“You see, the life I live is sickening / I spent a decade playing chicken with oblivion / Day to day, I'm neck and neck with giving in / I'm the same old wreck I've always been”
— David Berman
I get why you don't do this — I'm not criticizing — but I wish you would ask Doc after tonight why he thinks he's still capable of turning this team around. They're totally checked out. He keeps telling you about all the adjustments & film sessions & walk-throughs, but they just keep playing worse.

Reality: Brewers fans who turn 21 in 2026 have seen their team make the playoffs nine times. They had good non-playoff teams to follow in five more seasons. They were 6, 13, and 20 when their team went to the NLCS.

National writers: why don’t the Brewers care about winning?!?

And don’t forget we also get scolded for criticizing this author for being mean-spirited and unwilling to appreciate their perspective. “Their perspective” being that they’d rather make money selling a book shaped by lies than to tell the truth and beat an asshole’s lawsuit. Infuriating!

The Pohlads are trying to neutralize their biggest critic by making moves you recommended. If they sign Seranthony Dominguez tomorrow, we’ll know this is real. Maybe a column about how they should sign Harrison Bader and Brent Suter can be next?

Wesley Matthews and Doc Rivers should switch jobs.

That was an insane overturn! Am I missing something?

Check out the Rosters to Rings podcast he has been cohosting — tons of cool behind the scenes front office stories. Levine is a really impressive dude.
