Seriously, Chicago, while I'm personally cheering for the Bulls to beat Boston in the NBA Playoffs I'll never embrace the lovable losers that are the Chicago Cubs.
Frankly, no one in Milwaukee should. Rivals are rivals and we're ready for you next weekend even if your chicagotribune.com calls our starting rotation "miserable."
Anyway, Milwaukeeans, we want your help in taking back Miller Park from Chicago Cubs fans.
Brewers fans held strong during the Opening Day series, and to encourage more hometown support OnMilwaukee.com will print a special edition "Brewers Pride" T-shirt for the May 8-10 series against the Chicago Cubs.
We'll take care of the eye-catching design, but we want you to submit your best anti-Cubs slogan.
The OnMilwaukee.com staff will choose the best slogan and have them for sale online this Friday, May 1!
Submit your slogan by Wednesday, April 29 at Noon to contests@staff.onmilwaukee.com.
All slogans become property of OnMilwaukee.com. Winner will receive a free T-shirt printed with their slogan and recognition in a story on OnMilwaukee.com.
Go Brewers.
