PACKERS/BEARS week is here! We'll go over some of the best games in the rivalry's history, and examine a game this weekend that has MAJOR playoff/division/#1 seed implications. Bucks posted one of their worst regular season losses in recent memory in Washington on Monday, and it feels like we're at a real crossroads with this team and Giannis if they can't get it turned around. Badger hoops opens conference play tonight, Badgers/Marquette this weekend in Madison!

Some finishing touches on the Packer win in Detroit on Thanksgiving Day, and our NFL roundup. Bears winning in Philly on Black Friday makes this weekend's Packer/Bear game MASSIVE at Lambeau. Badgers season ends with a thud after some momentum at the end of the season, Bucks get Giannis and Kevin Porter back and need to stack up some December wins. 

Victory Friday! Packers sweep the Lions in Detroit on Thanksgiving. Matt LaFleur's playcalling and aggressiveness were A+++. Toyotathon Jordan Love rolls, Micah dominates, Packers get to 8-3-1. Badgers try to hit the offseason with a TON of momentum, Paul Bunyan's axe on the line tomorrow. Bucks continue to struggle without Giannis, Badger basketball gets a nice win against Providence, and the Brewers apparently have payroll 'concerns' next season?? UGH. 

VICTORY MONDAY! Packers get a little conservative at the end, but the defense dominates JJ McCarthy as the Packers roll to a 23-6 win at Lambeau. Now, a MASSIVE game in Detroit on Thanksgiving. Badgers roll to a 27-10 win over #21 Illinois on Saturday night, feels like some very real momentum is finally building for Luke Fickell. One game left to get the axe on Saturday in Minnesota. Bucks 0-2 without Giannis, need to get one tonight against Portland. 

Packer/Viking weekend! In my lifetime, I think this has been a more bitterly contested rivalry than Packers/Bears. Packers need a win before a short week and road trip to Detroit. Badgers have a LOT to prove in the final two weeks of the season, starting with Senior Night at Camp Randall on Saturday night against Bielema and Illinois. Bucks lose two games and Giannis this week, Woody is back with the Brewers. 

Was it pretty? For sure not. But the Packers got a win they absolutely needed to get, and Jordan Love played one of the best games of his career, even if the box score doesn't show that. Now on to one of the 5 division games remaining on the schedule, the Vikings at Lambeau this weekend. Badgers cover against #2 Indiana, the next two weeks determine my optimism level for Fickell next season. Bucks split the weekend, in Cleveland tonight. 

Packer offense stalls out again on MNF, now a must win in New York against a team with an interim coach and a backup QB starting on Sunday. Plus, an interesting email from a listener about Matt LaFleur, Craig Counsell, and Pat Murphy. Badgers try to build on a top 25 win at #2 Indiana this weekend, Bucks back in NBA Cup action tonight, and Pat Murphy wins his second NL Manager of the Year award.

The Badgers WON A GAME! Against a top 25 team! First one since 2021. I don't think this means Fickell is the guy, but it was nice to enjoy a Badger football Saturday for the first time in a while. Packers tonight against the defending champion Eagles, and the Bucks split the weekend against the Bulls and Rockets, feeling pretty decent overall at 6-4 through 10 games. 

Chris McInstosh officially announces that Luke Fickell will be back as Badger head coach in 2026. I realize the two are tied together, but holy moly. Badgers get set for #23 Washington at Camp Randall on Saturday. Packers get set for the Eagles on Monday night, Tucker Kraft officially ruled out for the season, a quiet trade deadline on Tuesday for the Packers. Giannis knocks down a game winner on Monday, Bucks get blown out on Tuesday, have a big matchup da Bulls tonight at Fiserv. And the Brewers make roster moves on Freddy, Woody, Rhys, and Quintana. 

Packer lay a turd at home against Carolina, losing as a nearly two touchdown favorite. I'm not saying Matt LaFleur needs to be fired, but it's clear in year 7 we've got some 'themes' that aren't ideal in games like yesterday. Also: Tucker Kraft out for the year, might be a bigger deal than the game itself. The World Series ends in a Game 7 classic, one of the best World Series matchups of my lifetime. Bucks also drop an ugly game on Saturday, in Indiana tonight. 

Halloween Edition! Packers take on the Panthers, trying to avoid the classic "trap" game between the Steelers and Eagles matchups. Bucks return to the NBA on NBC on Tuesday with a win against the Knicks, then beat the Warriors WITHOUT Giannis! Ryan Rollins, what a week. World Series gave us an instant classic in Game 3, then the Blue Jays bounce back in Games 4 and 5, one win away from taking down the Dodgers. 

