Last week, we wrote that the Brewers's Playoff berth might put a little pressure on the Packers organization's wallet. 

Well, we were totally wrong.

The Brewers, in the deciding game 4 of the NLDS, pulled a 12.7 TV Nielsen rating in the Milwaukee market.  The Packers? More than double at 28.7.

43,934 watched the Brewers live, 70,616 watched the Packers at Lambeau.

Even with the most important game in 18 years, 2-1 Wisconsinites prefer the Packers to the Brewers.
