatment a few years ago when I had a shoulder impingement/rotator cuff issue. I felt like the appointment changed when I said I don't want to mask the pain, I want to fix the problem.

DIY Solar Forum is a very active forum where you can get all the information overload you may need. While geared toward DIY, there are sections that talk about installers. It is a great resource for research to understand how deep you might want to go but you may find a lot of information that is overwhelming. It is also very international so you will get advice from across the globe. I seriously considered starting my own solar business many years ago. Sometimes I wish I had because it has grown pretty much as I expected. Sometimes I am very happy I did not for all the same reasons. I do solar DIY on my RV, that is enough for me.

Every one of these teams needed to play that well or better over that stretch to realistically achieve there next goal with the possible exception of CHC. CHC would have had to perform much better to catch MIL.

When he trades away the "wrong" players in the next few weeks.

That is an awesome feature (the pdf). Better than a link with all the adds etc.

Perhaps Chucky took the first round loss MoJo from Madison to Louisville for us to never see again in Badger land.

This is exactly the struggle. I see it as an opportunity to do something I would not otherwise pay for myself. We might have to target the 2026 season when the schedule comes out so that we can pick one of those top 5 or so stadium/city experiences with the biggest bang for the $500 buck.

For those not paying attention, the Badger women at 31-1-2 have been #1 all year and should have a good run in March.

Nice input, this has become an exercise in weighing the options. I like the idea of a non-brewers game, I catch them in Milwaukee and the twin cities often enough. My original thought was a home Brewer game but depending on the rules, I might not get the whole $500 value in ticket prices anyway (first few rows of the upper level). Milwaukee is a road trip for us so taking the edge off the overall cost of that trip is still enticing. I wish they were a bit more clear on how it works. I wonder if the leftover value of the tickets gets you parking and/or refreshments. I might look at and try to predict a good September matchup in a city we want to visit.

Given the opportunity for two tickets in the lower rows of the upper level of any baseball venue, where would you go to see a Brewers game? My company has a rewards program and I have saved enough points to receive this $500 value reward called the Level Two Experience. There are many options for how to use this reward but I am currently focused on an away Brewers game. The information below is all that I can find on this reward and it has some limitations and rules, most notably you need to request tickets 90 days in advance. This is the web site for the vendor that provides this. It is a $500 value and I don't know if it includes anything beyond tickets at this point. So, with this information, where would you most like to see a Brewers game?

Realizing there is probably something in between, I would rather have been a Brewers fan the last 25 years than a Marlins fan with 1 World Series title.

The one thing among all the changes that we are seeing with this team that I love is the end of half/game possessions. In the past, starting with the Bo teams, it was always that one guy (such as Chucky last year) that held the ball at the top until it was go time late in the clock. Seemingly 90% (not a real statistic) of the time that one guy dribbled around and took the last shot rarely passing. Good opposing coaches would prepare for this and defend it. The predictability was annoying. I have not seen much of this the entire year. The last couple of games it has been Blackwell in these situations but his willingness to pass out off the dribble late has been refreshing.