Love and the Packers get the better of Rodgers and the Steelers in primetime! Victory Monday! Love's second half is one of the best of his career, and Tucker Kraft continues a breakout season on National Tight End Day. Waton makes his return as well. Badgers showed some fight at #6 Oregon, and hell, they scored a touchdown! Now on to their 2nd bye of the season. Bucks off to a 2-1 start and their loss at Cleveland last night (while shorthanded) might be the most impressive of the three games. 

Rodgers/Packers Weekend! Aaron has plenty of nice things to say about his time in Green Bay, claims this is not a revenge game (wink), Packers get set to head to Pittsburgh in primetime. Badger football players shed more light on the meeting Chris McIntosh had with the team before the Ohio State game, now head to Oregon to take on the #6 Ducks. Bucks win their opener as the franchise welcomes back Khris Middleton on Wednesday, and the World Series starts tonight. 

Packers salvage the weekend! Micah has his first signature performance in a Packer jersey, 3 sacks and TEN QB pressures. Matt LaFleur goes for it on a big 4th down and the Packers get their first road win of the season. Brewer seasons ends at the hands of Shohei Ohtani on Friday night. Swept away in the NLCS, as Ohtani tosses 6 shutout and homers three times. Unbelievable. Badgers get whooped at home on Saturday, Bucks season starts on Wedesday. 

Brewers are on the brink, down 3-0 to the Dodgers in the NLCS and their offense is no where to be found. Fighting for their lives tonight in Game 4 against Ohtani. Packers head to Arizona, Micah Parsons had some interesting comments on penalties and non-calls against him through 6 weeks. Packers -6.5 in Arizona. Badgers....well they'll play a game on Saturday against #1 Ohio State. Likely to not be pretty. And the Bucks extend AJ Green in advance of the start of the season on Wednesday!

Double Victory Monday! What a night for the Crew! Sent Craig Counsell back to Whitefish Bay with a 3-1 win, punch their ticket to the NLCS. Now, a rematch of 2018 with the Dodgers. Game 1 tonight, right back into the boiler room! Packers get a win against the Bengals, maybe not as convincing as we wanted it to be. Lucas Havrisik fills in for McManus in a BIG way on Sunday, made all 5 of his kicks. Now to to Arizona. Badger football is a tire fire, it's time to swallow the buyout and move on. The Fickell Era is over. 

Brewers get blown out in Game 4, DO OR DIE GAME 5 SATURDAY NIGHT!! Positive vibes only! Packers get set for the Bengals at Lambeau Field on Sunday, they'll face Flacco for a second time in three weeks with two different teams. Badger Homecoming on Saturday night, MAYBE a chance to win? A one last take on Giannis from none other than Charles Barkley. 

Brewers can't finish off the Cubs in 3. Quinn Priester has a nightmare night, but the bullpen kept them in the game, and the Brewers had chances to take it before falling 4-3. Now Game 4 tonight, and I would think, Freddy on the mound at Wrigley. Shams is once again tweeting about Giannis wanting out of Milwaukee, this time at least a specific team, the Knicks, are mentioned. Giannis and Doc both address it after practice on Wednesday. 

Brewers take Game 1 on Saturday, 9-3! Great start from Freddy, only downer was Jackson Chouio reaggravating his hamstring injury. His status is VERY much in doubt for tonight's Game 2. Aaron Ashby will be an opener for Pat Murphy. Packers have their bye week in the review mirror, we've got a few emails on Matt LaFleur to go over. Badgers lose at Michigan on Saturday, they look better but are now 0-8 against ranked teams in the Fickell Era. 

Tough night in Dallas. Defense got carved up for the first time this season, Special Teams did their thing (stinking on ice), and Matt LaFleur basically plays for a tie on the final drive of overtime. Yuck, yuck, yuck. Bye week coming up to try and reset. Brewers notch their 97th win and set a franchise record on Sunday, they're the overall #1 seed and all roads to a World Series go through Am Fam Field. 

Brewers are 1 win (or 1 Phillies loss) from the #1 seed! Also one win away from a franchise record in wins. Final series of the regular season starts tonight. Packers head to Dallas for the Micah Parsons revenge game. Badgers thankfully have the weekend off, but Barry Alvarez called out the fans for their booing and 'Fire Fickell' chants last Saturday. 

ROUGH football weekend in our fair state. The Packers puke one up in Cleveland. Bad day for the offense and special teams. Maybe a wake up call after dominating in Week 1 and Week 2. Now we get set for the Micah Parson return to Dallas this coming Sunday. Badgers not only lose at home on Saturday, they get dominated by Maryland. MARYLAND. Fire Fickell chants in the crowd, vibes are BAD bad in Madison. The good news? The Brewers clinch the NL Central! 3 games up on Philly for the best record in baseball with 6 games to go. Rough news for Woody though on Sunday as he hits the IL just before the playoffs. 

