The Bob Uecker Tribute video before yesterday's home opener was A++.
Welp. That was a masterpiece of a tribute. Brian Anderson wrote it, and then to get all of those voices that worked with Uecker over the years to contribute a line or two was perfect. And they even got Pat Hughes! A lot of the guys that worked with Ueck went on to great things with other teams, but Hughes joined Ueck a...

Bucks give up a 4-point play in the final seconds, fall to the Pacers 115-114. SERENITY NOW!
I can say one thing for certain this morning: I do NOT have Bucks Lust. Unbelievable finish last night. UN-BE-LIEV-ABLE. I'll grant you, the Bucks probably didn't deserve to win that game.
