Hey guys. I've been kind of a lurker on this site for the last two seasons. I enjoy many of the conversations you guys have here - you have some knowledgable and fun posters. I'm a die hard brewers fan - but I'm also a baseball fan. The cubs have such a passionate fanbase (many who are on this site) that I can't help but admire them. I'm a big dork - and I often read around on other teams fan sites to see what their fans feel and just gain more baseball knowledge from around the league. I have come to enjoy some of the things written on this site. I enjoyed last season and thought that with you guys winning the division by 2 games - it might start up a little rivalry. I know the Brewers fans will probably think of it as bigger of a rivalry than Cubs fans ever will, but it still is fun to have a contender again in Milwaukee. However, I can across this article - and was slightly baffled. I know there is sometime bad sports blood between Wisconsin and Illinois (Packers/Bears; Badger/Illini, Cubs/Brewers) but I never thought Cubs fans had much hatred towrads Milwaukee. http://baseballevolution.com/keith/hatebrewers.html I just wanted to read the Cubs fan base as a whole on this topic. Do you all really hate Milwaukee this much? I know he may be being a little over the top in this article - but I thought I'd post it anyways as my first post. Hopefully I'll be able to post more aften here and have some good discussion with ya'll this season. Should be a good one. Good luck all.
