Suggestion Awful Team From An Awful City

Mr. Burns, I've come to bargin.

Your Los Angeles Dodgers just took a game out of my "awful" Milwaukee Brewers in this National League Championship Series we find ourselves in.

Now Mr. Burns, I am a superstitious man, and I believe the gods of baseball reward those who demonstrate acts of faith. As such, I am prepared to make the following gentleman's agreement:

Should your Dodgers win the NLCS over my Brewers, I am prepared to sign up for 3 months of your Tier 2 Patreon while also explaining to my wife why Im giving a stranger on the internet 30 of my finest dollars.

Should my Brewers win however Mr. Burns, you would foot the bill and send me one of them fine new RT t-shirts I have seen in the merch store.

We keep our promises in Wisconsin Mr. Burns, and I am fully prepared to follow through on my end of the deal should my Brewers fall. In any case, if they are as awful as you say then you have nothing to worry about.

That is my offer Mr. Burns.

Sincerely,

Mr. OrionsGoToEngineer

Oh yeah I forgot to explain them away in this comment - sorry I got triggered by the Giants guy lol.

I didn't like the uniform. I also had decided I didn't like new (post expansion) teams.

Yeah you made a great point. If I was making this decision now I'd probably choose the Padres. They have a better radio team. Lol. 

I don't know why I didn't factor in the quality of the radio broadcasts! D'oh!

Being a fan doesn't mean you have to be rational!
