Reply to "Bucks vs Brewers"

This is a great thread and made me think of some memorable fan moments in my 40 or so years on the planet.  My favorites (no order): 

Badgers Final Four runs - especially 2000.  Giant killers as an 8 seed.  Just falling short in 2015 to Duke.  So close. I remember being disappointed for days after that game as I thought they had it. 

Marquette Final Four run with Dwayne Wade.  Such a fun team to watch.  Hard to believe it’s been almost 15 years now. 

Bucks 2001 playoffs.  Run and gun.  They had the Sixers in their sights and I honestly think they may have been able to beat the Lakers in the Finals as they beat them twice during the regular season.  I’m still bitter about that outcome.  May David Stern be forced to eat glass and have chronic diarrhea in the afterlife. 

UWM b-ball tourney runs under Bruce Pearl.  Especially 2005 when they made it to the Sweet Sixteen to face then #1 seed Illinois.   Good times. 

Badgers football - 1993 Rose Bowl victory.  Much like the Packers 1996 season it was a special season and they sealed the deal.  I remember sitting in my apartment after they won in disbelief as I wasn’t sure it would or could happen.   Who knew they would parlay that game into the next 25 years fielding a consistent top 20 program. But they needed a starting point and that first Rose Bowl victory set the tone. 

And finally, last years Brewers playoff run and this years Bucks playoff run have been excellent.   It was disappointing to see the Brewers fall to the Dodgers but they gave them everything they had and almost pulled it off.  Hope they can get over the hump at some point just like the Bucks.
