October 1, 2007 This week’s roundup of Badgers playing in the NFL starts with first round draft pick Joe Thomas, who is helping to put winning football back on the menu in Cleveland. The Browns on Sunday defeated the Baltimore Ravens 27-13 to advance to 2-2 on the season, and a lot of the credit […]
August 31, 2008 Mike Sherman — remember him? — got off to a rough start as head coach at Texas A&M yesterday, with the Aggies falling to Arkansas State of the Sun Belt Conference 18-14. Aggieland was done in by turnovers and a failure to put the game away after taking a 14-3 lead in […]
September 12, 2006 posted under: effin Bears, Packers, Post-game Great galloping ghosts of Scooter McLean, what a demoralizing turn of events that was. Zero points? I was mentally prepared for a loss to the Bears, but not a shutout fer crying out loud. The Packers couldn’t sustain a drive deeper that the 35-yard line, and […]

January 24, 2006 posted under: Bucks The wheels didn’t just fall off the cart last night at the Bradley Center, I think the horse keeled over and had a heart attack. The Bucks scored a grand total of nine points in the fourth period as the Houston Rockets strolled to a 97-80 victory. Not only […]
November 13, 2005 posted under: Falcons, Packers, Pre-game It’s hard to be hopefull when your team is 1-7 and relying on backups and who-dats in key positions, but that’s what we Packers fans do, right? Never give up. So, today’s matchup with the Falcons will be a big challenge, no doubt. Atlanta is playing well […]
September 16, 2007 posted under: Vikings suck Listening to the Packers game today on WTMJ there were a couple moments that made me burst out laughing at the expense of the Purple People Posse.
