BP - I get it... on the other hand, each MLB game doesn't mean as much as an NFL game.. so if you head to the parking lot in the 7th inning (like we do in MKE, since we tailgate), it is not a big deal.

In Milwaukee, it is all about the party and tailgate (although we do like good baseball)... these teams with the stadium in the middle of the city (like BOS, NYY) where you can't set up a grill, a tent, and have a great time - it just doesn't seem like as much fun.... it is so boring, if you can't make a group party of it.

I will not leave a close game early, big difference going to Twins and Brewers games, Milwaukee is much more fun if you are going to do the group tailgate experience and Minneapolis is much better if you are going to get your drinks from the bars. Either way though the game experience is often dull. I think with the NFL there is so much anticipation week to week and your team only gets that one game. To me that one game goes by waaaaay to fast and then I have to wait another week to watch sub par football.

I get it... the NFL is way more popular... but that is precisely the reason why I'd rather go to a Brewers game than a Packer game... I hate to miss all the games going on via NFL Season Ticket - since there are so few of them. And NFL games have so little action and so much sitting around (only 5.6% of the time is there action - 11 minutes divided by 195 minutes). But baseball, since each game means so much less, the party is just as fun....

I love going to Lambeau - especially for a Thursday night or Sunday night game since it is the only game being played at that time (I realize that the Vikings don't have many of those games because they are not a top team like the Pack :lol:), but for fun, I'll go to a Brewers game every time.......

The average NFL game is like 3 hours, 12 minutes - and of that, an NFL game has just under 11 minutes of actual game action that we watch.

Buffalo wings should be grilled and not fried. Pizza should all be thin crust, but pepperoni needs to be banned

I have rethought one of my original rules. Instead of politicians working for free they will work for the average paycheck of those they represent.

Want a raise? Then bring good paying jobs to your constituents.

Unrealistic. You wouldn't find enough qualified candidates. Do you really want Joe the Plumber's Apprentice in the Homeland Security Council?

Did the person always have cancer?

Most people don't always do heroin.

Why can't we try to help both people?

I have managed to not become a heroin addict but that does not mean I do not think they should be helped.

Letting someone die because they are not as strong as you are seems like a real dick move.

I will admit that the sight of two dudes making out freaks me out. Havent seen much of it, but aeen enough. On the other hand, too chicks making out is about as good as it gets. But, seriously, i prefer to live and let live.

There is a lot on the line with a single game of the NFL. People talk about NFL games played 20 years ago.

Nobody talks about CFL because it looks like a special Olympics event. Nothing is on the line and nobody talks about the games played 20 years ago.

This is the second post I have seen from you about the CFL. Maybe it's time to let it go?:shrug:
