I grew up a die hard Brewers fan. In '92 when the Brewers couldn't afford to keep Paul Molitor I was only 16 and had lost my love of MLB after that. I rooted for Molitor when he won the World Series with the Jays but that was it. When I was ten years old I remember at County Stadium jumping on top of the Brewers Dug Out during the Game and stuck my head under and saw Paul Molitor. I asked him or his autograph and he took my card and said "I'll be right back". I climbed off the dugout and about a minute later Paul came out with my card signed and gave it to me. Really made my day! After the game Don Mattingly stayed 30 minutes after the game signing autographs and I was able to get his as well.

Sal Bando screwed up there. He said Molitor was nothing but a DH and didn't deserve 3 million a year. Big pick up for Toronto!

My Father who is amazing and a great ball player named me after Robin Yount. I've idolized him ever since. I was able to get an autograph from him that says to Robin from Robin Best wishes. I always wanted to ask him if he'd say hi to my Dad so I could return the favor a bit. Thanks for the memories.

The best play I recall Robin Yount ever making was when Pitcher Juan Nieves was closing in on the Brewers first ever No Hitter. In the 9th inning I recall a hitter getting a great knock on the ball and it was surely going to be a hit and Robin Yount running full speed dives sticks his arm out as far as he can and stabs that ball sealing the deal for the first Brewer NO HITTER!!! I won't speak about the pitcher that pitched that game as his story had a terrible ending.

The one thing I will always remember about this team was, even when they were losing a game, you always had the feeling that they would come back and win the game.

I became a Brewer Fan in '86 and Robin Yount, Jim Gantner and Paul Molitor were like family members in our household. I have 2 brothers and between us 3 boys those 3 guys were like Uncles to us but we only ever got to see them at the games. Loved the 80's Brewers teams all of them!

I'm a White Sox fan, but the Brewers from around this time are one of my favorite teams ever. Just a great team to watch. Great players who were also great characters. For all the sluggers, though, my favorite guy was Mike Caldwell. He was such a tough SOB on the mound and had the best pick-off move I've ever seen. I'm not the baseball fan I once was, and one of the things that most pissed me off, more than the strikes and steroids, was when they moved the Brewers to the National League. Bud Selig thought he was just too precious to be in the American League, when, by their style of play, the Brewers were purely an American League team. The NL can have the Astros back. The Brewers belong in the American League! I wonder how Brewers fans feel about this.

I was lucky enough to get tickets to both the ALCS and the World Series in the center field bleachers. I saved my ticket stubs. The ALCS was $5 and the World Series was $8. Great memories, especially Game 5 of the ALCS. All the games were electric, but that game had something extra.

I'll probably be banished as I'm a Twins fan from MPLS. Nevertheless, as an 11 year old during the 82 season I loved this Brewer team. That lineup was unreal and they scored 891 runs. Given the era, that was a crap load. Would have loved to have seen Cooper and Benji at this function.

I was 22 when the 1982 World Series took place, I'm a Cardinal fan, but enjoyed the Series, remember so many special moment's. Lonnie Smith stealing home and being denied, Willie McGees catch, I think one sight I'll never forget, Tenace being a Cardinal, leaning over the fence, talking to Rollie Fingers in the Milwaukee bullpen, teammates from the Oakland A's talking as friends, kind of put a human element to it. It went 7 games, could of went either way, almost a shame someone had to be on the losing side, because both teams were very good teams with class players.

I was always an American League fan, and the two World Series losses that still bug me to this day are 1971, Orioles losing to the Pirates, and 1982, the Brewers losing to the Cardinals. The rest, you win some, you lose some, but those two I really wanted to win.

Simmons has some Christopher Walken stoicism about him. I hope this celebration gels our current '22 club and we do great things. Trades happen, but you still gotta play the same way for Counsell and the fans.

@@DavidMcdonald-df8tb That's true and he allowed Molitor to leave after 1992 and then Paul went on to have a tremendous year with Toronto in 1993. GM Bando only wanted to pay 2 million and Toronto gave him 3.5 mil. Really killed Milwaukee's chances in 1993.
