I was looking through old newspapers to find some of my clips on specific topics. The papers spanned part of the Brett Favre retirement saga.
It’s nearly a calendar year since the Packers last lost a game, and it’s nearly four years since Favre played his last regular season game with Green Bay.

Man Up: The CEO of Light Beer Takes Issue With... →
fullcredit:
Jon Bois of SB Nation wrote a series of letters from the CEO of the fictional “Light Beer” company described in Miller Lite’s utterly awful and offensive “Man Up” ads. Here’s an excerpt:
Once again, though… I don’t mean to be a Nitpicking Norman, but I couldn’t help but notice that once again, your commercial is… well, if I didn’t know better, I’d say that you were leveraging...

Milwaukee Brewers: Just a baseball rant →
stepharoo22:
Maybe this is new to me since my Brewers have never been this good in my lifetime. But why is everyone hating on them, or more specifically, why does everyone hate that they’re having a good time? I was a little upset watching Baseball Tonight because they asked “Are the Brewers…
Yes, it does have something to do with the Brewers not being good until the current core...

WSJ - Bob Uecker Is Still on the Active Roster →
It’s the start of a new season, and I’ll save you all the platitudes about a fresh start and new beginnings and crocuses pushing up through slushy soil. I am once again going to give this thing a go.
A few years ago, I was visiting some friends in Chicago. My friend works for a big Internet company and I told him I sporadically kept a blog about the Brewers.
“Why did you stop posting?” he asked...
Zack Braddock was stung by a scorpion? Of course, I have a short course of action I would suggest.

The Brewers traded Jim Edmonds to the Reds for Chris Dickerson, which is overall a good trade, although everyone is sad to see him go.

I was wrong. I did not believe the many prognosticators who said the NL Central would come down to St. Louis and Cincinnati. I wasn’t buying the Reds, and of course, I had high hopes that it would be the Brewers challenging the Cardinals.
Brandon Phillips gave the Reds some personality by calling out the Cards, which lead to a benches-clearing brawl. This takes the edge off my distaste for...
