March 16, 2008 posted under: Badgers basketball, Big Ten tournament, NCAA tournament Cheers to the UW Badgers basketball team for an impressive win over Illinois to add the Big Ten tournament championship to their awards and honors this season. Jeers to the NCAA selection committee for seeding Wisconsin third in the Midwest. Actually I’m not […]
June 9, 2006 Am I the only one who thinks the national press is paying an inordinate amount of attention to who is and who isn’t at Packers training camp this year? The AP, especially, has really stepped up its attendance checking duty in Green Bay, first sounding the alarm that Brett Favre is not […]
August 3, 2007 posted under: Badgers football, polls The 2007 USA TODAY coaches pre-season poll came out today, so I guess that means college football is really underway now. Low and behold the Wisconsin Badgers got a little love from the pollsters and placed seventh in the rankings, behind Michigan but ahead of Ohio State. […]
December 14, 2007 posted under: Packer fans Much love to Brad Bickley, Packer superfan who flies from Taiwan to Green Bay to see three or four games each season. That’s a 20-hour flight each way. You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site. « Packers Dining On Lamb This Weekend
November 11, 2007 posted under: Packers, Post-game, Vikings Packers win! 8-1! The Vikings suck! Wow, what a performance at Lambeau Field today. For the first time this season Green Bay got a convincing win that didn’t require a fourth quarter comeback or the rubbing of any Buddha bellies to ensure victory. The Packers manhandled the […]
September 21, 2006 posted under: Iowa State football Last week I really believed the Cyclones could get it done against Iowa, and for the first half anyway they gave me hope and played like champs. If they hadn’t gone to sleep in the third quarter, who knows if maybe Iowa State could have won that […]
September 10, 2006 posted under: Badgers football It was another solid win for UW football, now 2-0 in this young 2006 season. Despite some mistakes, the Badgers rolled to an easy 34-10 victory over the Western Illinois Leathernecks. John Stocco threw for 227 yards and one touchdown, while PJ Hill continued to power the running […]
October 24, 2007 The hockey season is still quite young, but what a fast start for both the Wisconsin men’s and women’s teams. The two-time NCAA champion Badger women’s team opened their season with six straight wins to extend their winning streak to a record 32 games before falling to St. Cloud State a couple […]
October 26, 2006 All these work days between football weekends are really starting to get me down. Can’t we do something to speed up the week or just get rid of all these non-essential days? I think there ought to be a law, and I’m not talking about a stupid Man Law. Anyway, Saturday is […]
October 30, 2007 posted under: Broncos, Packers, Post-game Freakin’ un-be-lievable. So can we put to rest all those questions about Brett Favre’s arm strength after the whole country watched him hurl two picture perfect bombs for touchdowns at Mile High Invesco last night? The 79-yarder to James Jones in the first quarter was spot on […]
May 8, 2006 Missed this news in the run up to Packers minicamp, but Wisconsin fullback Matt Bernstein joined teammate Brian Calhoun in Detroit last week. Bernstein signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent in time to join the team’s rookie minicamp over the weekend. No word on the Lion’s Web site on […]
April 29, 2006 See, Ted Thompson can make the right call now and again. With the fifth pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, the Packers selected linebacker A.J. Hawk out of Ohio State. (Sorry, The Ohio State University.) The 2005 Lombardi Award winner had 69 tackles last year, 15 behind the line, nine sacks, and […]
March 25, 2008 posted under: free agency, Gus Frerotte, Packers, Quinn Gray Quinn Gray signed with the Houston Texans yesterday, which leaves Gus Frerotte as the only free agent quarterback left on the market who has visited the Green Bay Packers. I’ll admit it, I am officially scared right now. Frerotte has also visited with […]
January 28, 2006 posted under: Bucks, Mo Williams Milwaukee came up with a win over Toronto last night, but Mo Williams paid the price. The back up guard suffered a sprained ankle in the fourth quarter and had to be taken off the court before the Bucks sealed a 108-87 victory over the Raptors. Williams […]
