Sports-wise, it was an eventful weekend that was full of highs and lows.
The big news is that the Brewers won today! It means the Brewers will be in the playoffs--the first time in 26 years! The Brew Crew beat the Cubs 3-1. CC Sabathia pitched a complete game. Ryan Braun had a 2-run homer. The Mets lost their game today (giving the Wild Card to the Milwaukee Brewers)
Both New Berlin high school football teams scored big wins Friday night. NB Eisenhower beat Cudahy 54-13. New Berlin West trounced Wauwatosa West 63-20. See JS report.
That was terrific. On the other hand:
Saturday’s UW football game was a real stinker. The Badgers blew a big lead. The Michigan Wolverines ended up beating the Badgers 27-25.
The Green Bay Packers were beaten by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers today. The final score: Packers 21. Buccaneers 30. Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who threw 3 interceptions, injured his right shoulder during the game. A possible separated shoulder. Ouch.
By the way, ironman Brett Favre, who now plays for the NY Jets, had 6 touchdown passes today. The Jets beat the Arizona Cardinals 56-35.
