I'd say about 65% of us have & still are (for close to 2 decades now), it's just never taken seriously by the national media or at least it's ignored by them. Even the local/state media spends too much time making excuses, & trying to pass off and defend Mark A's "summer of fun".

@JKDodgers Brewers fans are mad at the wrong people. We should be upset with Attanasio for not spending more.

@JKDodgers “It’s only unfair if you don’t get what you want I guess.” Like in 2023 when dodgers fans were saying the playoff format was unfair? 😂

@JKDodgers I’m just happy we don’t need half the leagues top aces and sluggers to win. You guys not winning is far worse than us losing. You shouldn’t lose a single game with that lineup.

@GreenBrewCrew @JKDodgers .... have to suffer like all us small-market fans do. The same with Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Braves, Cubs eventually, & 5 or 6 other fanbases. The only chance the small markets have is to overspend like the KC Royals did, then fade. Let the Dodgers live, they live in hell LA!!

Not a single brewer fan complained about salary caps during the regular season when they went 6-0. In fact, it was regularly used as a dig. Now? LMAO. It’s only unfair if you don’t get what you want I guess.

Let's be fair though. It's not the Dodgers or any of the 8-10 major market, high-spending teams who inevitably will eventually win the World Series fault. It also not their fan's fault either. It squarely lies the fault of MLB, MLBPA, & media. Dodgers fan can count stars they ...

@Jumbolaire60 @JKDodgers .... I'd submit we technically had both an somewhat awful offense & average pitching in 2018. However, to ignore the disparity in spending is asinine. However, I also beg Mark A to spend just a little more too - but truth is it deafening either way. Fault of MLB, MLBPA, & media.

@Jumbolaire60 @JKDodgers I just want to make it clear. I might be a little spoiled, but that's only because I'd like to see the Brewers win a god-damn World Series. I'm tired of this "bites at a rotting apple" bullshit that perpetually winds us up with an awful offense or an awful pitching (2008, 2011)..

@JKDodgers Wrong. I have always argued for a salary cap. More specifically, a ban on teams signing unreasonably long deals that will be paid long after the player is done playing. All other major sports teams have successful salary caps. And I also support a salary floor too.

They stopped the choking last year, so actually we've been losing our minds for at least two years - but trust me every small market and some mid market fans has been losing their mind for decades - it's just nobody noticed until it became front & center!!!

@JKDodgers Right. They are actually insulting the Brewers team, organization and franchise, by acting like the fact that they had the best record in @mlb isn't/wasn't true. How demeaning to every Brewer player, employee and fan.

@JKDodgers @mjohnson184 Wrong, it was over before the series even started. That's because of the disparity of money spent by 8-10 teams, & the occasional team that spends to win the WS & then immediately goes down tank (like KC Royals). That's NOT your Dodgers fault, that's MLB, MLBPA, & media's fault.

@mjohnson184 We were there in 22 and 23. Just wet the bed and lost to teams playing better. This series also isn’t over.

@JKDodgers I don't know who you were paying attention too, but plenty of us did. I was happy to see us go 6-0, as I find it maddening the gap between. However, I knew we were extremely lucky to escape unscathed, and knew we were severely outmatched come playoffs. That & our offense is AWFUL

Also, the 90%+ voting record with the Dems/Liberals, his obvious love of ObamaCare, his reluctance to face the facts on why he was used in the first place, & the fact that he's one step from being Biden (but younger) just begs the statement - I'm fine with moderates, just not him
Out of the Closet Conservative@No_Closets_Here

@LangmanVince No. Fetterman just posted today that he wants to keep ACA subsidies in place. He votes with the Dems 96% of the time. He just told Bill O’Reilly & a NewsNation audience that he has no plans to switch parties to Republican or even Independent. Leave him where he is comfortable.

I sadly agree. I'd be okay with welcoming him to the Republican Party or to at least be Conservative if he truly wanted to be here or there. I mean we've dealt with moderates like McCain, Collins, the Alaska senator before Murkowski. However, he doesn't want to be either.

@Wiscodsin The Brewers could've had ALL 7 games at Miller Park (I'll never call it Am Fam), & it wouldn't change the outcome. This Brewers offense is & has been awful, sans 10-14 games in June & the 2 double digit win streaks in August. I'm a Brewers fan, but we need to STOP biting apples.

Also, a 2-3-2 format hardly favors the better seeded team. The more I get into the MLB the dumber I think it is set up.

@ByJackStern If you stay quiet/silent at the trade deadline the way the Crew did the last two seasons, you better be exceptionally good - which they DEFINITELY have NOT. Instead they trade for pre-injured talent, glorified AAAA PRs, & downgrades at backup C. They could have shopped at Costco.

Seems folks are wondering why Aaron Ashby keeps opening games. Between the Cubs and Dodgers, the Brewers have faced lineups with very good left-handed hitters at the top. Ashby is better than Priester, Quintana, and Misiorowski and creates left-on-left matchups.
