Soap stars

Four Brewers players -- pitchers Jeff Suppan and Chris Capuano, infielder J.J. Hardy and outfielder Bill Hall -- will tape a segment tomorrow for an episode of Young & the Restless scheduled to air on June 20. For those of you who watch regularly, they are playing themselves, Brewers players appearing at a political rally for Jack Abbott. (My mom is a HUGE fan of the show). The show is set in the fictional town of Genoa City, which I guess is supposed to be in Wisconsin, which is why Brewers players would be attending a political rally there. Yet for some reason, no one on the show speaks with a Wisconsin accent. If you have ever been to Milwaukee (or Green Bay, or Madison, or Kenosha), you know exactly what I am talking about. ... Horrendous day today, cloudier and more overcast even than yesterday, and it's already cold at 3 o'clock. Brewers should feel right at home. Then again, they have a domed stadium.
