That is the reason I dont like the Yankees, but to say that of all clubs who have money is just envy.
Brewers are still spending 81 million this year, more than Cleveland, Cincinnatti, and 12 other ball clubs.
Cubs were 7th in spending.

well the cubs payroll is 118,536,038 million
thats alot more than the 81 million the brewers have in fact
the cubs have 27,536,000 million more than the brewers(thats enough to have a whole new team!!!! the marlins payroll is under 22 million) and i would be willing to bet the cubs salary that the brew crew will win the divison or have a better record then the cubs and look at that they just swept the giants and beat the cubs in there first series. and yes the if the brewers had more money (which they are getting because they keep selling out) they would get some better players but unlike the cubs they would get more stuff for the fans (the cubs dont even have urinals in there bathrooms) have u been to miller park??? they got soooo much for kids and most of its free. (not to mention better BEER and FOOD
)
now after that u say they were gonna sell the team and move years ago!! well i have been living in wisconsin my whole life and i can tell you that Milwaukee will ALWAYS have baseball. and yes i know they
used to be bad but whens the last time the cubs have been to the series???? over 100 years now.. My point is milwaukee has a home grown team were most of the players have been together since AA ball. they dont go and get the best person for every position like the yanks, soxs, and cubs. they play the game as a team to win while on those other teams the players try to make themselfs look good so they can get more money.. they have no teamwork.
