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/Ma...
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.

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 'conce...
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 tonig...
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 to...
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 Tues...
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 o...
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...
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 ...
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 start...
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 G...
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...

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 Wednes...
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 Fick...
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.
