Recovering from a 16-0 deficit and actually running with a […]

Niners site 49ersnews.com reports that SF head coach Mike Nolan appears interested in signing the disgruntled former Packer, but they’re still doing their “homework” as negotiations take place. I imagine that’s subtle code […]

November 26, 2005 Nice game for Wisconsin winning 41-24 over Hawaii on the road. OK, the competition wasn’t all that tough, but it was a great performance on both sides of the ball. Calhoun had 149 yards and a touchdown, Stocco threw for two TDs and 191 yards, and the defense came up with two […]
January 13, 2008 First NFC Championship berth in a decade? Yes, the dream season rolls on with an absolutely dominating victory over Seattle yesterday in Green Bay. But that dream started out in nightmarish fashion with two quick turnovers and a 14-0 deficit in the first four minutes of the game. After Ryan Grant fumbled […]
January 23, 2008 Sweet Jebus I had forgotten how much I can’t stand Brent Musburger doing basketball coverage. I realize he’s a sweet, senile old man but can’t someone put him out to pasture already? It was pretty sweet though that Greg Stiemsma got to go ice fishing with Erin Andrews. The good part of […]

December 27, 2005 Milwaukee got last second shot from Bogut and no lights-out performance from Redd as they dropped a 93-108 decision to Orlando last night. TJ Ford led the Bucks with 19 points and Redd scored 17, but poor shooting all around kept Milwaukee trailing most of the night. Milwaukee also committed 15 turnovers […]
