October 27, 2006 posted under: Iowa State football I’ve really been putting off writing anything about the ISU Cyclones because it just makes me damn depressed, but then I suppose that’s what this here bloggy thing is for. I just can’t believe how far this team has fallen and it doesn’t look like they are […]

November 20, 2005 posted under: Badgers football Congrats to JoePa and the Nittany Lions for winning the Big 10 title and a BCS bid. Obviously, it would have been better to see coach Alvarez get another conference championship in his last season, but things don’t always turn out the way they should (see also: Green […]

March 11, 2007 posted under: Badgers basketball, Big Ten tournament That was a damn depressing way for the Big 10 tournament to end, wasn’t it? The Wisconsin Badgers went cold for most of the afternoon and fell again to the Ohio State Buckeyes 66-49 in the final game. It was not the way Wisconsin should […]

November 27, 2005 posted under: Eagles, Packers, Post-game Just when you think it can’t get any worse, you turn on the Packers game and find out it can. I swear they have found all kinds of new and improved ways to lose this season, from turnovers to defensive meltdowns to offensive miscues to special teams […]

May 25, 2007 posted under: NFL, Pre-season, Sean Salisbury It’s not like we need any empirical evidence that former Vikings washout Sean Salisbury is the biggest blowhard on ESPN, but I just happened to overhear this little exchange on SportsCenter. The host/anchor asked John Clayton, “What’s the biggest question in your mind heading into mini […]

January 16, 2008 Good stuff from Brett Favre. The East Coast liberal media isn’t quite sure what to make of deer sausage. When the Packers and Giants take the field in Green Bay for the NFC Championship on Sunday, it will renew an age-old NFL rivalry that stretches back to the leather helmet days of […]

February 17, 2006 posted under: coaching carousel, Mike Sherman Aside from the head coaching experience and a few other things, here’s the big difference between myself and Mike Sherman: I would have taken the $6 million or so from the Packers and gone on as trip around the world, or bought a sailboat and toured […]

January 1, 2006 posted under: Badgers basketball Wisconsin lost its second game of the season last night, falling to the Pitt Panthers 64-73. Playing their only road game this month, the Badgers shot just 37% from the field in the first half and allowed Pittsburgh’s Carl Krauser to score 22 points in the loss. Tucker […]

January 15, 2008 posted under: Giants, NFC Championship, Packers, Rudi Giuliani 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 […]

November 17, 2005 posted under: Blogs, Packers, Pre-game, Vikings Thought I’d search around the blogs to see what Vikings fans had to say about this week’s Monday night game. Vikings Review doesn’t seem to enthused about Minnesota’s changes: “I would be lying if I said I didn’t fear the Packers this week. In Green Bay, […]

April 12, 2007 posted under: Packers The NFL finally released its schedule for the 2007 season with much fanfare yesterday (did ESPN really have to do a two-hour special?) so now we can see what our lives will look like the final four months of the year. For us Packer fans, it looks like we […]

March 23, 2008 posted under: Blogs, Brett Favre I’m a little bit late with this, but Mike Cade has an excellent Brett Favre post at Transmissions from Grudge Harbor. It’s worth the read if for no other reason than it has the best title ever: Hell Bent 4 Leather Big props, mixed with feelings of […]

June 9, 2006 posted under: Packers, training camp 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 […]
