I'M NOT READY FOR FOOTBALL. But the Packers won. Sure, it's a practice race, but they haven't won the first of those for a while. In the National League Central, the Cubs gave up a touchdown, two field goals and a safety, while the Brewers reprised Harvey's Wallbangers to open a 1.5 game lead. Poor Ron Santo on the Cubs broadcast network ... he went from savouring a Cub lead and another crummy opening by Milwaukee to despairing over yet another bullpen meltdown. What really amuses is the beer commercials, which in best trade-union tradition recommend that Cub fans drink something made locally. Old Style. G. Heileman Brewing, Milwaukee, which is the closing line for the commercial. Prosit!
