Memorializing Bud Selig

House Oversight Committee Hearing On The Mitchell Report

From the "Great Moments In Civic Art" department, the Fonzie statue in Milwaukee is getting some company:

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The Brewers are erecting a statue of baseball commissioner Bud Selig outside Miller Park and will unveil it on Aug. 24.

Selig headed a group that bought the Seattle Pilots in bankruptcy court in 1970, moved the franchise to Milwaukee and renamed it the Brewers. He became acting commissioner in 1992 and took the job full-time six years later, turning control of the team over to his daughter, Wendy Selig-Prieb. The Selig family sold the team to a group headed by Mark Attanasio in 2005.

"The Brewers and Miller Park are in this city because of the commissioner's vision and dedicated efforts," Attanasio said Monday.

Well, Selig and the taxpayers in the five-county region around Milwaukee. But mostly the taxpayers in the five-county region around Milwaukee.

over at our place, nothing say "America's Pastime" like a monument to greed, corruption and incompetence. Well done, Milwaukee.

Congrats on your Colts, Prigleyville. Did you enjoy it as much as 'election night'?
I think they should sculpt

The credit loans suppose to be essential for guys, which want to start their organization. In fact, that's not really hard to receive a financial loan.
