Favre had maybe the greatest season in the history of quarterbacks in 2009. I was dead wrong. I didn't think he could be that good. On the other hand, if you believe that he is telling the truth-that he never communicated with his teammates and management- and don't believe his tight end or the media, then you need major counseling from people that charge more than $100 an hour. You also qualify as part of a cult.

It seems so screwed up for the Brewers. I don't know what to think with the signing of Corey Hart to a 3 year deal. I can't get  past the pitching. It's all about pitching for the Brewers and even this doesn't seem to mean much without pitching improvement.. Hart has been good this season, but I still think of the down and away pitch that kills him. It must be a loss of confidence. I used to give Melvin the benefit of the doubt, but I can't anymore. This could also make Hart more marketable in the off season, but I might just be dreaming that he can help solve the pitching dilemma.

Congratulations to the Brewers fans. You have held up your end of the donkey. Great attendance numbers. As a result of your incredible support, the Brewers have given you two disappointing seasons since the playoff year. And they do nothing at the trading deadline. Brewers fans deserve much, much better given the support at the park. The numbers say that -08 was a fluke and absolutely no indication of a club improvement that would make them a yearly contender. Doug Melvin deserves another year, but I'll admit my defense is weak sauce to those who want a change now.

I was mocked on Extra Innings Sunday afternoon when I said the Brewers will sweep the Reds because they can't lose with Uecker behind the mike. Actually, I have been on the Uecker/Major League/Harry Doyle connection since Saturday. It's one of those things that makes no sense. Don't try and figure it  out. Just enjoy the ride. Two more over the Reds and Uecker must travel or do the game from a studio in Milwaukee. But he must do every game to keep the 'whatever this is' going.

Sorry, I have not held up my end of the donkey since my diet weigh-in. The season is over for the Brewers. I don't know what they are doing. They aren't playing for the future. They just seem to be acting like they are in the race, but they can't believe that. I would have fired Macha after leaving Bush in for so long. Bush had six consecutive quality starts. No way I'm going to allow him to give up so many runs. I don't care about the bullpen. It's the same thing with Wolf. I would not allow him to have the opportunity to give up so many runs even if he says it's ok. I'll ruin the bullpen before ever doing what he allowed to be done to Bush and Wolf. It's wrong to do the same thing to Parra, but he's got no future with me so it's not as big a deal.

It's off the charts. Wesley Matthews couldn't get drafted last season. This season he's got a contract offer from Portland for 34 million over 5 years. He's going to get the money either from Portland or matched by Utah. It's what happens when Utah thinks you are good enough to guard Kobe Bryant in the playoffs.
