World Series thoughts from a lifelong Brewers fan.
Where do I even start with this? You spend your entire life rooting for the underdog, for the team that is fun to watch, but never has a chance. The team that is always counted out as soon as the calendar turns to April. You know, the team that even this year was picked to finish third in the division. That team is now your World Series Champion?
This isn’t real life.
As a life long fan, this changes EVERYTHING about the fandom that I know.
No more “win one for Ueck!” We’ve won it for Ueck. Now, we can just honor Bob Uecker for his unwavering loyalty and devotion to the franchise, and his Wisconsin spirit. Rest easy Ueck.
No more looking back constantly at the team that ALMOST won it all. This team HAS won it all. Now, we finally get to look forward, not back.
No more razzing from Cubs fans about our trophy case being empty. It now has hardware, and from where I’m standing, looks like they might be able to add more.
No more complaining about the “big” baseball teams. They have Hall of Famers, we have gamers. Guess what, the gamers won.
No more crying about the ownership, and how they don’t spend money. Mark Attanasio hired the front office, that hired the coaches, and both brought in our players. Without Mark, we don’t have Matt Arnold and we don’t have Pat Murphy. Without them, we don’t have this team, and we don’t have a World Series.
Things have changed in a way that I never could have imagined. WE are the team to beat. And things being that way, we’re going to have a ton of new Brewers fans. Let’s teach them how we do it here.
-Teach them to ALWAYS be humble
-Teach them to show kindness to our opponents(even Cubs fans).
-Teach them to invite strangers over to the tailgate, and share your brats and beers with them(even Cubs fans).
-Teach them to always support this team, even if they down by 15 in the third inning, or having a down year
-Most importantly, teach them that being a Brewer fan isn’t like being a fan of any other team, it’s a family thing. Going to Am Fam is a family reunion with 40,000 aunts, uncles, and cousins you haven’t met yet.
Wisconsin, after 57 years, YOUR Milwaukee Brewers are WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!
