August 30, 2008 Here’s one of those moments that makes you very happy the Green Bay Packers franchise is a publicly-owned non-profit corporation. Real estate developer Ed Roski Jr. is in the market for an NFL team to take up residence in a new stadium he is planning to build in City of Industry outside […]
February 29, 2008 Since it is Friday afternoon I figured it’s a good time to post something about beer, even if it is old news. I discovered while updating the layout of the site and testing links that the Huber Brewery in Monroe, Wisconsin, is no longer. The brewery and its brands were all purchased […]
February 21, 2006 posted under: Badgers, Carla MacLeod, Molly Engstrom, Olympics Out of the field of athletes boasting a connection to the Badger State, Molly Engstrom became the first to win a medal in this year’s Winter Olympics. Engstrom, a native of Siren, WI, and a UW Badger, helped the US women’s hockey team win […]
March 5, 2008 How about we start today off with some good news, eh? And this picture of Buckingham Badger always makes me feel a little bit better about everything. Last night while most of us were still trying to come to terms with Brett Favre retiring, Ohio State defeated Purdue 80-77 in overtime, leaving […]
January 29, 2006 posted under: Bucks, Mo Williams Looks like Mo Williams will be out of action for two weeks. The Journal Sentinel is reporting today that the Bucks backup guard will probably miss the next six games after suffering a sprained ankle in Friday’s victory over the Raptors, a game in which he scored […]
March 17, 2007 posted under: Packers, Randy Moss I suppose as long as Brett Favre is wearing No. 4 for the Packers there will always be rumors about Green Bay making a play for a celebrity wide receiver. Last year ESPN’s Chris Mortensen stood firm by the story that Ted Thompson was ready to make […]
November 29, 2005 posted under: Admirals The Milwaukee Admirals knocked off the division-leading Houston Aeros 3-0 in AHL action the other night. The Admirals have won 11 of 13 after opening the season with four loses and are now tied for third in the West Division with the Peoria Rivermen. I just love the AHL […]
December 10, 2005 posted under: Hawkeyes suck, Iowa State basketball Yeah! ISU put the hurt on the Schmuckeyes once again last night, winning 72-60 over the 13th ranked basketball team in the country. Stinson led the team with 20 points while Clark pumped in 17. Hubalek hauled down eight rebounds and added 13 points of […]
November 10, 2005 posted under: Adrian Klemm, injury report, Packers, Robert Ferguson Looks like Robert Ferguson won’t be ready to play when the Packers travel to Atlanta. He sat out practice yeterday and probably won’t be good to go for another week, when Green Bay hosts Minnesota on Monday night. On the offensive line, the […]
August 29, 2008 So close yet so far. The Packers lost to the Titans 23-21 in their pre-season finale, but then again Green Bay is 2-5 in final exhibition action against Tennessee so the final score matters very little. What does matter is how the players played, who will make the squad based on their […]
January 26, 2006 posted under: Bucks If there is such a thing as a moral victory in pro basketball, I think Milwaukee got one tonight. I doubt anyone (save for SM at Bucks View) had high hopes for the defensively-challenged Bucks in Detroit, I know I didn’t, but they took the former NBA champions into […]
August 14, 2008 Defensive lineman Johnny Jolly obviously has a lot on his mind these days, with his recent drug arrest in Houston, rehabbing from injury, and just the pressure of playing for an elite team in the NFL. But he’s certainly not helping his case any by getting up in the face of Mark […]
November 15, 2006 posted under: Badgers football, BCS, Elisha Cuthbert, polls In his column today, ESPN’s Rod Gilmore describes the Wisconsin Badgers as “the girl next door” and argues this is why they won’t get invited to a BCS bowl game this year. Mr. Gilmore apparently has never seen the film The Girl Next Door, […]
May 15, 2007 posted under: Brett Favre, Packers, Randy Moss, Ted Thompson I just wanted to send out a big thank you to everyone involved in the Brett Favre – Ted Thompson affair for making my life as a Green Bay Packer fan so much better. We’ll probably never know the “truth” about what went […]
