    Very good rating. I wonder what the Brewers-Cubs got on FS Wisconsin Overflow, as the Brewers are a much better draw than the Bucks on a yearly average.

    Good to hear and I am not surprised. Marques Johnson had a great line in game 1 when Thon Maker blocked a shot, "Toronto, meet thy Maker!"

    I hope tonight's atmosphere is great for the Bucks game. I don't have tickets as I have conflicts, but if I didn't I would have made an effort to get to the BMO Harris Bradley Center.

    It is great to follow a young team where the expectations are the stars will be here for a long run.

    Looks like a couple sellouts and a downtown area that will be jumping!
