Posted on January 28, 2006 The Iowa State Cyclones dropped their third straight conference home game today, losing to the Kansas Jayhawks 95-85. Once again the outside shooting was pretty bad, but they also got manhandled when they did try to drive into the lane. Turnovers were also a problem in the critical final 10 […]
April 11, 2007 Some good news out of Packerland as Nick Barnett gets his contract extension. Green Bay signed the veteran MLB to a five-year extension yesterday reportedly worth $35 million, including about $11 million in guaranteed money. That sounds just about right considering Barnett’s stats and what some other linebackers have been getting in […]
January 15, 2008 Apparently yesterday at a campaign stop in Florida, former NYC mayor and presidential hopeful Rudi Giuliani was asked to sign a Green Bay Packers hat. Being a NY Giants fan, of course, he refused. I guess he doesn’t care if he gets any votes from the Badger state, or maybe he just […]
November 15, 2007 Alright, maybe the Carolina Panthers are looking more like little kittens this season and maybe Green Bay’s match-up this week isn’t the most exciting one on the schedule, but it could be argued this is the biggest trap game of the year so far. The Panthers come into Lambeau Field with a […]
August 30, 2006 Across the league, some teams are grasping at whatever bottom-of-the-barrel talent they can lay their hands on in a desperate attempt to shore up their rosters — witness the Titans signing Kerry “The Unibomber” Collins and Oakland exhuming Jeff George from the Well of Souls — but in the Green Bay the […]
Posted on September 24, 2006 Wisconsin fought hard and stayed close for a big part of the afternoon, but eventually it was Michigan’s day as the Wolverines rolled to a 27-13 victory over the Badgers. But really, how can you be expected to win against someone like Michigan quarterback Chad Henne? I mean look at […]
Posted on August 22, 2006 It has been a rough week for special teamers in Green Bay and for Nostradamus-like prognosticators. The same day the Press Gazette posited that one of the Packers place kickers would need to be cut, Billy Cundiff was released from the squad, but just days later the paper had Jon […]
Posted on December 19, 2007 The NFL named four Green Bay players to the annual Pro Bowl team this year, including quarterback Brett Favre who was named to his ninth career selection. Favre received the most fan votes in the balloting this year with 842,167 to lead Tom Brady (776,475) and Peyton Manning (740,302). Tony […]
Posted on February 19, 2006 Marquette is really making their presence know in the Big East during their debut season. The Golden Eagles beat #9 Pittsburgh yesterday 84-82, their third victory over a ranked conference opponent this year. Marquette took the lead late in the first half and never let up behind an awesome performance […]
March 28, 2008 First off let me say congratulations to Davidson for winning their NCAA tournament game tonight, but no way are they a better team than the Wisconsin Badgers. I mean, Davidson plays in some kind of makeshift JV league, they’re all 5′9″ and 110 lbs., they all have mommies and daddies who tell […]
Posted on August 31, 2007 There’s a school of thought out there that says the pre-season is a worthless waste of time and talent, and I’m starting to move closer to that line of thinking after Noah Herron suffered a knee injury in last night’s 30-14 loss to the Titans. That brings the Packers down […]
Posted on December 31, 2005 Milwaukee found a way to win last night without the services of TJ Ford, defeating the Knicks 113-108. Mo Williams stepped up and scored 30 points to lead the Bucks, while Michael Redd added 22 points in the winning effort. Ford is expected to be out for another two weeks […]
Posted on January 30, 2008 All season long he’s kept his nose clean, kept his yap shut, and played lights-out football, but given the biggest stage in the world at the Super Bowl Randy Moss decided to unload on the Green Bay Packers. Asked by Tom Silverstein of the Journal Sentinel about his talks with […]
Posted on November 27, 2005 It has been almost a week and all the feasting has helped soothe the wounds from last Monday’s disappointment. Green Bay travels to Philly today with a chance to score another big upset. The Iggles are down in the dumps and fractured in the locker room and the Packers are […]
