Thanks to my good friend Dave Gollnick in Wisconsin & huge Brewers fan I had the Gorman Thomas fan favorite autograph card but he earlier this year sent me some Gorman Thomas Stormin Sauce & yes thats sauce is autographed by Stormin Gorman himself. I wanted 2 sauce bottles 1 signed not to be opened & 1 to try Dave said he'll try to send me another one if the Brewers should win the World Series. Well....the Brewers are returning to Fall Classic for the first time since 1982 When Gorman was the leading home run leader for that team but back then they were an American League team. How I wish they would return to American League & Houston back to the National League. I understand fully that Milwaukee was in the National League when the Braves played there but c'mon I can remember as a kid looking at the American League East standings in the 1980s seeing Milwaukee there as well watching guys like Molitor,Yount,Cecil Cooper,Ben Oglivie,Jim Gantner,Rollie Fingers,Pete Vuckovich,Moose Haas come for a series usually around in early June around my birthday to Detroit. While Ohtani is still wondering why he can't get a ring this year for the Dodgers.
What no ring for me why not!!!!
Sorry Mr Owl & GRCL but its time for a new National League team to be representing the National League in the World Series even though I still want them in the American League.
So as I type this the American League Championship Series is heading to Game 4 with Cleveland up 2-1. If the Guardians win the series I see the Brewers taking it in 5 games if the Rays should move on to make their 3rd appearance in the Fall Classic well.....then again I will say Milwaukee sweeps them. Regardless someone will break their curse of not winning a World Series title it all depends on who is the winner. So thanks again Dave for the sauce hoping you can send me some more to try & Dave is trying to complete his Topps run of Brewers Team Sets here's what he needs if ya can help him out he'd appreciate it just make a trade to me & I'll send it along to him. He also collects these guys in his PC Jackson Churio, Jonathan Lucroy, Paul Molitor, Christian Yelich, Robin Yount, and Ken Griffey Jr.

I hope someone can help him out until then I'm reminded of former Brewers Manager Dave Bristol once saying "There'll be 2 busses leaving the hotel for the park tomorrow. The 2:00pm bus will be for those of you who need a little extra work. The empty bus will leave at 5:00pm."