Brewers sweep the Angels! Magic number down to 4 for the division, 6 for the #1 seed. They head to St. Louis tonight. We did get a Ken Rosenthal apology and a clarification on the "Uecker Letter" from the Brewers as well this week. Packers head to Cleveland, got an injury scare with Tucker Kraft but it sounds like he's okay. Badgers try to start the Big Ten schedule off on the right foot at Camp Randall on Saturday. 

Brewers clinch a playoff spot over the weekend, an emotional letter from Bob Uecker read to the team Saturday night by Pat Murphy, magic number to clinch the division is down to 8! Also Ken Rosenthal with a BAD look in the postgame interview on Saturday night on big Fox. Badgers are who we thought they were in Alabama, never in it in a 38-14 loss. We'll recap the NFL, and we're feeling even BETTER about the Packer defense coming out of the weekend. 

Victory FRIDAY! Double Victory week! Packers had chances to blow it open, but basically control the Commanders from beginning to end last night. Parsons was great again, the defense is FLYING. 2-0 start and now a mini-bye before Cleveland in Week 3. Badgers had to Alabama looking for their first signature win in the Fickell Era. Brewers pick a bad time to get swept. Still have the best record in baseball but NEED to bounceback tonight. 

VICTORY MONDAY! Packers win as Parsons has an immediate impact in limited snaps. Now a short week with the Commanders on Thursday night. Brewers sweep the Pirates, Jake Bauers had one of the hits of the year on Friday night, we saw the debut of Pocket Quesadillas that night as well. Cubs lose Saturday and Sunday AND the Phillies lose on Sunday. Badgers turn it around in the second half on Saturday and get to 2-0, now a real test at Alabama.  

PACKER SEASON IS HERE BABY! Packers/Lions, all 53 on the roster practiced on Thursday, big chance to set the tone for the season on Sunday. Brewers drop a frustrating game with a frustrating lineup at home on Thursday, still the best record in baseball by 4.5 games, but injuries are piling up. Three game set in Pittsburgh starts tonight. Badgers host Middle Tennessee, just get a win. 

The Brewers FINALLY reach the end of their 19 game stretch in 18 days. Ugly losses on Sunday and Monday after great wins on Friday and Saturday in Toronto. The lead in the division is 5.5 games. The lead over Philly for the 1 seed in the NL is 4.5 games. September is here: Go time. Micah Parson will wear Curly Lambeau's #1, practices on Monday and looks like he's going to play in Week 1. Good news on Billy Edwards Jr, and Thansis is back with the Bucks. 

Micah Parsons is a Packer. Let me say again: Micah Parsons is a GREEN BAY PACKER! Seismic move yesterday. Field tilting. Gutey you sand baggin' son of a gun! We break down all angles on the trade, the compensation, the contract, all of it. Badgers win their opener but might be cursed at quarterback. Brewers are stumbling in the middle of a grueling stretch, but maintain a 6.5 game division lead. 

Brewers have hit a bit of a rut after being the hottest team in baseball for over a month. The Uecker Celebration of Life on Sunday was a MASTERCLASS, however. Try to get back on the right track tonight, Cubs are hot, the division lead is down to 5 games. Packers win their preseason finale on Saturday, we're less than two weeks away from the regular season, and the Badgers open on Thursday. 

Brewers lose the series (and season series) but get bookend wins in the 5 game set at Wrigley. Went in with an 8 game lead, leave with a 7 game lead. Pretty good spot. Now Willy Adames returns with the Giants, John Axford goes into the Wall of Honor, and we celebrate Bob Uecker on Sunday. Packers and Seahawks have a little dustup at joint practice, preseason finale on Saturday at Lambeau. And we make our 2nd of 5 'BOLD' predictions for the Packer season. 

The Brewers set a new franchise record with 14 win in a row, and ALMOST had #15 in the 9th inning on Sunday. We'll break it down, they have an 8 game lead over the Cubs entering a critical 5 game series at Wrigley today. Packers notch a preseason win, we'll have our first of 5 Bold Packer Predictions, and we'll talk about a new over/under season win total for the Badger and Bucks. 

They did it! The George Webb burger winning streak. Just the 3rd time in franchise history. See if they can match Team Streak tonight in Cincy! Jordan Love has a procedure done on his non-throwing thumb, likely done until the regular season. College football Top 25's are out and the Bucks schedule is released!

This Brewer team defies logic. Three more wins, all come from behind, including rallying from a 5-0 deficit on Sunday. Isaac Collins with a walkoff, Blake Perkins with a walkoff throw, just INCREDIBLE stuff from the best team in baseball. Pirates in town starting tonight. Packers lay a preseason turd at Lambeau, look to bounceback on Saturday in Indy. 

Brewers keep rolling with the best stretch in franchise history! Isaac Collins Rookie of the Month, Andrew Vaughn stays hot, incredible run. Back home with the Mets tonight. Packer football is back on Saturday, sounds like we might see some starters Saturday night, and glowing reviews of the camp Matthew Golden is having. 

