Reply to "Bucks vs Brewers"

Also born in 1969, soon to be turning the big 5-0.  By far Pro Football and the Packers were my biggest passions, but both have faded recently.  The Packers' passion has faded mostly due to a decline in the quality of the team. The NFL passion overall has faded mostly because the game just feels so different from what it once did but I'll save my thoughts on that topic for another time.

I think the biggest issue for me following the Brewers and Bucks for many many years was the fact that they just didn't have the right guys at the top running things.   Both organizations have done 180 degree turnarounds.  At the moment, it appears from the top on down, both the Brewers and Bucks are run in a top shelf manner.  I've enjoyed both teams a lot more in the past 3-4 years. 

The cards are stacked against the Brewers and Bucks, but they really have begun to make the most of their resources with the current management structures in place.  

As for the Bucks specifically, I have been a partial and sometimes full season ticket holder the past 3 years.   I began watching them in 1977-78 and I believe this is the best Bucks team that I can ever remember.  There's been more than a few times this season that I thought to myself, "I may never see a Bucks team this good ever again".   This really is a special season and while I'll never feel as much passion for the Bucks as I did say the 2010-2011 Packers, I still have really enjoyed it.
