Wait, the Milwaukee Bucks are Good Again?

Word to Manny Pacquiao, I hate losing. Especially when it comes to sports. No lie, when I was a kid my parents had to take me out of a bowling league because I would beat myself up if didn’t roll strikes. So as you can imagine, I have pretty much stopped paying attention to my local NBA team the Milwaukee Bucks.

I’m not like some of my fellow Wisconsinites. I don’t cry when the Packers lose, and I haven’t forgiven the Brewers for their decades long losing skid. So don’t ever expect to see me rocking a cheese-head.

But for some reason, the Bucks’ current round of absolute wackness stings a lot. After all, there was a time in recent history when the Bucks, powered by the wicked treo of Glen “Big Dog” Robinson, Ray Allen and Sam Cassell, were competing for league supremacy.

That’s why it’s so hard for me to believe that Bucks could be back on the road to hecka goodness again. I mean, I knew that their number one draft pick Brandon Jennings was a star. Did you see him in the McDonald’s High-School All Star game a couple years back? He did have the sand to cut his hair into hitop fade years before it is cool again.

But the word on the streets is that they are actually playing good team basketball. I might have to get over my fear of failure long enough to check them out.
