Where does Game 7 rank?
« on: October 20, 2018, 11:01:11 AM »
For all of you Brewers/MU/Packers fans, where does tonight rank in terms of biggest/nerve racking games for you?

In no order my top 3 are tonight, Favre Super Bowl, and MU vs. KU in the FF.

Hell, last night was probably in my top 5.

Not even in my top ten.  I'm sure I have at least ten Packer / Warrior games that were more nerve wracking.

I was going to post a different take.

What would you rather have?

1) Brewers win NL Penant

Or

2) Packers win NFC title


A no-brained for me. Baseball has always been my 1st love.

I’ve always thought even though the state is a bigger football state through good and bad, a World Series would set off a party like none other.

I'd agree. Winning the super bowl is cool and all. But nothing is better then a world series win after 7 months of baseball.

In the last 30 years this has to be in the top 3-4 with the two Superbowl wins.  I remember being more frustrated in the SB against Denver.  I also remember the Final 4 as being 'very' uphill.  One thing that rivals it for me was the Davidson game that I personally witnessed.  For reasons I've talked about before, that experience was surreal for me.

Obviously I really want the Crew to win.  But I've been able to enjoy watching this team grow into a serious NL contender.  So often in Wisconsin, baseball season ended when the Packers started the pre-season.  Not for the next several years it would seem.  And bludgeoning the 'bought and paid for' Cubs on a going forward basis would give me great joy.

Not sure where I’d rank it, but it’s way up there. Postseason baseball is the top sporting event for me, even when the Brewers aren’t playing (so basically every year). In 08 and 11 I never felt like the Brewers didn’t have a real, true shot to win a ring. This has felt like if it’s ever going to happen in my lifetime, this is the year.

Not even close. Baseball has become a relaxing sport for me. I love the game but I watch with friends and it is a chance to come together in a park like setting.

Most nerve-racking game ever was the 1977 NCAA Championship game. We had been so close for so long, climbing the mountain. As far back as 1969, we were one free throw away from the Final Four. The year before, we had run into the buzzsaw that was the Indiana Hoosiers (the last undefeated team in NCAA history). We had lost Jim Chones one year, Maurice Lucas another and been robbed by a referee in a third.

During the game itself, we had broke out into an early, fairly notable lead. But in the second half, North Carolina came back and even took the lead for a moment. The game went back and forth until Al started playing mind games with Dean Smith and we pulled it out.

30.7 Milwaukee rating on FS1. 15.9 LA rating on FS1. Highest ever in those markets.
