    Big Rig Big League sportswriter; affiliates with Brewers

    Move is temporary; crossing Wisconsin state line is emotional event for die-hard Cubs fan. But unthinkable events of week, good Wisconsin summer sausage, and circumstances dictate he now will, for the moment, root for Milwaukee

    By Big Al Owens, sportswriter

    This past week I got a load headed to Milwaukee.

    At first I thought that this was cruel fate as the Milwaukee Brewers are a big rival of the Cubs!

    As I headed up I-94 and crossed the Wisconsin state line I had mixed emotions. Die-hard fans such as I am have a weird superstitions about these kinds of things. I immediately noticed by the chill bumps on my arm that the temperature up North is much different than here at home.
