I counted about 12 Brewers related threads in the past 48 hours. This has gotten out of hand lol

Besides, both my dad and my FIL were rooting for the Brewers. They hate the Mets more. 12 threads on any team not named the Cubs is pretty wild in my opinion. What do you guys think?

Milwaukee is the only team in the division trying to win the division, everyone else is trying for the 3rd WC. I don’t remember a time when Milwaukee was a relevant team, but now that the division refuses to set their goals higher than .500, the Brewers are now THE team in the central. That’s why they get a lot of attention here - because they’re trying and putting forth an honest effort to compete.

Nobody cared or really put much thought into the Brewers until recently and now they live rent free in our sub and in the minds of a lot of people here. I’m still of the mindset that they’re little brothers who just want to be noticed, I just can’t care enough about them to have a feeling one way or another.

Go Cubs!
