BUCKS WIN BUCKS WIN BUUUUUUCKS WIIIIIN

But there were 2 losses the Brewers had to endure.

The Dodgers are a better team - NOT saying the  Brewers can't win.  No no but  the Brewers are bullpenning tells you that they are doing what they can to over come a starting pitcher weakness with their strength the bullpen.  Yesterday?   Kershaw was just damn good.

The problem with the Brewers (besides starting pitching) is that they have lineup issues against GOOD left handed pitching which sadly is a strength of the Dodgers.  Can the Brewers make it to the world series?  FOR SURE!  It's not like they have no experience in a NEED A WIN situations.  The Brewers are good enough to get to the World series.  But I do not believe they are the BEST team.   

Remember - the Dodgers have to WIN the World Series to have a successful season. Brewers already have had a successful season and next year should be better with an over abundance of starting pitching.  The Crew have made Wisconsinites focus on them and not a very very mediocre Packer season (the last season with McCarthy I suspect).

The one thing I'm glad I don't have to do is sign Manny Machado to a free agent deal in strat-o-matic.  That would SUCK.  Mike Trout is so much better anyway.  I'm lucking I was the best team to NOT make the playoffs this year LOL

OH yea - Bucks won by one in a thriller last night.

Poll numbers now have blue with an 83% chance of winning the House and if you listen to Trump he will throw Republicans under the bus.  He commented that if the House turns blue it's not HIS fault and the Democrats have many things he wants to work with. THUS - making him a winner.

I swear if the Senate turned blue Trump would become a Democrat. 

Don't look now but the U.S. will have a LOT more blue Governors in a few weeks with Tony Milk Toast Evers having a 62% chance of winning and leads by 2.3 points in combined polls.   The issue with Walker is that FOX-GOP gerrymandering does not work in this race.  Can't cheat to win this one. The whole population gets to choose.  Not just the voters the GOP WANT! 

I just wish Evers had a LITTLE more fire in his belly.

The interesting thing is what is happening to young voters.  It seems that in states that have had special elections youth are turning out in big numbers.  A few states that have typically have had 10-15% 18-29 year old's turn out have seen those numbers swell to the 30% range. 

According to the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement at Tufts University, youth turnout looks to be about what it is in a Presidential election.

If you have not seen an episode of Loudermilk (I'm sure you have not) - it's pretty good.  On the Audience Network and on demand (if you have DIRECT TV).  Season 2 is nearing and you can get caught up.  Check out the trailer.



Have a great non-baseball Thursday
