Motorcycles, Cocaine, and the World Series

Dig deep enough in the memory vault of any Brewers fan born in the 1970’s, and you will find a treasured emotion that has eluded the Milwaukee faithful for years–optimism. Remember when the Brewers rocked? Remember when post-season play wasn’t something you read about in books? Remember how much you loved that first Brewers jersey Mom and Dad gave you that was two sizes too big? Remember how pissed you were when Milwaukee upper management crushed those cherished, all too familiar images connecting you to your youth and introduced the horrendous new Brewers emblem that was the sports logo equivalent of typewriter font?

It would be great to have that old glove logo back, wouldn’t it? Not only does it recall the glory days of Yount, Thomas, and Coop, it also serves as one of the most identifiable and unique major league baseball logos out there. I would love to see its return, and I am confident there are thousands of others who feel the same.

Our buddy Big Andy G provided the following link to a petition for the return of the coolest logo in baseball. It’s quick and it’s easy to do–takes less than 30 seconds. If you’re interested, please check it out!
