Reply to "Bucks vs Brewers"

As one guy of whom I asked what he thought on a specific topic said "it depends on what book I am reading now".  Honest - that guy is real - and as close as I can remember, a real quote.  I laughed a little when he said that. 

But the Bucks are the "book" I am reading now.  Maybe because they are only one more series away from being in the NBA championships.  That has been a long time coming ..........

I use to work at Wayland Academy where the Bucks held their summer camps.  Occasionally I would see one of them.  Only a few times I got to say "hi" in passing.  And one time I got to spend some time with a Buck draft pick Forward Mike Grosso (spell?).  He came in early to rehab his knee.  The Bucks figured if he could do that he would be a draft steal.  But as far as I know he never played in a regular season game.  Each morning for a while we would talk for about 10-15 minutes.  He would tell me all about his life and experiences.  His college tales were very interesting - he was a character - in a good way.  The first time I saw him was I had to do a double take at this 6-9 guy getting out of this small car - seemed out of place to me.
