    4.5 games behind the Brewers...what's been the problem early season? Bats?

    Down goes Wacha! The city of real beer wins in 12 and whips up on the city with the watered down piss brew.

    Brewers up by 5.5 games in the NL Central!

    Brewers look like they are for real.

    I think I asked in another topic, but what's the progress on bringing back Pabst Blue Ribbon to Milwaukee as a community owned Brewery...sort of like how Green Bay owns the Packers?

    Highly unlikely that the "community" would be able to come up with money to buy PBR from its present LA owners and move it back to Milwaukee.

    Here is the group's website:

    http://bringpbrhome.com

    Right now, two hedge fund investors bought the Milwaukee Bucks for 550m. In order to stay in MKE, a new arena will need to be built at a cost estimated at 400m. The old and new owners have pledged 200m for this project but there seems to be serious issues where the remaining money will come from and new taxes are, right now, out of the question as residents of the five counties near Miller Park are still paying an increased sales tax to fund that stadium. If the city is having trouble finding 200m to keep the Bucks, doubt if they can find a billion to bring back PBR. I think the thing is a social media lark.
