Welcome in to the Brew Hoop Game Thread for the Oct. 18 matchup between the Milwaukee Bucks and Memphis Grizzlies in La Crosse, WI. There is no local TV for the contest, but AM 620 WTMJ will broadcast the action on the radio. This season game threads will be posted one hour before tip for each game. As for other bits of news and notes, here you go.

Bring Us Your (Good) Comments
The Best Of Brew Hoop Game Threads series will return this season, and here is how it all works. You type smart or funny things, and we will collect them and enjoy them in our recaps and in a weekly series. Comments will still primarily be pulled from the Game Thread(s), but this year I'm also going to experiment with Twitter comments. If you lurk on the site or like to spend time watching the games and monitoring Twitter, you can get involved by using the #BrewHoop hashtag for your Bucks-based tweets.

Daniel's laughter and/or my breathlessness probably capture at least 80 percent of your initial feelings, right? It's part of the Drew Gooden experience, I suppose. His mother is probably very proud of him, but not for this.