Brewers KEEP ROLLING! Pat Murphy: Pocket Pancakes. Offensive mashes its way through Washington, piling up 38 runs on 56 hits (franchise record). Now on to Atlanta. Packer Family Night is in the books, first preseason game already this Saturday!

Brewers take the series from the Cubs, couldn't get the sweep though. Season series tied at 4 with one series left at Wrigley in August. Trade deadline came.....trade deadline went. The Brewers do what they normally do, very little. We'll break that down. Packer Family Night is Saturday and Sterling Sharpe gets inducted into the HOF!

Brewers salvage one against a frisky Marlins team, Alumni Home Run Derby was a smash success, now a showdown with the Cubs and the trade deadline looming on Thursday. Packers had their first padded practice of the summer on Sunday, Family Night this weekend!

The legend, Hulk Hogan, passes away at 71 years old. A fixture of my childhood. We'll discuss that, a HUGE week for the Packers as training camp gets underway and Ed Policy is set to take the reigns as team president. And the Brewers are the BEST TEAM IN BASEBALL BABY! Back home today with the alumni home run derby tonight!

WE'RE GOING STREAKING! 10-games in a row for the Crew! Tied for the division lead, and a half game back of the Tigers for the best record in baseball. Incredible. We'll break down ANOTHER sweep of the Dodger, this time on the West Coast. The Bucks won the title 4 years ago yesterday, Packer camp opens this week, and Scottie Scheffler is starting to look like late 90's/early 2000's Tiger with another Major win over the weekend. 

MLB puts on the best All Star game in recent memory. Brewers open the second half in LA where they are just 1.5 games back of the best record in the NL! Dame is headed back to Portland, TJ Watt signs a record contract in Pittsburgh, and Packer rookies report to camp today. 

Back from vacation! A little 'travel log' episode from our time in Denver, Coors Field and Rocky Mountain National Park, etc. Brewers are ROLLING, winners of 7 in a row heading into the break, 1.5 games back of the best record in the National League. A little bit of MLB controversy with The Miz getting an All Star bid after just 5 starts. Derby is tonight. Cole Anthony sounds like he's headed to Milwaukee and our pick for The Open Championship. 

CHAOS for the Bucks on Tuesday. Myles Turner in, Dame Lillard cut, Gary Harris in, Patty C traded, Jericho Sims back, crazy! And probably not done yet as they rebuild on the fly around Giannis. 

Brewers do drop a heartbreaker to the worst team in baseball on Sunday, but, still a series win and a 4-2 homestand. Two games back of the division, sitting in the #2 NL Wild Card spot, and Woody looks like he's actually ready to return this weekend! Bucks bring back Bobby, tender Ryan Rollins, Kevin Porter Jr opts out as NBA free agency gets underway. 

Bucks draft a scratch off ticket from Serbia with the 47th pick and I LOVE IT. Also sign Mark Sears to a two-way deal. Brewers win a series and Le Miz takes round 1 with Paul Skenes, three game set with the worst team in baseball starts tonight at the Clam. And the Packers introduce their rookies to cheese curds!

Brewers offense explodes over the weekend! Les Miz's second start even better than his first, as the Brewers sweep the Twins in Minnesota for the first time since 1996. Only 3.5 games back in the division now! NBA Finals wrap up with a Game 7 Thunder win, Haliburton goes down with an Achilles injury, just like Dame. And Aaron Rodgers' family is suspect that he's actually married. 

Joey Chestnut is back in the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on the 4th! Brewers split a series at Wrigley with a rain out in the mix on Wednesday. The strike zone on Thursday was BRUTAL, but the Brewers overcome it and Pat Murphy UNLEASHES after the game wraps up. Now on to Minnesota. Jaire finds his landing spot, dates for training camp are set, and the Pacers simply will not die. 

Brewers take a series against the Cards as Willson Contreras gets into it with Rhys Hoskins. MASSIVE series against the Cubs coming up this week. US Open ends with just one golfer under par, and now I have to eat a hat. NBA Finals/Stanley Cup parlay is on life support. 

THE MIZ IS HERE! He's real, and he's spectacular! It's been a lackluster homestand, the Brewers needed that last night. Aaron Civale gets demoted to the bullpen then requests a trade, the Crew leapfrog the Cards for 2nd place in the Central. Giannis specifically says he hopes to get back to the Finals with 'Milwaukee,' and yet Shams doubles down on McAfee on Wednesday morning. Packers wrap up OTA's, Bo Melton at corner??

The Jaire story reaches its conclusion, the Packers release him this morning. Elgton Jenkins is in town for mandatory minicamp this week. Brewers lose the series to the Padres, three pretty tight games at Am Fam Field. Thunder even the NBA Finals series, Stanley Cup back tonight, and a US Open pick as we look to stay hot in golf majors.
