Ryan Braun

Once again, Ryan Braun amazes me with his character. Geoff Jenkins took out a full page ad in the paper, after he left, thanking the fans of Milwaukee for all their support during his tenure here.

CC Sabathia did the same in Cleveland.

Ryan Braun just took out a full page ad on Friday thanking the fans for all their support during this season, and acknowledging that the team wouldn't have made it to the playoffs without us.

This kid, at 24, realizes that without us, they wouldn't have a job. Without us, Attanasio couldn't go out and sign Sabathia.

Nice job, Ryan. You are truly a class act.

Playoff Summary

Game 1 - Gallardo - good
Defense - garbage
Offense - garbage

Game 2- Sabathia - tired
Defense - better
Offense - still garbage

Game 3 - Bush - surprisingly very good
Defense - spectacular
Offense - patient

Game 4 - Suppan - garbage
Defense - not really needed
Offense - garbage

Bottom line - We lasted longer than the Cubs!

Update: To make things even better, it turns out that the Cubs were the only team to get swept in the first round. Yeah, no curses in Chi town!
