2 things

Great Thing #1: The Brewers just signed Trevor Hoffman, the all-times Saves leader, to be our Closer. Whew. Collective sigh of relief heard throughout baseball world in Wisconsin. The LA Dodgers were also in the hunt for Hoffman, and it appeared they had a clear advantage as Hoffman is a California guy. However, our efforts to sign him apparently paid off. {Who really could resist the allure of coming to the true Dairyland?} Doug Melvin, our GM, just keeps working his magic. He has this incredible "baseball business" mentality that keeps paying off for the Brewers.

Great Thing #2: The movie "7 Pounds". Amazing. One of those movies that you keep replaying in your head for hours and days after you leave the theater. One of those movies that makes you want to become a better person, and just do the right thing. http://www.sevenpounds.com/
