Bunch of topics today:
First, I got to watch my nephew play some Senior Ball, it's the league after Little League, at least in SE WI. He did a good job, got walked twice which is showing something, given he's about 5'10" and only 14 yrs old. Showed good plate patience and it payed off. He scored both times in a 9-6 win for his team, the Cardinals over the Dodgers. They have the same unis as the big leaguers so it was kinda cool. My brother (his dad) is their coach and does a decent job. It was probably the only time I'll root for the Cards, the bastards (noooo, I'm not bitter about them at all).
The Brewers had a miserable road trip, but I'll leave the details of that to Grog with his report tomorrow. The Crew host the Yankees who are in a serious slump. The Crew needs to right this ship in a hurry, but I'm not feeling all that great about this 3 game homestand.
I was talking with one of my wife's cousins, Tim, who grew up in WI, but has lived in MN for quite a few years as well and is a Vikes fan. I respect his opinion on football with the Vikes and Packers as he is a very well balanced fan. He knows as much if not more than the casual Packer fan about the Packers. He's a realist, that's what I like about him so much. We were tossing football back and forth discussing our respective teams. His comment was simply that Javon would be playing this season and not to worry about things now. Javon knows the offense and is undoubtedly keeping himself in shape by working out at the U of Miami. No gloating about the Packers offseason, just simple advice. So that's what I'm going to follow, no bashing of Javon any longer, if he's there great, if not, move on.
