Wiener!

Last night was Collin’s last soccer game. I think the team lost one game all year. I don’t know if they won the championship? Collin keeps getting shots at the goal from the left side of the field meaning he needs to use his left foot. He tries but it is like a “skatter gun” result because he is right footed. Then last night, late in the game he is flying down the right side of the field and he got to use his right foot to attempt a goal. Bingo! It was a nice way to end the season. Make a goal. Enjoy the moment. Go home. Dream about next year. Next is sophomore soccer at North High School.
Now about wieners. The Milwaukee Brewers announced that they were adding a new sausage to their current stable of hot dogs that stage a race at Miller Park (people dressed in costumes) during the baseball games. I don’t know all the current types but I think there is a Brat, a Hot dog, a Polish sausage and something else (maybe a Kielbassa). The new sausage to be added has to do with Latino heritage. It is supposed to be hotter and loved by all hispanics. The new sausage races will be 5 “dogs” instead of 4. Here is the strange part. The new Latino sausage will be introduced Saturday when it attempts its first race. Then you have to wait until 2007 to see the “Latino” on a regular basis. It seems there is a rule in baseball that you can not introduce a new mascot during the current baseball season. Huh? What difference does it make to other clubs? It is a local celebration! Technically the Latino sausage is not really a mascot. Bernie Brewer is the mascot. So all the fans will have to wait until 2007 to see the full compliment of wieners race because of a stupid rule. Maybe they have to check the “green card” status of the Latino dog. The biggest wiener of all is Major League baseball. How can you deny a wiener introduction.?
Now more recognition of wieners.
Collin was mentioned earlier but he is not a wiener. A hot dog maybe, but not a wiener.
Never promise you will take a family member fishing and then not follow through. That is a wiener.
The French have denied Floyd Landis the Tour de France cycling title until they check his positive urine test for testosterone. The French continue to be wieners.
Then if Landis really did use steroid enhancers to get his testosterone level up, he would be a wiener.
I end by mentioning that Debs ends her Wisconsin Vision career today. I think it is about 18 years of her life. It is now on to Wausau, a new career and a new life. That sounds very positive to me! There are no wieners here except maybe Wisconson Vision because they didn’t realize all that Debs did for them. She cared about their customers. Oh, my!
Love,
