Yea, I'm a Wisconsiner

I'm not actually a Wisconsiner... meaning I never truly lived in Wisconsin except for a month or so right after I was born. However, both my parents grew up in Wisconsin therefore I was raised to be a die hard Wisconsin fan. And, I don't know if you've heard lately, but these past couple weeks have been the best weeks in Wisconsin nation history! I'm talking about sports of course! Every where we turn right now Wisconsin sports teams are tearing it up! 
Off the heals of last years Superbowl XLV victory the Packers are on their way to a repeat. The record 5-0 speaks for it'e self. Unfortunately I haven't been able to go to a Packers game yet but hopefully in the next couple months I'll be able to go watch the wonders of Aaron Rodgers and the rest of the Packers unstoppable offense!
While we're talking about football I might as well talk about the Wisconsin Badgers, also 5-0 heading to a Rose Bowl or hopefully better! Russel Wilson, the senior quarterback in his first year at Wisconsin, is having an insane season so far, and if he keeps playing this way, is definitely heading towards the NFL. Again I haven't been able to say the Badgers play yet but I know for a fact that I'll be able to see them play at least once, and twice if they make the Rose Bowl. 
The icing on the cake in Wisconsin are the Milwaukee Brewers. With an unbelievable line up at the plate, a group of pitchers any team would die for, a bullpen to finish the game off when the pitchers get tired, and a defense that can stop almost everything the pitchers give up, this team is on its way to the world series without a doubt. I have luckily been able to see this dream team in work a couple times already this postseason. Last week in a win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, and yesterday in the win over the St. Louis Cardinals, and from what I've seen, there is no doubt that the Brewers are the best team in the league right now.
Yea, Jealous aren't you. We've got more (good) football than Minnesota could ever dream of, and we've got a world series contending baseball team to top it off. When all of y'all feel like converting just let me know. The Wisconsin nation accepts new fans with open arms!
